摘要: 作为深海载人装备结构的优选材料,TC4ELI (Extra-low-interstitial低间隙元素)钛合金的抗疲劳裂纹扩展性能至关重要。对TC4ELI的疲劳裂纹扩展行为进行系统测试与原位观测,同时选取传统TC4钛合金进行对比试验。结果显示,与TC4相比,TC4ELI具有更高的疲劳裂纹扩展寿命;同时,原位观察发现,TC4ELI的疲劳裂纹扩展存在明显偏折现象,导致裂纹路径比TC4更为曲折。进一步,综合利用微观表征手段对TC4ELI疲劳断口、材料组份、裂纹路径区域微结构进行系统的分析。在此基础上,利用有限元模拟计算裂纹扩展驱动力随偏折角度的变化规律,并分析裂纹偏折对TC4ELI疲劳扩展寿命的影响机理。研究对TC4ELI深海装备结构的损伤容限设计提供了参考。

Abstract: As the optimal material for deep-sea manned equipment structure, TC4ELI(Extra-low-interstitial) titanium alloy's anti fatigue crack growth performance is crucial. In this work, the fatigue crack growth behavior of TC4ELI is systematically tested and observed in situ, and the traditional TC4 titanium alloy is selected for comparative experiments. The results show that TC4ELI has a higher fatigue crack growth life than TC4; At the same time, in situ observation found that the fatigue crack growth of TC4ELI is obviously deflected, resulting in a more tortuous crack path than TC4. Furthermore, TC4ELI fatigue fracture surface, material composition and microstructure of crack path region were systematically analyzed by means of microscopic characterization. On this basis, the variation of crack growth driving force with deflection angle is calculated by finite element simulation, and the influence mechanism of crack deflection on TC4ELI fatigue growth life is analyzed. This study provides a reference for the damage tolerance design of TC4ELI deep-sea equipment structure.
