This paper summarizes an investigation of the effect of fillet rolling on fatigue behavior of a ductile cast iron crankshaft used in diesel engine applications. Based on the staircase test methodology, resonant bending fatigue tests were conducted to obtain stress versus number of cycles curves and to evaluate the fatigue endurance limits of ductile iron crankshaft under fillet rolled and un-rolled conditions. The corresponding stress levels on the fillet region by the applied test moments were calculated by the finite element modeling of the crankshaft test rig. Test data was analyzed by Dixon-Mood method to calculate the endurance limits. Fracture surface examination was conducted macroscopically and by scanning electron microscope. Fatigue endurance limits measured for un-rolled and rolled crankshafts are 201 MPa and 811 MPa respectively, emphasizing a significant fatigue endurance limit improvement by fillet rolling process.

Evaluation of effect of fillet rolling process on the fatigue performance of a diesel engine crankshaft Çevik, Gül; Gürbüz, Rıza; Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering (2012) In this study, effect of fillet rolling process on fatigue performance of a diesel engine crankshaft was investigated. Crankshafts from two different materials, were studied; ductile cast iron EN-GJS 800-2 and micro-alloyed steel 38MnVS6. Resonance bending fatigue tests were conducted with crankshaft samples. Test plan according to staircase test methodology was used. Statistical analyses were carried out with the test data by Maximum Likelihood Estimation method in order to calculate the fatigue limits and...
Investigating the Effects of Repair Welding on Microstructure, Mechanical Properties, and Corrosion Behavior of IN-939 Superalloy Mashhuriazar, Amirhossein; Badihehaghdam, Mohammadhassan; Gür, Cemil Hakan; Ertürk, Murat Tolga; Batıgün, Caner; Tirkeş, Süha; Sajuri, Zainuddin; Omidvar, Hamid (2022-11-01) This study aimed to investigate the effects of tungsten inert gas (TIG) repair welding on microstructure, mechanical properties, and corrosion resistance of Inconel 939. After welding with Inconel 625 filler under argon atmosphere, the microstructure, hardness, tensile strength, and corrosion resistance of the specimens were analyzed. The results showed that the hardness value and corrosion resistance decreased in the heat-affected zone and particularly in the fusion zone. These changes were attributed to a...
The effect of SN content and isothermal transformation temperature on the mechanical properties of austempered ductile cast iron Özcan, Alper; Atala, Haluk; Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering (2003) In this study the effects of Sn content and isothermal transformation temperature on the ultimate tensile strength (UTS), elongation and hardness of austempered ductile cast iron (ADI) was investigated. To determine the possible effect of Sn on these properties the Sn content of standard GGG30, GGG40 and GGG50 materials were taken as reference, whose chemical compositions vary from 0,016 to 0,050% in terms of Sn. However the Sn content was increased to a maximum of 0,26% for investigating the effect of Sn o...
Experimental investigation of the effects of waveform tip injection on the characteristics of tip leakage vortex in a lpt cascade Mercan, Bayram; Uzol, Oğuz; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2012) This study presents the results of an experimental study that investigates the effects of uniform/waveform tip injection along the camberline on the total pressure loss characteristics downstream of a row of Low Pressure Turbine (LPT) blades. The experiments are performed in a low speed cascade facility. This injection technique involves spanwise jets at the tip that are issued from a series of holes along the camber line normal to the freestream flow direction. The injection mass flow rate from each hole i...
Investigating the effect of deformation and annealing texture on magnetic anisotropy in low-C steel sheets by magnetic Barkhausen noise method Akçaoğlu, Fehmi Ümit; Gür, Cemil Hakan; Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering (2013) Deformation and annealing texture in the cold rolled low carbon steels is important for sheet metal forming operations and service performance. The aim of this study is to non-destructively investigate the effect of texture on magnetic anisotropy. Various samples having different textures and residual stress states, due to different % reduction in thickness, annealing and stress relieving treatment, were prepared. Texture maps were obtained by Magnetic Barkhausen noise measurements performed with 100 steps ...
