摘要
The fatigue behavior of friction stir spot welded （FSSW） AZ31 magnesium alloy sheet joints was investigated by tension- compression of fatigue test. The results suggest that all the fatigue failures occur at the stir zone of the FSSW AZ31 sheet joints, and all cracks initiate at the stir zone outer edge between the upper and lower sheet. When the cycle force equals 1 kN, the crack propagates along the interface of heat-affected zone and thermo-mechanical zone, simultaneously across the direction of force; while the cycle force equals 3 kN, the crack propagates along the diameter of stir zone and shear failure occurs finally. Moreover, the transverse microsections indicate that there is a tongue-like region at the outer edge of stir zone between the two AZ31 sheets, and the direction of tongue-like region is toward outside of the stirred zone and all fatigue cracks initiate at the tongue-like region.
利用拉压疲劳实验研究AZ31板材搅拌摩擦点焊连接件的疲劳行为。结果表明:AZ31镁合金板材搅拌摩擦点焊连接件的疲劳失效均发生在搅拌区,疲劳裂纹均起源于搅拌区外侧边缘,位于上下板之间。当循环加载等于1kN时,疲劳裂纹沿着热影响区和热机械区界面且垂直载荷的方向扩展;而当循环载荷等于3kN时,疲劳裂纹则沿着搅拌区直径方向扩展,并最终发生剪切断裂。另外,断口横截面显微分析显示,在AZ31板间搅拌区外侧存在一个"舌状区","舌状区"的方向是沿搅拌区向外,疲劳裂纹均起源于"舌状区"。
