Abstract

The material properties of single crystal (SC) superalloys are orientation-dependent. To fully exploit the material capacity, the life modeling needs to consider the anisotropy. In the present study the life modeling of SC nickel-base superalloys is considered by employing the modified Mücker's anisotropic theory in which a Hill type function is utilized for describing the anisotropic failure. Strain-controlled low cycle fatigue (LCF) experiments of SC nickel-base superalloys at different crystallographic orientations (i.e. [00, [01 and [11) under high temperatures (i.e. 760°C) are carried out to verify the modeling availability for the modified Mücker's anisotropic theory. Further, based on the stress-strain field obtained by the anisotropic elastoplastic constitutive model coupled with the finite element method (FEM), the modified Mücker's anisotropic theory is employed to predict the fatigue life for SC flat plate with a hole.
