Abstract [en]

Fatigue strength is an important material property for many tooling applications, particularly in high performance applications. The research in Very High Cycle Fatigue (VHCF) has demonstrated that the traditional fatigue limit may not be valid for many materials subjected to 107 or more load cycles. Presently, both materials data and mechanism knowledge is missing on VHCF applications, even though many components are run at these life lengths. The fatigue strength is commonly controlled by different defects initiating failure, as in well controlled laboratory experiments may be internal inclusions. In this paper VHCF experimental testing was accomplished by the use of ultrasonic fatigue testing run at 20 kHz allowing long life evaluation within reasonably short test time. Fatigue strength, failure mechanisms and inclusion content were accordingly assessed. Fatigue strength data on H13 tool steel are presented, as well as a statistical approach considering available defect distribution and load distribution in the critically stressed volume, important to both steel supplier and end-user.

Abstract [en]

The presence of different types of defects is an important reality for manufacturers and users of engineering materials. Generally, the defects are either considered to be the unwanted products of impurities in the raw materials or to have been introduced during the manufacturing process. In high-quality steel materials, such as tool steel, the defects are usually non-metallic inclusions such as oxides or sulfides.

Traditional methods for purity control during standard manufacturing practice are usually based on the light optical microscopy scanning of polished surfaces and some statistical evaluation of the results. Yet, as the steel manufacturing process has improved, large defects have become increasingly rare. A major disadvantage of the traditional quality control methods is that the accuracy decreases proportionally to the increased rarity of the largest defects unless large areas are examined.

However, the use of very high cycle fatigue to 109 cycles has been shown to be a powerful method to locate the largest defects in steel samples. The distribution of the located defects may then be modelled using extreme value statistics.

This work presents new methods for determining the volume distribution of large defects in high-quality steels, based on ultrasonic fatigue and the Generalized Extreme Value (GEV) distribution. The methods have been developed and verified by extensive experimental testing, including over 400 fatigue test specimens. Further, a method for reducing the distributions into one single ranking variable has been proposed, as well as a way to estimate an ideal endurance strength at different life lengths using the observed defects and endurance limits. The methods can not only be used to discriminate between different materials made by different process routes, but also to differentiate between different batches of the same material.

It is also shown that all modes of the GEV are to be found in different steel materials, thereby challenging a common assumption that the Gumbel distribution, a special case of the GEV, is the appropriate distribution choice when determining the distribution of defects.

The new methods have been compared to traditional quality control methods used in common practice (surface scanning using LOM/SEM and ultrasound C-scan), and suggest a greater number of large defects present in the steel than could otherwise be detected.
