Influence of Grain Orientation Distribution on the High Temperature Fatigue Behaviour of Notched Specimen Made of Polycrystalline Nickel-Base Superalloy

Abstract

Two different material batches made of random and textured orientated polycrystalline nickel-base superalloy René80 were investigated under isothermal low cycle fatigue tests at 850 °C for a notched specimen geometry. In contrast to a smooth specimen geometry, no significant improvement in fatigue behaviour of the notched specimen could be observed for the textured material. Finite element simulations reveal an area along the notch where high stiffness evolves for the textured material, which lead to nearly similar shear stresses in the slip systems compared to a random orientation distribution and therefore to no distinct differences in the lifetime.
