Abstract:
The evolution of the science of fractography of brittle materials initially was driven by failure analysis problems. Early analyses focused on general patterns of fracture and how they correlated to the loading conditions. Many early documents are simply descriptive, but the curiosity of some key scientists and engineers was aroused. Scientific or engineering explanations for the observed patterns gradually were developed. Advances in microscopy and flaw based theories of strength and fracture mechanics led to dramatic advances in the state of the art of fractographic analysis of brittle materials. Introduction: This author was drawn backwards in time as he researched the current state of the art of fractographic analysis of brittle materials for his fractography guide book.[ ] Others have written about how the fractographic analysis of metals evolved (e.g., [ , , , ]), but there is no analogue for ceramics and glasses. The key scientists, engineers, and analysts who contributed to our field are shown in Fig. 1. Other work done by industry workers who were unable or loathe to publish is now lost, inaccessible, forgotten, or even discarded. It is the goal of this paper to review the key publications and mark the noteworthy advances in the field. Some deem fractography as the study of fracture surfaces, but this author takes a broader view. Fractography is the means and methods for characterizing fractured specimens or components and, for example, a simple examination of the fragments and how they fit together to study the overall breakage pattern is a genuine fractographic analysis.

Abstract Since 2013, the AG Fraktographie (Working Group (WG) Fractography) in the DVM/DGM Joint Committee “Elektronenmikroskopie in der Materialforschung” (Electron Microscopy in Materials Research) maintains a fractographic online database (“FractoDB”, [1, 2]) available to interested professionals. When it comes to identifying failure mechanisms and causes of damage, the analysis and evaluation of fracture surfaces and their characteristics constitute important aspects of the failure analysis. Cracks and fractures in real components can only be assessed if well-documented comparative fractures from laboratory tests are available – be it in samples or in comparison components. The WG Fractography therefore gathers image material, systematically carries out laboratory and round robin tests, and analyzes fractures from failure cases. From thus obtained data, datasets are compiled and made available via the database. Currently, a browsable inventory of more than 400 datasets with a total of more than 4500 images is available. It is organized in line with guideline VDI 3822 [3]. Other activities of the WG Fractography represented in the FractoDB include, among others, the development of a fractographic set of symbols [4, 5] and the analysis of fracture characteristics using machine learning [6]. This contribution reports on latest results and plans.

Si3N4 is widely used as a structural ceramic, therefore mechanical characterization, especially in dynamic loading conditions is important task. In the framework of a comprehensive research work aiming at characterizing the dynamic failure process of Si3N4 based ceramics we executed instrumented impact tests. Beside determining various mechanical characteristics we executed failure analysis by fractography, as well. The current paper focuses on the fractographic analysis of the dynamic failure processes of the investigated Si3N4 based ceramics. A detailed morphological analysis has been carried out determining qualitative and quantitative features using macro- and micro-fractography.

Abstract:
Coal fractography is a powerful tool for interpreting coal fracture behaviors, which is significant for dealing with failure issues encountered in deep coal mining. However, the accuracy of coal fractography highly depends on the method of quantitatively characterizing coal fracture surfaces. In this study, coal fractography under dynamic impact loading was investigated based on a multifractal method, the multifractal spectrum parameters were proposed to quantitatively describe the coal fracture surfaces. The width of the multifractal spectrum [Formula: see text] characterizes the uniformity of the surface asperity distribution, and the spectrum parameter [Formula: see text]–[Formula: see text] characterizes the proportion of dominant asperities on fracture surface. The coal fractography results indicate that larger loading rate leads to more asperities on the coal fracture surfaces, i.e. rougher fracture surfaces, and the fracture surfaces are dominated by small asperities induced by dynamic impact loading. In addition, significant anisotropy effect was found on the fracture surfaces under dynamic impact loading by the spatial distributions of multifractal spectrum parameter [Formula: see text]. The parameter [Formula: see text] was further utilized to determine the macrocrack direction and microfracture markings on the coal fracture surfaces, the results transpire that the multifractal method is feasible for coal fractographic analysis under dynamic loading conditions.

This paper presents fractographic and microstructural analysis of as-built and stress relieved DMLS Ti6Al4V (ELI) plates with thicknesses of 8 mm, 10 mm, 12 mm, and 14 mm, impacted by high velocity projectiles. Fractography was performed through scanning electron microscopy on the surfaces of the projectile holes, while microstructural analysis of specimens extracted from the plates close to and far from the projectile holes was conducted by way of optical microscopy. Fractography revealed brittle behavior at the entry points of the penetration holes and ductile behavior at the exit points of the penetration holes. Microstructural analysis revealed microstructural changes in the alloy and a gradual increase of the β-phase fraction toward the edge of the projectile holes through all the plate thicknesses.

Abstract:
The manifestations of ancient metals’ embrittlement, cracking and fracture, are challenging problems for restorers and conservators, yet the scientific understanding of these problems is limited. In particular, the study and interpretation of fracture surfaces, fractography, is a minor or non-existent consideration for most archaeometallurgical investigations. This paper presents a survey of fractographic analyses, in combination with the more widely used disciplines of microstructural studies, metallography, and chemical analyses for some Old-World copper alloy (bronzes) and high-silver alloy artifacts that have undergone long-term corrosion and embrittlement damage. We show that fractography, as an adjunct to metallography, can improve the interpretation of these types of damage and assist in selecting the best methods for restoration and conservation of the objects made from these alloys.

