Metallography of High Temperature Fatigue

  • Chapter
High Temperature Fatigue

Summary

The vast majority of metallographic studies of fatigue have been concerned with room-temperature cycling and, generally, with elementary materials such as pure metals and simple alloys. In this chapter, using ambient temperature fatigue as a baseline, recent developments in the observation and understanding of high temperature fatigue are explored, up to and including crack initiation. Both the effects of microstructure on cyclic response and the influence of cyclic strain on microstructure are examined, to highlight the requirements for improved fatigue resistance. Emphasis has been placed on realistic, but complex, cycles where interactions between fatigue and creep are possible, and also on commercial alloys, in particular those based on aluminium and titanium. Data in these areas are limited, and it is concluded that Metallography has yet to reach its full potential in assisting life prediction of components and structures in service.

This chapter was written whilst the author was Reader in Metallurgy in the Department of Mechanical Engineering, University of Bristol, UK.
