The effects of cyclic loading on crack growth, fracture feature and rupture life of superalloy GH2132 have been studied in the present paper. The crack growth tests were carried out at 550 on compact tension specimens under a wide range of load levels and various periods of hold time, and the fracture surfaces were examined on a scanning electron microscope. The results show that, for both static and cyclic creep, Stage-I of crack growth is related with initial test stress, during which the crack extension is about 0.5mm, and that the final effect of cyclic loading on rupture life depends on the counteraction of its two reversed effects on crack growth rate before and after the point n=0.2.

The Si-TaSi2 eutectic in situ composite, which has highly-aligned and uniformly-distributed TaSi2 fibers in the Si matrix, can be obtained when the solidification rate changes from 0.3 to 9.0 mm/min. It is very interesting that one or two TaSi2 fibers are curved when the solidification rate reaches 6.0 mm/min, although it is very brittle in general. The formation mechanism of the curved fiber is discussed and mechanical properties of the TaSi2 fibers are examined by nanoindentation. It is found that the hardness and the elastic modulus of the bended TaSi2 fiber are much higher than that of the straight TaSi2 fiber. Moreover, the reasons why the mechanical properties of the straight TaSi2 fiber are different from that of the curved TaSi2 fiber are discussed. This can be ascribed to internal stress which results from mismatch of the thermal expansion coefficients of the two phases and di®erent crystallographic orientations.

Y2SiO5 has potential applications as functional-structural ceramic and environmental/thermal barrier coating material. As an important grain-boundary phase in the sintered Si3N4, it also influences the mechanical and dielectric performances of the host material. In this paper, we present the mechanical properties of Y2SiO5 including elastic moduli, hardness, strength and fracture toughness, and try to understand the mechanical features from the viewpoint of crystal structure. Y2SiO5 has low shear modulus, low hardness, as well as high capacity for dispersing mechanical damage energy and for resisting crack penetration. Particularly, it can be machined by cemented carbides tools. The crystal structure characteristics of Y2SiO5 suggest the low-energy weakly bonded atomic planes crossed only by the easily breaking Y-O bonds as well as the rotatable rigid SiO4 tetrahedra are the origins of low shear deformation, good damage tolerance and good machinability of this material. TEM observations also demonstrate that the mechanical damage energy was dispersed in the form of the micro-cleavages, stacking faults and twins along these weakly bonded atomic planes. which allows the "microscale-plasticity" for Y2SiO5.

The fabrication. microstructure and mechanical properties of ZrO2-Ni functionally gradient materials (FGM ) have been studied. FGM as well as non-FG M of ZrO2-Ni system was developed by powder metallurgical process. X-ray diffractometer (XRD ). electron probe microanalyzer (EPMA), scanning electron microscope (SEM ) and optical microscope were employed to investigate the crystalline phases. chemical composition and microstructure Experimental results demonstrate that the composition and microstructure of ZrO2-Ni FGM have the expected gradient distribution. There are no distinct interfaces in the FGM due to the gradient change of components. that is, the constituents are continuous in microstructure everywhere. Moreover, Vickers hardness and flexural strength were measured for the common composites as a function of composition. It is made clear that the mechanical properties of the FGM vary corresponding to the constitutional changes as well

In order to interpret the test results of crossweld specimens for application in practical welded components, the present paper studies the high temperature behavior of laboratory cross weld specimens in terms of the uniaxial material tests and numerical simulations. It is found that the crossweld specimen may be used for the high temperature strength assessment, but can hardly be used for life assessment of the practical welded components, which depends on the loading conditions of the components.

Creep and stress relaxation behavior, the elastic modulus and fracture toughness of machinable Ti3SiC2 at various temperatures from 20 to 1250℃ were investigated by means of three-point bending tests. The experiments were performed respectively at: (i) fixed stress and changed temperatures, and (ii) fixed temperature and changed stresses. A creep resistance parameter that represents the probability of creep deformation in a given condition was defined as a function of both applied stress and the threshold stress, varying in a range from 0 to 1. Elastic modulus at high temperatures was measured through comparing relative slopes of loading curves in cyclic loading curve. The fracture toughness measured by SENB method showed a stable value in the range of 25-1000℃, but over 1000℃, it declined abruptly from ～6.7MPa.m^1/2 to～2.0MPa.m^1/2 at 1200℃.

The Rayleigh identity based on a multipole expansion theory is extended to analyze the mechanical properties of electrorheological fluids. Evaluation of the effective dielectric constant is emphasized. The dependence of the shear stress on the shear strain and the shear modulus for chains of particles arranged on a square lattice are presented.

Polymeric sponge replication method is one of the common ways for ceramic foam production. The existence of central triangular voids in the struts results in a decrease of mechanical properties limiting their applications. To remove this defect, some additives consisting of Al powder particles and silica sol are added to ceramic slurries consisting of Al2O3 and ZrO2 (partially stabilized zirconia). With increasing temperature for pyrolyzing and sintering of raw materials, first the Al powder and then the glass phase which consisted of melted Al2O3, ZrO2 and SiO2 was soaked into hollow struts. SEM investigations showed that the center of foam struts were free of hollows. XRD considerations depicted that a ZrO2 phase with tetragonal crystallographic structure is present in the produced foam which could be the reason of improved toughness and mechanical properties. Compressive strength of foams increased significantly due to the decrease of closed porosity. The Weibull statistical study showed remarkable increasing of the Weibull module and its value for foams with 10, 20 and 30~ppi was 5.91, 6.06 and 6.53 respectively.
