Summary

Basic mechanical tests of engineering materials in relationship with the action of various degradation processes. Principal kinds of engineering materials failure. Testing of mechanical overloading in the case of ductile fracture. Principles and testing of resistance to fatigue failure, creep, corrosion, stress corrosion cracking and to basic mechanisms of wear of functional surfaces. Methods of evaluation of experimental results and their interpretation.

Definition of toughness; influence of loading rate; influence of stress concentration; notch toughness test; temperature dependence of toughness, relation to the structure. 3. Material degradation during service. Principles of degradation, high/low energy fractures. Mechanism of ductile fracture, mechanisms of brittle fracture. 4. Fracture mechanics. Basic principles, elastic solution – Griffith’s relation; elastic-plastic solution – Griffith-Orowan’s relation; stress intensity factor; fracture toughness. 5. Fatigue of materials. Cyclic stress and strain; initiation and growth of fatigue cracks; life curves; factors influencing resistance to fatigue; methods of evaluation of resistance to fatigue damage. 6. Corrosion degradation of materials. Electrochemical corrosion; anodic/catodic reactions; Pourbaix’s diagrams; Faraday’s law, corrosion rate; passivity of metals; local corrosion; methods of evaluation of materials resistance to corrosion. 7. Creep degradation of materials. Influence of stress and temperature; the most important creep mechanisms; Larson-Miller parameter; methods of evaluation and extrapolation of experimental data. 8. Wear of materials. Adhesive, abrasive, erosive wear; main parameters; materials testing. 9. Radiation degradation of materials. Radiation strengthening/embrittlement; photo degradation of polymers. 10. Non-destructive material testing.
