Low Cycle Fatigue Behavior of a New Type of Zircaloy Material

Abstract:

To investigate the property of a new type of Zircaloy material, a low cycle fatigue (LCF) test has been performed at room temperature (RT) and 375°C. Results show that the new alloy generally displays cyclic hardening followed by a continuous softening behavior. Fatigue lifetime curves as a function of strain range imply that the new alloy has a nearly same lifetime than that of Zr-4 at RT, and superior than that at 375°C.
