Abstract

The behaviour of steels at multi-step cyclic loading was explored up to now almost exclusively in fatigue-life-oriented investigations. Thus, only few works exist dealing with the cyclic deformation behaviour at two- and multi-step loading. Therefore, the cyclic deformation behaviour at two-step experiments with a single amplitude change (2-block experiments) and with multiple changes between two blocks of certain length and different amplitudes (multi-block experiments) was investigated in this work at the technically important steel AISI 4140 (German grade 42CrMo4).

Abstract

Das Verhalten von Stählen bei mehrstufigen Schwingbeanspruchungen wurde bislang fast ausschließlich in lebensdauerorientierten Versuchen untersucht, so dass nur wenige Arbeiten zum zyklischen Verformungsverhalten bei zwei- und mehrstufigen Beanspruchungen vorliegen. Deshalb wurden in dieser Arbeit zweistufige Wechselverformungsexperimente mit einem einzelnen Amplitudenwechsel (Zwei-Block-Experimente) und solche mit mehreren Wechseln zwischen zwei Blöcken definierter Länge, aber unterschiedlicher Amplitude (Multi-Block-Experimente) am technisch wichtigen Vergütungsstahl 42CrMo4 vorgestellt und bewertet.

Keywords: Two-step fatigue loading; Cyclic deformation behaviour; Steel AISI 4140
