Effects of Distributed Surface Cracks on Corrosion Fatigue Lives of Specimens with Different Diameters
抄録
Rotary bending fatigue tests were carried out in a sodium chloride aqueous solution by using specimens of 6 and 12 mm diameters in order to investigate the effects of the distributed surface cracks on corrosion fatigue lives or crack growth periods N_p. N_p for specimens of 6 mm diameter decreased with increasing crack density or sum total of crack lengths. On the other hand, N_p for specimens of 12 mm diameter increased with increasing crack density or sum total of crack lengths. These effects of the distributed surface cracks on the crack growth period N_p were explained by taking into account both crack coalescence behaviors and stress relaxation effects at cracked parts.
