Abstract
Compact tension (CT) and Charpy “V” notch (CVN) (impact and three-point bend) specimens of 18 Ni 1800 MPa maraging steel (parent metal and weldment) were used to determine plane strain fracture toughness (K IC) and CVN impact energy (CVNIE), respectively. Using an empirical equation,K IC-CVNIE correlation is attempted which could be advantageously utilized for routine quality control of inward material to effect savings in cost and time. Investigations reveal betterK IC-CVNIE correlation for tests using the precracked CVN specimens. Scanning electron microscopic (SEM) observations reveal good correlation between fractographic features and fracture toughness.
