Effect of loading condition and stress state on damage evolution of silicon particles in an Al-Si-Mg-Base cast alloy

Abstract: Damage evolution of Si particles in a Sr modified cast A356(T6) Al alloy is quantitatively characterized as a function of strain under tension, compression, and torsion. The fraction of damaged Si particles, their size distributions, and orientation distribution of particle cracks are measured by image analysis and stereological techniques. Silicon particle cracking and debonding are the predominant damage modes. Particle debonding is observed only under externally applied tensile loads, whereas particle crack… Show more

“…[9][10][11] The plastic behaviour and fracture of cast aluminium alloys is furthermore highly affected by the characteristics [12][13][14] and damage 11,[15][16][17][18] of the Si-particles, where especially ductility 13 and strain hardening rate is increased with increased aspect ratio of the Si-particles. 15,16,19,20 Damage of the Si-particles consists of three stages: cracking or debonding, microcrack formation and growth, and local linkage of microcracks, 6,21 and both cracked 6,11,17,18 and debonded 18,22 particles may initiate global fracture. Particle fracture is caused by incompatibility stresses between particle and matrix, 18,22 and in general larger and longer particles are more likely to crack.…”

“…Ductile fracture of many technologically important materials involves cracking the intermetallic inclusions/particles, the growth of voids at the cracked particles, and void coalescence [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10]. Such damage evolution processes are associated with deformation and fracture of ferrous as well as nonferrous alloys.…”

“…There have been numerous investigations on the characterization of particle cracking damage in wrought and cast Al-alloys [4,[6][7][8][9][10]. Nonetheless, all earlier investigations involved manual detection of cracked particles, which is very laborious and time consuming.…”
