... of a section) from an internal frame of steam turbine serviced for about 250,000 h. Performed research has proven that through the microstructure degradation long-term service contributes to an embrittlement and decrease in yield strength and tensile strength. The heat treatment, however, contributes...

... small scale yielding, this study clearly shows that FAD curves are not influenced by negative biaxial loading at low load (up to 40% of yield strength). It was clearly confirmed that the majority of previously developed analytical FAD curves do not effectively account for notch and plasticity effects...

...P. S. Lam; R. L. Sindelar; A. J. Duncan; T. M. Adams A compendium of mechanical properties of carbon and low alloy steels following hydrogen exposure has been assembled from literature sources. The property sets include yield strength, ultimate tensile strength, uniform elongation, reduction...

... predicts the hydrogen concentration required to initiate HAC as a function of the applied stress intensity factor and yield strength of the steel. Hydrogen-induced reduction in R was found to dominate HAC in the 4140 steel, while hydrogen-induced reduction in R was combined with an increase in G for HAC...

.... The proposed design formulas are given in terms of the yield strength of the material and address the fatigue strength at the location of the maximum stress concentration factor. Introduction of these new formulas in a nonmandatory appendix of Section VIII, Division 3 is recommended after committee approval...

..., data are needed to guide the selection of materials for structural components. The objective of this study is to characterize the role of yield strength, microstructural orientation, and small concentrations of ferrite on hydrogen-assisted fracture in two austenitic stainless steels: 21Cr–6Ni–9Mn (21-6...

..., and their amplitude ranged from 0.3 mm to 1.0 mm . Tension coupon tests were conducted on the intrados, extrados, and virgin materials of the specimens. It was revealed that the extrados material exhibited an increase in yield strength due to work hardening and that the intrados material demonstrated a reduction...

... deformation behavior of thick-walled cylinders during both loading and unloading phases. Strain hardening may occur during loading, and reverse yielding may occur during unloading at a yield strength significantly reduced due to the Bauschinger effect. Three different models for the reverse hardening...

...Shyh-Jen Wang The relationship of torque versus angle of rotation stabilizes after only a few cycles so that the alternating stress will become a constant as long as the maximum shear stress is less than the shear yield strength of the material. Using this information in Findley‘s fatigue criterion...

...J. Perry; M. Perl; R. Shneck; S. Haroush The Bauschinger effect (BE) was originally defined as the phenomenon whereby plastic deformation causes a loss of yield strength restraining in the opposite direction. The Bauschinger effect factor (BEF), defined as the ratio of the yield stress on reverse...
