- Abstract
ABSTRACT The effect of notch types and stress concentration factors ( Kt) on low cycle fatigue life and cracking of the DZ125 directionally solidified superalloy has been experimentally investigated. Single-edge notched specimens with V and U type geometries were tested at 850 °C with stress ratio R = 0.1. High temperature in situ optical method was used to observe crack initiation and short crack propagation. Scanning electron microscope observation of fracture was used to analyse the failure mechanism. The results reveal that fatigue resistance decreases with Kt increasing from 1.76 to 4.35. The ratcheting is found to be affected by both Kt and the nominal stress from the displacement-force curve. In situ observations indicate that the cracking does not occur at the notch apex but at the location where the max principal stress or Hill's stress is the highest. According to the scanning electron microscope observations, the failure of the notched specimens strongly depends on the anisotropy microstructures.
