Abstract
Weight-optimized component design as well as a reliable estimation of the lifetime of metallic materials and components require a comprehensive understanding of fatigue processes and a systematic investigation of the underlying fatigue behavior. This becomes even more important when designing highly loaded components such as wheels of high-speed passenger railway systems. Typically, mechanical stress-strain hysteresis measurements and increasingly different types of temperature and electrical resistance measurements are used to characterize the fatigue behavior and fatigue processes. Here, electrical resistance measurements provide significant information as they allow the detection of microstructural changes, e. g., through changes in dislocation density and structure. In addition, electrical resistance measurements can be considered in load increase and constant amplitude tests with inserted load-free sequences and in service load tests to characterize damage progress. In this paper, characteristic values of the change in electrical resistance were determined for ICE R7 wheel steel specimens and correlated with dislocation density, which was load- and cycle-dependent and determined through transmission electron microscopy.
Kurzfassung
Die gewichtsoptimierte Bauteilauslegung sowie die zuverlässige Lebensdauerschätzung metallischer Werkstoffe und Bauteile erfordern ein umfassendes Verständnis der Ermüdungsprozesse und eine systematische Untersuchung des zugrundeliegenden Ermüdungsverhaltens. Dies wird umso wichtiger, wenn es sich um hochbeanspruchte Bauteile wie bspw. Räder des Hochgeschwindigkeitspersonenverkehrs handelt. Typischerweise werden mechanische Spannung-Dehnung-Hysteresis-Messungen und zunehmend unterschiedliche Arten der Temperatur- und elektrischen Widerstandsmessung eingesetzt, um das Ermüdungsverhalten zu charakterisieren. Insbesondere liefern hierbei elektrische Widerstandsmessungen einen deutlichen Mehrwert an Informationen, da sie bereits erste mikrostrukturelle Veränderungen detektieren können, die auf Versetzungsreaktionen zurückzuführen sind. Zusätzlich können elektrische Widerstandsmessungen bei Laststeigerungs- und Einstufenversuchen mit eingeschobenen lastfreien Haltezeiten sowie in Betriebslastversuchen zur Charakterisierung des Schädigungsfortschritts eingesetzt werden. Im Rahmen dieses Artikels wurden für den ICE-Vollradstahl R7 Kennwerte der elektrischen Widerstandsänderung ermittelt und beanspruchungs- bzw. lastspielzahlabhängig mit der Veränderung der röntgenografisch ermittelten Versetzungsdichte korreliert.
