Microstructurally sensitive crack closure

微視組織에 敏感한 균열닫힘 현상

In order to obtain the microstructure improving fatigue crack propagation resistance of steels, fatigue crack propagation behavior of martensite-ferrite dual phase steels is investigated in terms of crack deflection and crack closure. The results obtained are as follows; (1) .DELTA.K$_{th}$ and fatigue crack propagation resistance in low .DELTA.K region increases with increasing hardness of second phase. But the difference of this crack propagation resistance decreases with increasing .DELTA.D. (2) In low .DELTA.K region, crack closure increases with increasing hardness of second phase, when the materials have all the sam volume fractionof second phase, or when yield strengths are similar in all materials. (3) These crack closure can be explained by fracture surface roughness due to crack deflection.n.

본 논문에서는 강의 피로균열진전거동과 미시조직과의 관계를 밝히기 위한 연 구의 일환으로 제이상 마르텐사이트 중에 모상 페라이트가 존재하는 복합조직강을 준 비하여 이들 강의 제이상 경도변화에 따른 피로균열진전저항을 균열휨과 균열닫힘을 통하여 검토하였다.
