Description

Technical Field

Background Art

[0002] Austenitic stainless steel has good heat resistance, corrosion resistance, weldability, and mechanical properties, etc., and is widely used in fields such as automotive parts, ship components, and reactor structures; however, during service, austenitic stainless steel often undergoes the superimposed disturbance of periodic dynamic and static loads, and is extremely prone to fatigue damage, which may then lead to fatigue failure, and in severe cases, it may endanger the operation safety of major equipment such as reactors. Therefore, in-depth research on the fatigue performance of austenitic stainless steel and prediction of its fatigue life are of great significance for ensuring the structural integrity and reliable operation under complex service environments.

[0003] Currently, there are mainly two types of damage mechanics models applied to fatigue damage evolution: one is the Chaboche model and its various simplified models, which are established by directly constructing a damage evolution function based on experimental fatigue curves, have strong universality, and can better characterize the damage behavior of materials under various fatigue load conditions, but have more model parameters and a relatively complex form, bringing certain difficulties to engineering applications; the other is the damage model proposed by Lemaitre based on the theory of thermodynamic dissipation, which essentially belongs to a ductile damage model and directly correlates the damage variable with the development of the plastic strain of the material, with a relatively solid theoretical basis and a relatively simple model form; however, although the above two types of models have been widely used in the field of fatigue damage, in actual engineering, problems such as difficulty in obtaining parameters, complex model calculations, and limited applicability still exist, and it is still difficult to achieve efficient and convenient engineering promotion and application.

Detailed implementation manners

[0038] Now, example embodiments will be described more fully with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the example embodiments can be implemented in various forms and should not be construed as limited to the examples set forth herein; rather, these embodiments are provided so that this application will be more complete and comprehensive, and will fully convey the concept of the example embodiments to those skilled in the art. The described features, structures, or characteristics can be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments. In the following description, numerous specific details are provided to give a thorough understanding of the embodiments of the present application.

[0039] In the embodiments of the present application, S30408 stainless steel is used as the fatigue test sample, and low-cycle fatigue tests are carried out under different stress conditions. Samples with different cycle numbers in the intermediate non-fracture stage are selected for mechanical property, physical property, and microstructure characterization tests, attempting to identify fatigue damage characteristic defects closely related to the degradation of mechanical properties, exploring characteristic physical property parameters related to fatigue-induced microstructural changes, and finally establishing a quantitative mathematical model of these three parameters. Another object of the present application is to reverse the defect state through the results of non-destructive magnetic testing and estimate the remaining service life. Thus, microdefect evolution and macroscopic magnetic properties are innovatively combined to achieve in-situ non-destructive detection and life assessment of austenitic stainless steel structures, providing a new technical means for the reliability analysis of engineering structures.

[0040] Specifically, the chemical composition of the S30408 stainless steel sample is shown in Table 1 below:

[0041] Table 1: Chemical composition of S30408 stainless steel (wt.%)

[0042]

[0043] Thus, referring to Figure 1 shown Figure 1The flowchart of an exemplary austenitic stainless steel fatigue aging damage prediction and evaluation method according to some embodiments of the present application is shown. The present application relates to a multi-dimensional fusion prediction and evaluation method for austenitic stainless steel fatigue aging damage. Specifically, the loss prediction and evaluation method includes:

[0044] S1: Calculate the variation curve of the stress amplitude and the number of load cycles to failure during the fatigue damage process of the material according to the Basquin formula.

[0045] Before performing the damage prediction and evaluation, the S30408 stainless steel is processed into a reference Figure 2 shown fatigue test sample, Figure 2 The structural schematic diagram of an exemplary austenitic stainless steel fatigue sample according to some embodiments of the present application is shown. Thus, the present application collectively refers to the fatigue test samples as samples.

