摘要
Fatigue life modeling of titanium-based metal-matrix composites (MMCs) was accomplished by combining a unified viscoplastic theory, a non-linear micromechanics analysis and a damage accumulation model. The micromechanics analysis employed the Bodner-Partom unified viscoplastic theory with directional hardening. This analysis was then combined with a life-fraction fatigue model to account for the time-dependent component of fatigue damage. The life-fraction fatigue model involved the linear summation of damage from the fiber and matrix constituents of the composite. A single set of empirical constants for the life-fraction fatigue model were established for each of two titanium MMCs reinforced with silicon carbide fibers: SCS-6/Ti-15-3 and SCS-6/TIMETAL(R)21s. The predicted fatigue lives were within one order cf magnitude of the experimental data for different loading conditions: isothermal fatigue, and both in-phase and out-of-phase thermomechanical fatigue. MMCs modeled included cross-ply, quasi-isotropic and unidirectional SCS-6/TIMETAL(R)21s, and cross-ply and quasi-isotropic SCS-6iTi-15-3 laminates. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Limited.
