Analysis of the influence of the anisotropy induced by cold rolling on duplex and super-austenitic stainless steels
Journal Title: Frattura ed Integrità Strutturale - Year 2010, Vol 4, Issue 13
Abstract
This report contains the results obtained from the mechanical characterization tests carried out on two different stainless steel (duplex 6%Ni, 22%Cr and super-austenitic 31%Ni, 28%Cr) used for the manufacturing of pipes which are employed in the oil production. The activity has been performed in order to evaluate the effects of anisotropy, induced by cold rolling, on the mechanical characteristics of the investigated steels, measured in the three main directions. Considering the small size of the component, the method and the specimens used for the tests were not the standard one. The procedure carried out provided the strain measurement of the specimen during testing by means of resistive strain gages, bonded on the specimens.

Experimental analysis of crack evolution in concrete by the acoustic emission technique
The fracture process zone (FPZ) was investigated on unnotched and notched beams with different notch depths. Three point bending tests were realized on plain concrete under crack mouth opening displacement (CMOD)...
Experimental estimation of the heat energy dissipated in a volume surrounding the tip of a fatigue crack
Fatigue crack initiation and propagation involve plastic strains that require some work to be done on the material. Most of this irreversible energy is dissipated as heat and consequently the material temperature&...
Application of the Moment Of Inertia method to the Critical-Plane Approach
The Moment-Of-Inertia (MOI) method has been proposed by the authors to solve some of the shortcomings of convex-enclosure methods, when they are used to calculate path-equivalent ranges and mean components of comp...
