    Notes: Abstract— The paper reports the results of a comprehensive research project concerning fatigue life prediction in fillet welded joints. Geometry variables such as main plate thickness, radius of curvature at the weld toe and leg to leg distance were analysed in detail. Fatigue life computations were carried out for semi-elliptical cracks using appropriate FE techniques. The range of results covered several types of welded joints loaded in tension and in bending. A comparison of results was made using two methods of stress intensity determination. Experimental data was also obtained and that included measurements of weld toe radius, monitoring of crack shape and S-N curves. Correlation of results with the theoretical predictions gave generally good agreement. A set of fatigue design curves for fillet welded joints is proposed and in these the designer can introduce the geometry of the weldment.

    Notes: Exhaust pipes of naval gas turbines are made of thin wall tubing of stainless steel grade AISI 316L. The tubes are fabricated by butt welding of different sections with longitudinal and circumferential joints. The plate thickness is about 4.0 mm, and the working temperature varies between 600 °C and 400 °C in the critical zones of the pipe, in the lower and central areas, respectively. The loadings in the tube induce high-temperature fatigue and creep-fatigue cracks have nucleated and propagated in the tube near some welded joints. The paper presents FCGR data obtained in CT specimens of used material taken from the pipes and tested at RT, 335, 500 and 600 °C. Preliminary creep data obtained in tension, in thin-sheet specimens (about 4 mm thickness), also taken from the conduct wall and tested at 500, 550 and 600 °C are also given. These results are crucial to perform a fatigue-creep interaction life assessment of the critical parts of the structure in the near future. Finally, the paper presents results of research work to investigate carbide precipitation and formation in virgin thin-sheet specimens subjected to several types of thermal exposures. In some cases, 3–4 d was the time interval between exposures. Grain size measurements were carried out together with microstructural observations in the SEM. The influence of time, temperature and time interval between thermal exposures was assessed comparing the microstructures.

    Notes: The paper presents the results of fatigue life predictions in non-loaded carrying tee and cruciform joints and also longitudinal seams of tubes, obtained with 2D and 3D stress intensity factor solutions. The 2D computational method uses the standard Bueckner weight function solution to obtain the 2D values of the stress magnifying factor MK. In the 3D approach a modified 3D weight function solution was used in conjunction with the Raju and Newman base stress intensity formulation.Comparison of results is shown between the 2D and 3D fatigue life predictions and experimental results of fatigue strength obtained by the authors. Results are also given showing the influence of crack aspect ratio, thickness and the ratio of tube radius to tube thickness.

    Notes: Rehabilitation of a welded structure, which involves repair of cracked joints, is achieved when the local treatment for repair gives a fatigue strength in the joint equal or above the fatigue strength of the uncracked original detail. If the treatment is properly applied the rehabilitation of the detail is assured, and the nature of the weld toe improvement methods can produce a joint, after repair, with a fatigue strength and residual life greater than the initial detail. The paper presents the results obtained on a fatigue study on the rehabilitation of non-load carrying fillet welded joints loaded in bending at the main plate and with fatigue cracking at the weld toes of the attachment in the main plate and though the plate thickness. Residual stresses were measured at the surface, with X-ray diffraction. The residual stresses induced by hammer peening at the weld toe were found to be greater along the longitudinal direction of the plate than in the transverse direction. The peak residual stresses near the weld toe were found to be close to yield in compression, justifying the great benefit of hammer peening. Results of a derived gain factor, g, in fatigue life were obtained as a function of the crack depth repaired by hammer peening.

    Notes: A numerical prediction of the life of a gas turbine model disc by means of the finite-element technique is presented and the solution is compared with an experimental rim-spinning test. The finite-element method was used to obtain the K solution for a disc with two types of cracks, both at the notch root of the blade insert and located in the corner and in the centre. A crack aspect ratio of (a/c) = 1 was assumed. The fracture mechanics parameters J-integral and K were used in the assessment, which were computed with linear elastic and elastic–plastic material behaviour. Using a crack propagation program with appropriate fatigue-creep crack growth-rate data, previously obtained in specimens for the nickel-based superalloy IN718 at 600 °C, fatigue life predictions were made. The predicted life results were checked against experimental data obtained in real model discs. The numerical method, based on experimental fatigue data obtained in small laboratory specimens, shows great potential for development, and may be able to reduce the enormous costs involved in the testing of model and full-size components.

