Mechanical Properties and Fracture Behaviour of LMD Produced 2.4682 and Wrought 2.4630 Dissimilar Welds
Abstract A bearing made of Stellite 31 (2.4682) has to be welded onto a housing of Nimonic 75 (2.4630) by autogenous laser beam welding. The bearing part is produced by laser metal deposition (LMD), the housing consists of wrought sheet metal. An...

Non Linear Behaviour of an Inflatable Beam and Limit States
Abstract In this work, we consider inflatable beams and define their limit states, in terms of displacements, wrinkling, and collapse of the beam. The definition and properties of the collapse load are highlighted. Concerning the displacements, the...

On the mechanism of dynamic embrittlement and its effect on fatigue crack propagation in IN718 at 650°C
Abstract IN718 is a commonly used nickel-base alloy for high temperature applications, e.g., in gas and steam turbines. At elevated temperatures, this and other superalloys are prone to the failure mechanism "dynamic embrittlement". Dynamic...

Investigation of fatigue crack growth in a power plant steel under elevated temperatures
Abstract The definition of inspection intervals on the basis of fracture mechanics requires beside the knowledge of the load e.g. in terms of stress intensity solutions also the knowledge of the material parameters e.g. in terms of crack growth...
