The effects of environment and microstructure on low cycle fatigue (LCF) behaviors of CF8M stainless steels containing 11% of ferrites were investigated in a $310^{\circ}C$ deoxygenated water environment. The reduction of LCF life of CF8M in a $310^{\circ}C$ deoxygenated water was smaller than 316LN stainless steels. Based on the microstructure and fatigue surface analyses, it was confirmed that the hydrogen induced cracking contributed to the reduction in LCF life for CF8M as well as for 316LN. However, many secondary cracks were found on the boundaries of ferrite phases in CF8M, which effectively reduced the stress concentration at the crack tip. Because of the reduced stress concentration, the accelerated fatigue crack growth by hydrogen induced cracking was less significant, which resulted in the smaller environmental effects for CF8M than 316LN in a $310^{\circ}C$ deoxygenated water.

Low cycle fatigue tests are performed on the Inconel 617 that be used for a hot gas casing. The relation between strain energy density and numbers of cycles to failure is examined in order to predict the low cycle fatigue life of Inconel 617. The life predicted by the strain energy method is found to coincide with experimental data and results obtained from the Coffin-Manson method. Also the cyclic behavior of Inconel 617 is characterized by cyclic hardening with increasing number of cycle at room temperature.

영활화혁발전소 보일러헤다 재질인 1Cr0.5Mo강의 파형에 따른 저주기 피로특성을 규명하고자 상온(298K) 및 고온(177K)의 삼각파와 사인파형 저주기 피로시험을 수행하였고 소성에너지법을 이용하여 파형에 따른 소성변형에너지와 피로수명과의 +관계를 분석하였다. 저주기 피로시 재료내부의 소성변형에너지를 히스테리시스루프의 면적으로 계산하여 구하였으며 이를통해 저주기 피로수명을 예측하였고 Coffin-Manson법 및 변형률분할법을 이용한 저주기 피로수명 결과와 서로 잘 일치하였다. 또한 상온 및 고온에서 피로반복수의 증가와 함께 재료가 반봅연화됨을 알 수 있었다.

For many years, high-strength nickel-base superalloys have been used to manufacture turbine blades because of their excellent performance at high temperatures. The prediction of fatigue life of superalloys is important for improving the efficiency of the turbine blades. In this study, low cycle fatigue tests are performed for different values of total strain and temperature. The relations between strain energy density and number of cycles before failure occurs are examined in order to predict the low cycle fatigue life of IN738LC super alloy. The results of low cycle fatigue lives predicted by strain energy methods are found to coincide with experimental data and with the results obtained by the Coffin-Manson method.

질소의 함량을 0.04%~0.15% 까지 변화시킨 316L 스테인레스 강으로 공기 중에서 저주기 피로시험을 수행하였다. 전체변형범위 1%, 변형속도 2$\times$$10^3$/sec, 삼각파로 상온 ~$600^{\circ}C$ 온도범위에서 시험을 수행하였다. 상온에서는 사이클이 진행됨에 따라서 연화가 계속해서 발생하지만 온도가 증가하면 초기에 경화가 발생한다. 피로시험 초기에 경화되는 정도와 saturation 응력은 온도가 증가하면 증가한다. 이러한 경화현상은 동적변형시효에 의해서 발생되는 것으로 판명되었다. 질소를 첨가하면 강도는 증가하지만 경화는 감소되었다. 질소에 의한 경화의 감소는 질소가 동적변형시효를 억제하기 때문이다.

In this paper, we studied low cycle fatigue behavior of laser welded sheet metal that used automobile body panel. Specimens were manufactured as weld condition and sheet metal using automobile manufacturing company at present. For to know mechanical properties, micro Vicker's hardness test was performed of specimens. But, we can't confirm mechanical properties of weld bead and heat affected zone because laser weld makes very narrow weld bead and heat affected zone than other welding method. Therefore, we performed low cycle fatigue test with similar weldment, dissimilar weldment, similar thickness and dissimilar weldment, and dissimilar thickness and dissimilar weldment for fatigue properties of thickness and welding direction. As well, we analysis stress distribution of base metal, weld bead, and heat affected zone according to strain load using finite element method.

In this study low cycle fatigue (LCF) behavior of 12Cr steel at high temperature are described. Secondly, comparisons between predicted lives and experimental lives are made for the several sample life prediction models. Two minute hold period in either tension or compression reduce the number of cycles to failure by about a factor of two. Twenty minute hold periods in compression lead to shorter lives than 2 minute hold periods in compression. Experiments showed that life predictions from classical phenomenological models have limitations. More LCF experiments should be pursued to gain understanding of the physical damage mechanisms and to allow the development of physically-based models which can enhance the accuracy of the predictions of components. From a design point-of-view, life prediction has been judged acceptable for these particular loading conditions but extrapolations to thermo-mechanical fatigue loading, for example, require more sophisticated models including physical damage mechanisms.

Low cycle fatigue characteristics are very important in the development of automobile suspension parts. Fatigue properties using the strain life approach are usually obtained from low cycle fatigue tests. However, low cycle fatigue testing requires a lot of time and cost. In the current study, an attempt to estimate low cycle fatigue properties of high strength steel sheet from tensile test and tensile simulations is performed. In addition, low cycle fatigue testing was conducted to compare the fatigue properties obtained from tensile testing and simulations. In conclusion, the results effectively predict the low cycle fatigue properties. However, some deviations still exist.
