18、n and use of pre-cracked specimens for tests under rising load or rising displacement 1 Scope 1.1 This part of ISO 7539 covers procedures for designing, preparing and using pre-cracked specimens for investigating the susceptibility of metal to stress corrosion cracking by means of tests conducted un
19、der rising load or rising displacement. Tests conducted under constant load or constant displacement are dealt with in ISO 7539-6. The term “metal” as used in this part of ISO 7539 includes alloys. 1.2 Because of the need to confine plasticity to the crack tip, pre-cracked specimens are not suitable
20、 for the evaluation of thin products such as sheet or wire and are generally used for thicker products including plate, bar and forgings. They can also be used for parts joined by welding. 1.3 Pre-cracked specimens may be stressed quantitatively with equipment for application of a monotonically incr
21、easing load or displacement at the loading points. 1.4 A particular advantage of pre-cracked specimens is that they allow data to be acquired from which critical defect sizes, above which stress corrosion cracking may occur, can be estimated for components of known geometry subjected to known stress
22、es. They also enable rates of stress corrosion crack propagation to be determined. 1.5 A principal advantage of the test is that it takes into account the potential impact of dynamic straining on the threshold for stress corrosion cracking. 1.6 At sufficiently low loading rates, the K ISCCdetermined
23、 by this method can be less than or equal to that obtained by constant load or displacement methods and can be determined more rapidly. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

29、ens acknowledges the difficulty of ensuring that crack-like defects, introduced during either manufacture or subsequent service, are totally absent from structures. Furthermore, the presence of such defects can cause a susceptibility to stress corrosion cracking, which in some materials (e.g. titani
30、um) may not be evident from tests on smooth specimens under constant load. The principles of linear elastic fracture mechanics can be used to quantify the stress situation existing at the crack tip in a pre- cracked specimen or structure in terms of the plane strain-stress intensity. 4.2 The test in
31、volves subjecting a specimen, in which a crack has been developed from a machined notch by fatigue, to an increasing load or displacement during exposure to a chemically aggressive environment. The objective is to quantify the conditions under which environmentally-assisted crack extension can occur
32、 in terms of the threshold stress intensity for stress corrosion cracking, K ISCC , and the kinetics of crack propagation. 4.3 Tests may be conducted in tension or in bending. The most important characteristic of the test is the low loading/displacement rate that is applied. 4.4 Because of the dynam
33、ic straining which is associated with this method, the data obtained may differ from those obtained for pre-cracked specimens with the same combination of environment and material when the specimens are subjected to static loading only. 2) To be published.

34、9-9:2008ISO 7539-9:2003(E) ISO 2009 All rights reserved 34.5 The empirical data can be used for design or life prediction purposes in order to ensure either that the stresses within large structures are insufficient to promote the initiation of environmentally-assisted cracking at whatever pre-exist
35、ing defects may be present or that the amount of crack growth which would occur within the design life or inspection periods can be tolerated without the risk of unstable failure. 4.6 Stress corrosion cracking is influenced by both mechanical and electrochemical driving forces. The latter can vary w
36、ith crack depth, opening or shape because of variations in crack-tip chemistry and electrode potential and may not be uniquely described by the fracture mechanics stress intensity factor. 4.7 The mechanical driving force includes both applied and residual stresses. The possible influence of the latt
37、er should be considered in both laboratory testing and application to more complex geometries. Gradients in residual stress in a specimen may result in non-uniform crack growth along the crack front. 4.8 K ISCCis a function of the environment, which should simulate that in service, and of the condit
38、ions of loading. 5 Specimens 5.1 General 5.1.1 A wide range of standard specimen geometries of the type used in fracture toughness tests may be used. Those most commonly used are described in ISO 7539-6. The particular type of specimen used will be dependent upon the form, the strength and the susce
39、ptibility to stress corrosion cracking of the material to be tested and also on the objective of the test. 5.1.2 A basic requirement is that the dimensions be sufficient to maintain predominantly triaxial (plane strain) conditions in which plastic deformation is limited in the vicinity of the crack
40、tip. Experience with fracture toughness testing has shown that for a valid K lcmeasurement, both the crack length, a, and the thickness, B, shall be not less than 2 Ic p0,2 2, 5 KR and that, where possible, larger specimens where both a and B are at least 2 Ic p0,2 4 KR shall be used to ensure adequ
41、ate constraint. From the view of fracture mechanics, a minimum thickness from which an invariant value of K ISCCis obtained cannot currently be specified. The presence of an aggressive environment during stress corrosion may reduce the extent of plasticity associated with fracture and hence the spec
42、imen dimensions needed to limit plastic deformation. However, in order to minimize the risk of inadequate constraint, it is recommended that similar criteria to those employed during fracture toughness testing used regarding specimen dimensions, i.e. both a and B shall be not less than 2 I p0,2 2, 5
43、 KR BS EN ISO 7539-9:2008ISO 7539-9:2003(E) 4 ISO 2009 All rights reservedand preferably shall be not less than 2 I p0,2 4 KR where K Iis the stress intensity to be applied during testing, in MPa/m. As a test for its validity, the threshold stress intensity value eventually determined shall be subst
44、ituted for K Iin the first of these expressions. 5.1.3 If the specimens are to be used for the determination of K ISCC , the initial specimen size shall be based on an estimate of the K ISCCof the material (in the first instance, it being better to over-estimate the K ISCCvalue and therefore use a l
45、arger specimen than may eventually be found necessary). Where the service application involves the use of material of insufficient thickness to satisfy the conditions for validity, it is permissible to test specimens of similar thickness, provided that it is clearly stated that the threshold intensi
46、ty value obtained, K QSCC , is of relevance only to that specific application. Where it is required to determine stress corrosion crack growth behaviour as a function of stress intensity, the specimen size should be based on an estimate of the highest stress intensity at which crack growth rates are
47、 to be measured. 5.1.4 A wide choice of specimen geometries is available to suit the form of the test material, the experimental facilities available and the objectives of the test. Two basic types of specimen can be used a) those intended for being loaded by means of a tensile force; b) those inten
48、ded for being loaded by means of a bending force. This means that crack growth can be studied under either bend or tension loading conditions. The specimens can be used for either the determination of K ISCCby the initiation of a stress corrosion crack from a pre- existing fatigue crack using a series of specimens and for measurements of crack growth rates. Since the specimens are loaded duri
