Fatigue Properties of Heavy Section GJS-600-10 Cast Iron Castings
摘要
This study investigated the fatigue properties of heavy section solution strengthened ferritic spheroidal cast iron (SSF-DI) EN-GJS-600-10 castings in three different section sizes. A silicon content of 4.0% was used. To estimate the influence of the size of solidification microshrinkage cavities, graphite nodules, and graphite nodule clusters on the fatigue strength of the investigated iron grade, scanning electron microscope inspections of the fracture surfaces and extreme value analysis of the crack initiating defect size,
