Modeling the effects of shot-peened residual stresses and inclusions on microstructure-sensitive fatigue of Ni-base superalloy componentsMusinski, William D. 2014 August 1900 (has links)
The simulation and design of advanced materials for fatigue resistance requires an understanding of the response of their hierarchical microstructure attributes to imposed load, temperature, and environment over time. For Ni-base superalloy components used in aircraft jet turbine engines, different competing mechanisms (ex. surface vs. subsurface, crystallographic vs. inclusion crack formation, transgranular vs. intergranular propagation) are present depending on applied load, temperature, and environment. Typically, the life-limiting features causing failure in Ni-base superalloy components are near surface inclusions. Compressive surface residual stresses are often introduced in Ni-base superalloy components to help retard fatigue crack initiation and early growth at near surface inclusions and shift the fatigue crack initiation sites from surface to sub-surface locations, thereby increasing fatigue life. To model the effects of residual stresses, inclusions, and microstructure heterogeneity on fatigue crack driving force and fatigue scatter, a computational crystal plasticity framework is presented that imposes quasi-thermal eigenstrain to induce near surface residual stresses in polycrystalline Ni-base superalloy IN100 smooth specimens with and without nonmetallic inclusions. In addition, the effect of near surface inclusions in notched Ni-base superalloy components on MSC growth and fatigue life scatter was investigated in this work. A fatigue indicator parameter (FIP)-based microstructurally small crack (MSC) growth model incorporating crack tip/grain boundary effects was introduced and fit to experiments (in both laboratory air and vacuum) for the case of 1D crack growth and then computationally applied to 3D crack growth starting (1) from a focused ion beam (FIB) notch in a smooth specimen, (2) from a debonded inclusion located at different depths within notched components containing different notch root radii, and (3) from inclusions located at different depths relative to the surface in smooth specimens containing simulated shot peened induced residual stresses. Computational predictions in MSC growth rate scatter and distribution of fatigue life were in general accordance with experiments.
The general approach presented in this Dissertation can be used to advance integrated computational materials engineering (ICME) by predicting variation of fatigue resistance and minimum life as a function of heat treatment/microstructure and surface treatments for a given alloy system and providing support for design of materials for enhanced fatigue resistance. In addition, this framework can reduce the number of experiments required to support modification of material to enhance fatigue resistance, which can lead to accelerated insertion (from design conception to production parts) of new or improved materials for specific design applications. Elements of the framework being advanced in this research can be applied to any engineering alloy.

Comportement mécanique haute température du superalliage monocristallin AM1 : étude in situ par une nouvelle technique de diffraction en rayonnement synchrotron / High-temperature creep behaviour of a Ni-based single-crystal superalloy : in situ experiment by a new technique using far field synchrotron X-rays diffractionTréhorel, Roxane 19 February 2018 (has links)
Les superalliages monocristallins base nickel sont largement utilisés dans les parties chaudes (aux alentours de 1000°C) des turbines aéronautiques au vu de leur bonne résistance thermomécanique. Pendant le stade II du fluage leur microstructure est formée d’une matrice/couloirs γ (CFC) et de précipités en radeaux γ’ (L12). Le but de cette étude est de mieux comprendre la plasticité de ces matériaux, en particulier celle de l’alliage de 1ère génération AM1. Afin de suivre son comportement mécanique durant des transitions rapides, une nouvelle technique expérimentale par diffraction en transmission des rayons X (synchrotron) a été développée. L’utilisation d’une caméra en champ lointain permet d’enregistrer (une acquisition prend 7 secondes) la tache de diffraction (200) de chacune des deux phases, et donc l’évolution en temps réel du désaccord paramétrique entre les deux phases. En utilisant un modèle mécanique simplifié, il est possible d’en déduire les contraintes internes et la déformation plastique de chaque phase. Une campagne d’essai sur la ligne ID11 de l’ESRF a été réalisée avec cette technique. Deux types d’échantillons présentant une microstructure initiale différente, obtenues par des traitements thermiques adaptés, ont été testés. Ils ont été soumis in situ à des essais de fluage à température constante avec des sauts de contrainte. Après essai, les échantillons ont été caractérisés par MET et MEB afin de déterminer leur microstructure, vérifier les désorientations des échantillons, cartographier la concentration de certains éléments et évaluer la densité de dislocations au sein des radeaux γ’. Dans les couloirs γ, la propagation des dislocations nécessite une contrainte de Von Mises supérieure à la contrainte d’Orowan, et la densité de dislocations mobiles augmente avec la déformation plastique. Le mécanisme limitant la déformation plastique par montée de la phase γ’ est vraisemblablement l’entrée des dislocations dans les radeaux. Les conséquences déduites de cette hypothèse sont détaillées ainsi que le comportement mécanique du matériau résultant / Nickel-based single crystal superalloys are extensively used for turbines blades (above 1000°C) of aeronautical engines because of their good thermomechanical properties. During stage II of creep, their microstructure consists of a γ matrix (fcc) and raft precipitates γ’ (L12). The aim of this work is to improve the understanding of plasticity of this type of alloy, especially the first generation AM1 superalloy. To follow his mechanical behaviour during fast transients, a new experimental setup using synchrotron radiation diffraction in transmission geometry was developed. A far field camera allows the recording of the (200) diffraction spot of each phase, i.e. the evolution of the lattice misfit in real time (one acquisition takes 7 seconds). By using a simple mechanical model, it is possible to determine the internal stresses and the plastic strains for both phases. An experimental campaign was performed at ID11 beamline of ESRF using this new technique. Two sample types with different initial microstructure (obtained with adapted heat treatments) were tested in situ. They underwent load jumps under high-temperature creep conditions. Further post mortem investigations by SEM and TEM were performed to determine their microstructure, to check on misorientations, map some elements composition and estimate the dislocation density within the γ’ rafts. In the γ channels, dislocation propagation occurred when the Von Mises stress was larger than the Orowan stress. The mobile dislocations density increases with γ plastic strain. The limiting mechanism for γ’ plastic strain is presumably the entry of dislocation within the γ’ rafts. Under this assumption we deduce the mechanisms of interactions between dislocations, vacancies, and pores within the material, and the mechanical behaviour of the γ’ rafts
