FATIGUE CRACK DEFLECTION AND FORMATION OF MICROCRACKS IN POROSITY AREA OF ZG42CrMo. Acta Metall Sin, 1996, 32(10): 1056-1062.
Abstract The fatigue crack propagation rates of ZG42CrMo and its porosity area were measured.The process of fatigue crack growth in porosity area was observed by using metallographic tracing method.Dislocation and slip at the tip of fatigue crack have been studied by using TEM.The morphologies of porosities and microcracks together with sulphide on the surface of porosities were researched by using EPM.Two effects of porosities which make crack deflection and catch crack on fatigue crack growth have been discussed.Possible mechanism of microcrack initiation has been analysed.