[0046] Specifically: Tensile experiments are carried out on the S30408 stainless steel to determine the stress parameters of the fatigue experiment. Subsequently, according to GB / T 3075-2008 Metallic materials - Fatigue testing - Axial force-controlled method, low-cycle accelerated fatigue experiments are carried out under 4 stress conditions. The experimental parameters and results are shown in Table 2 below:

[0047] Table 2: Fatigue experiment data results (stress ratio R = 0.1)

[0048]

[0049] Among them, when performing the fatigue experiment, the selected Figure 2 shown S30408 austenitic stainless steel is used as the sample and its austenite structure is confirmed to be uniform through metallographic inspection, and the grain size meets the standard requirements; then a uniaxial tensile experiment is carried out and an electronic universal material testing machine is used, with the loading rate controlled at 1 mm / min. Five standard samples are taken for the tensile experiment, and the tensile strength, yield strength, and elastic modulus of the S30408 austenitic stainless steel are measured; furthermore, according to the national standard GB / T 3075-2008 Metallic materials - Fatigue testing - Axial force-controlled method, the fatigue experiment is carried out and an electro-hydraulic servo fatigue testing machine (MTS Landmark370.25) is used with the loading mode being the axial force control mode. And to study the influence of different stress levels on the fatigue life, 4 maximum stresses in Table 2 are set for the low-cycle fatigue experiment; the samples after fatigue fracture are observed for the fracture characteristics by a scanning electron microscope, and the morphological characteristics of the fatigue source area, propagation area, and instantaneous fracture area are analyzed. Based on this, the fatigue stress-fatigue life (S-N) curve is constructed in combination with the cycle number data for subsequent fatigue life modeling.

[0050] Thus, samples at the intermediate stage of fatigue were prepared according to the ratio of the number of fracture cycles under two stress conditions of 660 MPa and 730 MPa. The specific experimental parameters and experimental results are shown in Table 2 above. The S-N curves corresponding to the low-cycle accelerated fatigue experiments under 4 stress conditions are referenced Figure 3 as shown Figure 3 FIG. shows a schematic diagram of an exemplary austenitic stainless steel fatigue stress-fatigue life curve of some embodiments of the present application. Fitting the fatigue experimental data, the S-N results satisfy the following relationship: , where σ max is the maximum stress, and N f is the number of cycles at fatigue fracture under a constant amplitude load, that is, the number of fracture cycles.

[0051] Thus, the Basquin formula believes that during the constant stress amplitude fatigue test, there is a relationship between the stress amplitude and the number of load cycles at failure, that is, the Basquin expression: , where σ a is the stress amplitude, σ f ’ is the fatigue strength coefficient, and b is the fatigue strength index.

[0052] Meanwhile, the four-point correlation method is used to determine the fatigue strength index b, where: , where σ b is the tensile strength of the material in the static tensile test, and σ f is the true fracture strength. Among them, the four-point correlation method is a method for solving the stress-life curve parameters by selecting any four test data points. This method assumes that the S-N curve follows the Basquin relationship, and then selects four data points and solves the fatigue strength index b according to the existing four-point correlation method formula.

[0053] Thus, according to the tensile test results and the manufacturer's performance data in Table 3 below:

[0054] Table 3: Stainless steel manufacturer performance data

[0055]

[0056] we get σ b = 710 MPa, take σ f = 1060 MPa, and the relationship between the two is:

[0057] ;

[0058] Among them, for the convenience of calculation, it is usually considered that σ f ’≈σ f , then σ f= 1060 Mpa. At the same time, according to the formula of fatigue strength index b, b = -0.111892 is calculated. Then, the fatigue prediction model for the samples of this application is:

[0059] .

[0060] The comparison between the stress amplitude data obtained according to the above calculation model and the experimental data is shown in Table 4 below:

[0061] Table 4: Comparison between the stress amplitude data calculated by the model and the experimental data

[0062]

[0063] From this, it can be seen that the data obtained from theoretical calculation is in good agreement with the experimental data, and the error is within 10%. At the same time, it can be seen from Table 4 that the error under the stress condition of 730 MPa is relatively large, and 730 MPa is greater than the tensile strength of 710 MPa of the material given by the manufacturer. This may have a greater impact on the damage accumulation of the material during fatigue, resulting in a greater dispersion of fatigue life. Therefore, the mechanical and physical data of the samples at each stage under the stress condition of 660 MPa are selected for modeling in the follow-up.

