Research Abstract |
It is necessary for prediction of failure and remaining life of machines and structures to evaluate damage of material with use. For in-process and in-service damage evaluation of structural materials, nondestructive methods for material property determination are required. Round bar tension test, Charpy V impact test and 3-point bending test as well as ultrasonic attenuation and wave velocity measurements are made by using carbon steel heat treated with various conditions, explosive clad steel and arc-welded joint. Those tests are carried out for the purpose of establishing the nondestructive methods for material property characterization. Correlations between results of material tests and ultrasonic attenuation or wave velocity are examined. Relationships between mechanical properties and ultrasonic attenuation or wave velocity are represented approximately by straight lines or smooth curves. In heat treated steel, strength decreases and ductility increases with increasing attenuation coefficient. Upper shelf energy absorption increases with increasing wave velocity in heat treated steel. Critical COD increases with increasing attenuation coefficient in heat treated stell, explosive clad steel and welded region. Critical COD increases with increasing wave velosity in explosive clad steel and welded region. Using the results above mentioned, mechanical properties such as strength, elongation and notch toughness can be estimated nondestructively from ultrasonic attenuation or wave velocity.
