Effect of thermal induced porosity on high-cycle fatigue and very high-cycle fatigue behaviors of hot-isostatic-pressed Ti-6Al-4V powder components

摘要

The present work reports the effect of thermal induced porosity(TIP)on the high-cycle fatigue(HCF)and very high-cycle fatigue(VHCF)behaviors of hot-isostatic-pressed(HIPed)Ti-6Al-4V alloy from gasatomized powder.The results show that the residual pores in the as-HIPed powder compacts present no obvious effect on the HCF life.The regrowth of the residual pores can be observed after solution heat treatment.The pore location ranks the most harmful for the fatigue life compared with the other initiating defects.The maximum stress intensity factors were calculated.The plastic zone size of fine granular area(FGA)is much less than the characteristic size of the microstructure,and the crucial size of the internal pores in this study is about 40μm.The failure types of fatigue specimens in the VHCF regime were classified,and the competition of different failure types was described based on the modified Poisson distribution.
