Outline of Research at the Start |
近年,宇宙利用機器の低コスト化を目的として,ロケットエンジンの製造に積層造形法(Additive manufacturing method; AM)を適用することに期待が集まっている.しかし,AM材には表面粗さや空孔などの造形欠陥が含まれるため,これらの欠陥による疲労強度の低下を的確に評価することが不可欠である.また,ロケットエンジンの構成材料は水素環境に曝されるため,疲労破壊の問題に加え,水素脆性への対策を講じる必要がある.本研究では,上記の独立した2つの現象を包括的に理解し,水素環境におけるNi基超合金AM材の疲労限度を定量的に評価する手法を確立する.

Outline of Annual Research Achievements |
During this year, I have examined the fatigue limit of an additively-manufactured, Ni-based superalloy 718 in terms of the small, fatigue-crack growth-threshold, using samples with various small defects and microstructures. Based on the macro- and microscopic analyses, the determining mechanism of the fatigue limit, the effects of small defects and the factors impacting fatigue resistance were all thoroughly explored. The principal conclusions are summarized as follows: 1) Fatigue tests revealed that small-crack behavior was governed by maximum shear stress under both cyclic torsional loading and push-pull loading. This implied that the fatigue limit of all the samples was the threshold condition of a shear-mode, small fatigue-crack propagation, similar to the findings related to wrought materials. 2) In each case, the shear-mode, small fatigue-crack growth-threshold was estimated to quantify the effects of small defects. As a result, the relationship between the fatigue threshold and defect size was acquired, showing not only a crack-size dependence consistent with the results of wrought materials, but also a substantially low fatigue resistance of additively-manufactured materials. 3) Through the comprehensive examination of the effects of potential determining factors on small fatigue crack-growth resistance, it was concluded that the twist angle between two favorable slip planes in neighboring grains was the most influential factor in the inferior fatigue threshold of the additively-manufactured material.