[0064] S2: Calculate the change curve of the characteristic defect parameter of the material during the service stage and the reduced number of cycles by taking the kernel average misorientation degree representing the degree of plastic deformation as the characteristic defect parameter.

[0065] Specifically, in S2, the reduced fatigue life n = N / Nf is approximately defined, where N is the current number of cycles and Nf is the number of fracture cycles. The fatigue stage and remaining fatigue life of the material are evaluated in the form of a percentage, and KAM (Kernel Average Misorientation) is selected as the quantitative parameter of the characteristic defect caused by fatigue damage. Among them, according to the KAM statistical results of the samples at different fatigue stages under the stress condition of 660 MPa, refer to Figure 4 as shown. Figure 4 shows a schematic diagram of defect statistics of samples under an exemplary stress condition of 660 MPa in some embodiments of this application. Among them, Figure 4 the (a) of is the KAM count statistical chart of fatigue fracture samples at different cycles, Figure 4 the (b) of is the change trend chart of KAM with the number of cycles. KAM is positively correlated with the dislocation density, and the calculation formula is as follows: , where is the geometric dislocation density, μ is the dislocation Burgers vector length, and b' is the electron backscatter diffraction step size.

[0066] In this application, due to the large increase in dislocation density at the initial stage of fatigue and subsequent linear growth, and since the dislocation growth rate remains basically unchanged when the loading frequency changes little, the linear fitting relationship between the reduced fatigue life n and KAM is as follows:

[0067] , where KAM0 is the initial KAM value, which is the KAM value at 1 cycle; k is the generation rate of dislocations with respect to the reduced fatigue life n; according to the above relationship, the linear fitting curve of KAM of the sample under fatigue stress with respect to the reduced fatigue life n can be obtained. Specifically, for the sample under the experimental condition of 660 MPa stress, the linear fitting result of KAM with respect to the reduced fatigue life n is referenced Figure 5 as shown.

[0068] S3: Establish a fatigue damage mechanics model that correlates characteristic defect parameters and Vickers hardness to calculate the Vickers hardness mechanical property parameters in the damaged defect state during the service stage of the material.

[0069] Specifically, in S3, the statistical results of the Vickers hardness of the samples at different cycles under 660 MPa cyclic loading with respect to the number of cycles are as Figure 6 shown. It can be clearly seen from Figure 6 that as the number of cycles increases, the hardness of the samples generally shows an upward trend, and the increase mainly occurs after 1 cycle. Therefore, hardness is selected as the mechanical characteristic parameter and Vickers hardness measurement is carried out. The relationship between its flow stress and dislocation density is as follows: , where G is the shear modulus, C is a constant, and b'' is the dislocation Burgers vector; the flow stress and hardness generally satisfy a linear relationship. Therefore, combining the relationship formulas of KAM and dislocation density, reduced fatigue life n and KAM, and the relationship between flow stress and dislocation density, the relationship formula between hardness and KAM can be fitted as follows: , where H is the Vickers hardness, and both A and B are fitting parameters. A is related to the elastic modulus and dislocation properties, and B is set to 0. According to the above relationship formula between hardness and KAM, the fitting relationship between the Vickers hardness H and KAM of the samples at each stage of fatigue under fatigue stress can be obtained and the degree of coincidence can be compared.

[0070] Therefore, for the fitting relationship between the Vickers hardness H and KAM of the samples at each stage of fatigue under 660 MPa stress, it is referenced Figure 7 as shown; the correlation coefficient R 2 = 0.999, and the degree of coincidence is good. At this time, A = 247.84, and the maximum error is 5.71%.

[0071] S4: Establish a fatigue damage physical model that correlates characteristic defect parameters and magnetic property parameters to calculate the internal damage defect state during the service stage of the material.

