The initiation and growth of fatigue microcracks in a BS 4368-500 structural steel has been studied in laboratory air and in aerated 3.5% NaCl solution. Experiments were performed using constant load fully reversed bending at a frequency of 25 Hz. Particular emphasis has been placed on the role of inclusions in crack initiation and growth. The fatigue strength of the material reduced in the aqueous environment to 130 MPa compared with 290 MPa in air. In air, microcracks initiated at oxide inclusions by the debonding of the inclusion-matrix interface. In chloride solution, crack initiation occurred at corrosion pits associated with sulphide inclusions. The average crack growth rates in NaCl solution were higher than those in air, as determined by observation of the crack length at intervals throughout the tests. The crack path was controlled by the distribution of inclusions along the highly stressed portion of the specimen surface.

Initiation and early growth of short fatigue cracks at inclusions Kaynak, Cevdet; Baker, TJ (Informa UK Limited, 1996-05-01) In this study, the initiation and early growth behaviour of short fatigue cracks in En7A steel with a high content of elongated MnS inclusions was investigated by generating and evaluating data on the growth of short fatigue cracks under various stress levels and stress ratios for the six principal specimen orientations. Short cracks usually initiated at the debonded interfaces between the matrix and the inclusions. If there was no debonding, cracking sometimes occurred in the inclusions. In the early stage...
The defect state of Yb-doped ZnO nanoparticles using thermoluminescence study Hasanlı, Nızamı (Elsevier BV, 2019-09-01) Shallow trapping centers in Yb-doped ZnO nanoparticles were determined using thermoluminescence (TL) measurements applied in the 10-300 K temperature region. Undoped and Yb-doped ZnO nanoparticles were synthesized by sol-gel method. TL glow curve of undoped nano-particles presented three peaks around 56, 108 and 150 K whereas one additional peak around 83 K was observed in the TL curve of Yb-doped ZnO nano-particles. The increase of Yb concentration in the nanoparticles increased the TL intensity of this ad...
Preparation and characterization of zeolite framework stabilized cuprous oxide nanoparticles Zahmakiran, Mehmet; Özkar, Saim (Elsevier BV, 2009-05-15) Zeolite framework stabilized copper(I) oxide nanoparticles (4.8 +/- 2.6 nm) were prepared for the first time by using a four step procedure: the ion exchange of Cu(2+) ions with the extra framework Na(+) ions in Zeolite-Y, the reduction of the Cu(2+) ions within the cavities of zeolite with sodium borohydride in aqueous solution, the dehydration of Zeolite-Y with the copper(0) nanoclusters, and the oxidation of intrazeolite copper(0) nanoclusters by O(2) at room temperature. Zeolite stabilized copper(I) oxi...
Microstructural investigation of Cu2+ doped nanohydroxyapatites Evis, Zafer (Informa UK Limited, 2010-05-01) Pure and Cu2+ doped nanohydroxyapatites were synthesised by a precipitation method to investigate the effect of Cu2+ ions on the structure of hydroxyapatite (HA) and its thermal stability after the air sintering at 1100 degrees C. A small amount of CaO was observed in the Cu2+ doped HAs after the X-ray diffraction results. The addition of Cu2+ changed the hexagonal lattice parameters of the HA and resulted in smaller grain size after sintering at 1100 degrees C. The addition of Cu2+ ions into HA resulted in...
Temperature dependent band gap in SnS2xSe(2-2x) (x=0.5) thin films Delice, S.; Isik, M.; Gullu, H. H.; Terlemezoglu, M.; Surucu, O. Bayrakli; Hasanlı, Nızamı; Parlak, Mehmet (Elsevier BV, 2020-08-01) Structural and optical properties of SnS2xSe(2-2x) thin films grown by magnetron sputtering method were investigated for composition of x = 0.5 (SnSSe) in the present study. X-ray diffraction, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy and scanning electron microscopy methods were used for structural characterization while temperature-dependent transmission measurements carried out at various temperatures in between 10 and 300 K were accomplished for optical investigations. X-ray diffract...
