This STP contains papers presented at the Fourth Symposium on Thermomechanical Fatigue Behavior of Materials held in November, 2001. The Symposium was sponsored by ASTM Committee E08 on Fatigue and Fracture and its Subcommittee E08.05 on Cyclic Deformation and Fatigue Crack Formation.
The twenty-one papers published in this STP have been organized into four sections – Thermomechanical Deformation Behavior and Modeling, Damage Mechanisms under Thermomechanical Fatigue, Thermomechanical Fatigue Behavior and Cyclic Life Prediction, and Experimental Techniques for Thermomechanical Testing.
Specific topics addressed by the papers in this collection include:
- computational technology
- viscoplastic deformation of materials under thermomechanical conditions
- coated alloys
- single crystal nickel-base superalloys
- titanium aluminide materials
- fracture mechanics for TMF life prediction
- coated TMF behavior of a monocrystalline superalloy
- loading effects
- thermomechanical fatigue tests
- cyclic stress-strain behavior
- ductile-to-brittle transition temperature (DBTT)
- cyclic hardening
- automotive exhaust systems
- cast aluminum engine components
- Acoustic emission
- hysteresis loops
- finite element modeling
- axial-torsional loading
- thermal barrier coatings (TBC)
- creep-fatigue
This STP contains useful, critical information for a variety of technical audiences. The materials scientist will gain a deeper understanding of the mechanisms by which deformation and damage develop, how they are influenced by microstructure, and how this microstructure may be tailored to a specific application from several of the papers in this publication. The analyst wishing to develop engineering relationships and mathematical models that describe constitutive and damage evolution behaviors of materials will find the modeling and testing data of interest. The designer will gain background regarding engineering tools and test methods to reliably and economically create load-bearing structures subjected to cyclic, thermally-induced loads. The STP also contains papers of value to the experimentalist interested in establishing or improving thermomechanical fatigue testing capability.
