Abstract

GH4169 joints manufactured by Linear Friction Welding (LFW) are subjected to tensile test and stair-case method to evaluate the High Cycle Fatigue (HCF) performance at 650 ℃. The yield and ultimate tensile strengths are 582 MPa and 820 MPa, respectively. The HCF strength of joint reaches 400 MPa, which is slightly lower than that of Base Metal (BM), indicating reliable quality of this type of joint. The microstructure observation results show that all cracks initiate at the inside of specimens and transfer into deeper region with decrease of external stress, and the crack initiation site is related with microhardness of matrix. The Electron Backscattered Diffraction (EBSD) results of the observed regions with different distances to fracture show that plastic deformation plays a key role in HCF, and the Schmid factor of most grains near fracture exceeds 0.4. In addition, the generation of twins plays a vital role in strain concentration release and coordinating plastic deformation among grains. © 2024
