Deformation mechanisms at the tip of internal fatigue cracks in vacuum and in the presence of an air environment in a Ti alloy
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Ultrasonic fully reversed tension fatigue tests have been performed in the Very High Cycle Fatigue (VHCF) regime ( N R > 1 0 7 − 1 0 8 c y c l e s ) on Ti-6Al4V specimens containing a controlled internal notch. Two sets of samples have been used. The first one contains a central chimney along the specimen longitudinal axis which brings air to the internal notch; in the second series the notches are not connected to the surface. The microstructure present below the fracture surface of the broken specimens has been studied by electron microscopy (EBSD, TKD and TEM). The formation of nanograins and nanovoids was observed below the surface of the cracks growing in a vacuum environment but not below the surface of cracks connected with ambient air. In the latter case extensive striations were observed. Below each striation the formation of tensile {10 1 ̄ 2} twins was observed. • Fatigue samples with sharp internal defects with or without connection with air are tested. • Growth mechanisms of internal crack are observed with or without air at the crack tip. • Striation marks are observed on the internal crack surfaces propagating in air. • No striation marks are observed on the internal crack surfaces growing in vacuum. • Twins are observed below the striation for the cracks growing in air.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