[0072] Specifically, in S4, it is referenced Figure 8 as shown.Figure 8 Schematic diagrams of magnetization curves of an exemplary austenitic stainless steel at different cycle numbers according to some embodiments of the present application are shown; wherein the austenitic stainless steel exhibits typical soft magnetic material characteristics, with a narrow hysteresis loop, a large magnetic permeability, a small coercive force, and a small remanence. Refer to Figure 9 as shown Figure 9 Partial magnetization data of the samples at different fatigue cycle numbers and their variation trends are presented. Among them, Figure 9 a in Figure 9 shows a schematic diagram of the variation of the remanent magnetization intensity with the fatigue cycle number, Figure 9 b in Figure 9 shows a schematic diagram of the variation of the saturation magnetization intensity with the fatigue cycle number, Figure 9 c in Figure 9 shows a schematic diagram of the variation of the coercive force with the fatigue cycle number,

[0073] Taking the reduced fatigue life n as a parameter, the relationship between KAM and the saturation magnetization intensity Ms is obtained as follows:

[0074] It is known that the linear relationship between KAM and n: By deforming it, we can get: Therefore, the relationship between the saturation magnetization intensity Ms and n is fitted as: where Ms0 is the initial saturation magnetization intensity, and Ms MAX is the maximum saturation magnetization intensity, which takes the Ms of the fractured sample or defines the calculated limit value as the fitting parameter; f > 0 is the fitting parameter of the growth rate of the saturation magnetization intensity with respect to the reduced fatigue life; according to the above relationship, the fitting relationship between the saturation magnetization intensity Ms and the reduced fatigue life n of the samples at each stage of fatigue under stress can be obtained and the goodness of fit can be compared.

[0075] For the fitting relationship between the saturation magnetization intensity Ms and the reduced fatigue life n of the samples at each stage of fatigue under a stress of 730 MPa, refer to Figure 10 as shown. The correlation coefficient R 2 = 0.9808, and the goodness of fit is good. At this time, Ms0 = 2.0749 emu / g, Ms MAX = 2.6438 emu / g, f = 4.1701, and the maximum error is 1.87%.

[0076] Furthermore, by deforming the above relationship between Ms and n, we can obtain: , and then, by combining the linear relationship between KAM and n and the relationship between Ms and n, the relationship between the saturation magnetization Ms and KAM of the sample under stress is fitted as follows: ,

[0077] .

[0078] According to the above relationship, the fitting relationship between the saturation magnetization Ms and KAM of the samples in each stage of fatigue under stress can be obtained and the degree of fit can be compared.

[0079] For the fitting relationship between the saturation magnetization Ms and KAM of the samples in each stage of fatigue under the stress of 660 MPa, refer to Figure 11 as shown, the correlation coefficient R 2 = 0.999, with a good degree of fit. At this time, Ms0 = 2.0749 emu / g, Ms MAX = 2.6438 emu / g, KAM0 = 1.47, k = 0.53, f = 4.1701, and the maximum error is 1.87%.

[0080] Similarly, for the fitting relationship between the saturation magnetization Ms and KAM of the samples in each stage of fatigue under the stress of 730 MPa, refer to Figure 12 as shown, the correlation coefficient R 2 = 0.999, with a good degree of fit. At this time, Ms0 = 2.0749 emu / g, Ms MAX = 3.696 emu / g, KAM0 = 1.76, k = 0.32, f = 16.4686, and the maximum error is 1.51%.

[0081] S5: Compare the change curves of the characteristic defect parameters and mechanical property parameters with the number of load cycles to judge the deterioration state of the mechanical properties of the material and generate the remaining service life of the material.

[0082] Specifically, in S5, combining the foregoing content, taking KAM as a parameter, the relationship between the Vickers hardness H and the saturation magnetization Ms is obtained as follows:

[0083] The known linear relationship between H and KAM: , let the initial hardness be , and then and are substituted into the linear relationship formula of H and KAM to obtain the relationship formula of H and Ms: ;

[0084] Define the relative saturation magnetization: , substitute it into the relationship formula of H and Ms and let B = 0, then: .