    Notes: The paper presents the results of an experimental and numerical study on the fatigue behaviour of cruciform load carrying joints made from the duplex stainless steel and failing from the weld root through the weld metal. Fatigue crack growth (FCG) data, obtained in specimens of the weld metal, are presented, as well as threshold data, both obtained for R= 0 and 0.5. The influence of stress ratio is discussed, and the FCGR results are compared with data for low carbon structural steels. S–N data were obtained in the joints, both for R= 0.05 and 0.5, and the fatigue cracking mechanisms were analysed in detail with the SEM. It was found that the cracks propagated very early in the lifetime of the joints, under mixed mode conditions (I + II), but the mode I component was found to be predominant over mode II. The geometries of the cracks were defined in detail from measurements taken in the fracture surfaces. A 2D FE analysis was carried out for the mixed mode inclined cracks obtained at the weld root, and the J-integral formulations were obtained as a function of crack length and crack propagation angle. The values of the crack propagation angle, θi, were obtained for the Jmax conditions, and it was found that, in the fatigue tests, the cracks propagated in directions very close to the predicted directions of maximum J. KI and KII formulations were obtained, and the KI data were compared with the formulations given in the PD6493 (BS7910) document, and some differences were found. A more general formulation for K under mixed mode conditions was derived. The derived K solutions were applied to predict the fatigue lives of the joints under crack propagation, and an extremely good agreement was found with the experimental results obtained in the fatigue tests.

    Notes: The influence of stress state on fatigue crack growth in nickel-base superalloys at high temperature is considered, based on studies in corner crack specimens of Inconel 718 at 600 °C. At high frequency and low R, cycle-dependent trans-granular crack growth occurs along the whole crack front, and growth rates are similar at the surface and within the interior of specimens, maintaining the original quarter-circular shape. For conditions of low frequency and high R, increased crack growth rate per cycle is observed with the crack tunnelling ahead at the centre. A time-dependent intergranular crack propagation mode occurs in the plane strain interior, attributed to an oxidation mechanism, whereas near the surfaces under plane stress, a trans-granular cyclic plasticity mechanism is observed. It is proposed that in addition to frequency and R, that stress state influences the competition between the mechanisms controlling crack growth and the transition between them: plane strain in the interior favouring an oxidation-controlled intergranular cracking mechanism as compared with the plane stress surfaces where cyclic plasticity dominates. An FEM study suggests that this influence of stress state is not associated with variation of ΔK along the crack front.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Une solution analytique basée sur la théorie des poutres non linéaires a été établie pour calculer la valeur cyclique de l'intégrale de contour J dans les poutres sujettes à charge cyclique et à propagation de fissure de fatigue au delà de la limite élastique lorsque des déflections importantes, dues à un fluage cyclique, se présentent. La solution a été appliquée au cas particulier d'éprouvette double Cantilever. Lorsque la force de cisaillement et la rotation à l'extrémité de la fissure sont prises en considération, on a trouvé un bon accord entre la déflection de fluage cyclique calculée et la déflection de fluage cyclique expérimentale due à la croissance de la fissure de fatigue dans l'éprouvette DCB. La valeur cyclique de J, ΔJ a été trouvée dépendante parmi d'autres facteurs des propriétés de fluage cyclique du matériau obtenues lors d'essais de charge cyclique sur des éprouvettes cylindriques pleines. L'accord entre les valeurs de ΔJ calculées et les valeurs expérimentales a également été trouvé satisfaisant.
    Notes: Abstract An analytical solution, based on non-linear beam theory, has been derived to compute the cyclic values of the J contour integral in beam specimens subjected to load cycling and fatigue crack growth above the yield point where large deflections due to cyclic creep occur. The solution has been applied to the particular case of the contoured DCB specimen. When the shear force and rotation at the crack tip were considered the agreement between the computed and the experimental cyclic creep deflection, due to fatigue crack growth on the contoured DCB specimen, were good. The cyclic value of J, ΔJ, was found to be dependent, among other factors, on the cyclic creep properties of the material obtained in load-cycling tests on plain cylindrical specimens. The agreement between the computed ΔJ values and the experimental ones were also good.
