Abstract

The friction welding of AISI 52100 grade low chromium and high carbon steel joints are investigated in this work to evaluate the fatigue life of the joints by conducting the experiments using servo hydraulic fatigue testing machine at different stress levels. All the experiments are conducted under uniaxial tensile loading condition (stress ratio=0). Fatigue strength, fatigue notch factor (Kf) and notch sensitivity factor (q) are evaluated for the optimized joints and the relationship between tensile and fatigue properties of Fully Deformed None (FDZ) is established. Finally, the Characteristics of friction welded joint is investigated with the help of Scanning Electron Microscope and Optical Microscopy under optimized condition.