[0085] Thus, for the fitting relationship between the Vickers hardness H and KAM of the samples at each stage of fatigue under a stress of 660 MPa, refer to Figure 13 As shown, the correlation coefficient R 2 = 0.999, with a good degree of fit. At this time, Ms0 = 2.0749 emu / g, Ms MAX = 2.6438 emu / g, A = 247.84, B = 0, k = 0.53, f = 4.1701. Because for low-cycle fatigue, the hardness increases significantly after one cycle of fatigue, so H0 is 300.49 MPa, which is calculated according to the formula by taking KAM0 = 1.47; the maximum error is 6.48%.

[0086] In summary, by adopting the austenitic stainless steel low-cycle fatigue damage prediction and evaluation method of the present application, the following beneficial effects are achieved:

[0087] First, the Allometricl model calculation method is adopted to output the fatigue stress-fatigue life (S-N) relationship corresponding to the low-cycle accelerated fatigue experiment, and the fitting relationship between the stress amplitude and the fatigue life is established with the Basquin formula for goodness-of-fit evaluation. The fitting result is in good agreement with the experimental result.

[0088] Second, the KAM value in EBSD is used as the characteristic defect parameter to obtain the change curve of austenitic stainless steel with the number of cycles.

[0089] Third, the Vickers hardness is used as the mechanical characteristic parameter to obtain the fitting relationship between the Vickers hardness H and KAM at each stage of austenitic stainless steel under fatigue stress. The fitting result is in good agreement with the experimental result.

[0090] Fourth, the magnetic induction intensity parameter is used to correlate the low-cycle fatigue damage characteristic micro-defects, and the fitting relationship between the saturation magnetization intensity Ms and KAM of the samples at each stage of fatigue under stress is obtained. The fitting result is in good agreement with the experimental result.

[0091] Fifth, the defect state is inferred from the non-destructive magnetic detection result to estimate the remaining service life.

[0092] Therefore, starting from the non-destructive magnetic detection result, the present application accurately determines multiple detailed evaluation parameters such as the mechanical property degradation condition, the internal micro-defect damage condition, and the remaining service life condition of the austenitic stainless steel fatigue at the current service stage from the basic theoretical perspective, so as to accurately judge the current service state of the austenitic stainless steel and improve the safety of its service system.

[0093] Refer to Figure 14 As shown. In some embodiments of the present application, the present application also relates to an austenitic stainless steel fatigue aging damage prediction and evaluation system using the above damage prediction and evaluation method. The system includes:

[0095] The characteristic defect evolution calculation module 202 is used to calculate the change curve of the characteristic defect parameters and the reduced cycle number of the material during the whole fatigue service stage by taking the kernel average misorientation degree representing the plastic deformation degree as the characteristic defect parameter.

[0096] The fatigue damage mechanics calculation module 203 is used to establish a fatigue damage mechanics model relating the characteristic defect parameters and the Vickers hardness to calculate the Vickers hardness mechanical property parameters in the damage defect state during the service stage of the material.

[0097] The fatigue damage physics calculation module 204 is used to establish a fatigue damage physics model relating the characteristic defect parameters and the magnetic property parameters to calculate the internal damage defect state during the service stage of the material.

[0099] In summary, referring to Figure 14 as shown, the overall idea of the low-cycle fatigue damage prediction and evaluation process of the austenitic stainless steel in this application is as follows:

[0100] 1. The saturation magnetization intensity Ms of the current material can be obtained through physical property tests.

[0101] 2. The plastic deformation degree KAM of the current material can be obtained through the fatigue damage physics calculation module 204.

[0102] 3. The reduced service duration n of the current material (n ≤ 1, a percentage parameter, specifically meaning the current service cycle N / the fatigue fracture cycle Nf) can be obtained through the characteristic defect evolution calculation module 202.

[0103] 4. The Vickers hardness H of the current material can be obtained through the fatigue damage mechanics calculation module 203.

[0104] 5. The number of cycles of the austenitic stainless steel under specific stress conditions can be obtained through the stress-fatigue life calculation module 201. According to the calculated reduced fatigue life n, it can be obtained how many more cycles can be cycled before failure under this stress condition.
