OS0710 薄肉球状黒鉛鋳鉄の疲労強度特性に及ぼす鋳肌の効果(構造用材料の疲労挙動と寿命評価,オーガナイズドセッション)

Abstract

This report deals with fatigue properties of the thin wall ductile cast iron and effect of casting surface. Fatigue tests were conducted with as-cast and surface machined test pieces made of ductile cast iron in the shape of thin plate 2mm thick. The fatigue limit of as-cast test piece was smaller than that of machined ones. Fracture origin and its size were investigated by SEM observatioii Most of the fracture origins were concavity of casting surface, and others were micro shrinkages and dross. Measurement manners of fracture origins at the concavity on the casting surface were examined. Fracture origin size was also estimated by the profile of the casting surface to predict fatigue properties. The sizes of the fracture origins were evaluated well with the depth and the radius at the bottom of the concavity. Evaluation with the depth and the width of the concavity is overestimated, compared with the experimental results. Estimated fatigue limit by the proffle of the casting surface was 259MPa, and it was agreed well with the fatigue limit of the experimental results of 252MPa. Fatigue limit can be predicted by the profiles of the casting surface.