Abstract:
The reconstitution of the history of a fatigue process is based on the knowledge of any correspondences between the morphology of the crack surface and the velocity of the crack growth (crack growth rate - CGR). The textural fractography is oriented to mezoscopic SEM magnifications (30 to 500x). Images contain complicated textures without distinct borders. The aim is to find any characteristics of this texture, which correlate with CGR. Pre-processing of images is necessary to obtain a homogeneous texture. Three methods of textural analysis have been developed and realized as computational programs: the method based on the spectral structure of the image, the method based on a Gibbs random field (GRF) model, and the method based on the idealization of light objects into a fibre process. In order to extract and analyze the fibre process, special methods - tracing fibres and a database-oriented analysis of a fibre process - have been developed.

Abstract:
The manner of studying of the fracture modes could be done through fractography. Fractography is the study of fracture surface morphologies and it gives an insight into damage and failure mechanisms, underpinning the development of physically-based failure criteria. In composites research it provides a crucial link between predictive models and experimental observations. Fractographic methods are routinely used to determine the cause of failure in all engineering structures, especially in product failure and the practice of forensic engineering or failure analysis. In material science research, fractography is used to develop and evaluate theoretical models of crack growth behavior. One of the aims of fractographic examination is to determine the cause of failure by studying the characteristics of a fracture surface. Different types of crack growth produce characteristic features on the surface, which can be used to help identify the failure mode. The overall pattern of cracking can be more important than a single crack, however, especially in the case of brittle behavior materials. Initial fractographic examination is commonly carried out on a macro scale utilizing low power optical microscopy and oblique lighting techniques to identify the extent of cracking, possible modes and likely origins. When it is needed to identify the nature of failure, an analysis at high magnification is required and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) seems to be the best choice. The problem of fracture behavior of biometallic materials is a real one, being well and repeatedly presented in literature. Variations in alloy compositions can lead to subtle differences in mechanical, physical, or electrochemical properties. However, these differences are minor compared with the potential variability caused by differences in fabrication methodology, heat treatment, cold working, and surface finishing, where surface treatments are particularly important for corrosion and wear properties. The aim of this paper, therefore, is to summarize the different types of metals and alloys used as biomaterials, the corrosion of metals in the human body, and different failure damages of metallic implants.

Abstract:
This work aims to characterize the influence of hygrothermal conditioning on the mechanical and thermal behavior as well as the fractographic aspects of the interface of poly(ether imide) and glass fiber composite joints welded by electrical resistance using 400 mesh of AISI 304 stainless steel. The composites were mechanically characterized by Lap Shear Strength (LSS) and End Notched Flexure (ENF) testing to investigate maximum shear stress and energy from mode II interlaminar fracture toughness. Fractography was performed by SEM, while the influence on glass transition temperature and working temperature were evaluated by Dynamic-Mechanical Analysis and thermogravimetry. In the conditioned samples, the mechanical properties reduced 23% in the LSS test and 28% in the ENF test, while the fractography studies revealed elements of interlaminar and intralaminar fracture in both conditions. Thermal properties did not change significantly to disqualify this composite when applied to welding.

Abstract:
This thesis looks into the examination of polymer composite wreckage from the perspective of the aircraft accident investigator. It develops an understanding of the process of wreckage examination as well as identifying the potential for visual and macroscopic interpretation of polymer composite aircraft wreckage. The in-field examination of aircraft wreckage, and subsequent interpretations of material failures, can be a significant part of an aircraft accident investigation. As the use of composite materials in aircraft construction increases, the understanding of how macroscopic failure characteristics of composite materials may aid the field investigator is becoming of increasing importance. The first phase of this research project was to explore how investigation practitioners conduct wreckage examinations. Four accident investigation case studies were examined. The analysis of the case studies provided a framework of the wreckage examination process. Subsequently, a literature survey was conducted to establish the current level of knowledge on the visual and macroscopic interpretation of polymer composite failures. Relevant literature was identified and a compendium of visual and macroscopic characteristics was created. Two full-scale polymer composite wing structures were loaded statically, in an upward bending direction, until each wing structure fractured and separated. The wing structures were subsequently examined for the existence of failure characteristics. The examination revealed that whilst characteristics were present, the fragmentation of the structure destroyed valuable evidence. A hypothetical accident scenario utilising the fractured wing structures was developed, which UK government accident investigators subsequently investigated. This provided refinement to the investigative framework and suggested further guidance on the interpretation of polymer composite failures by accident investigators.

Abstract:
SUMMARY GTD-111 DS is a directionally solidified superalloy currently used in turbine engines. To accurately predict the life of engine components it is essential to examine and characterize the microstructural evolution of the material and its effects on material properties. The as-cast microstructure of GTD-111 is highly inhomogeneous as a result of coring. The current post-casting heat treatments do not effectively eliminate the inhomogeneity. This inhomogeneity affects properties including tensile strength, fracture toughness, fracture path, and corrosion behavior, primarily in terms of the number of grains per specimen. The goal of this work was to link microstructural features to these properties. Quantitative fractography was used to determine that the path of cracks during failure of tensile specimens is influenced by the presence of carbides, which are located in the interdendritic regions of the material as dictated by segregation. The solvus temperature of the precipitate phase, Ni3(Al, Ti), was determined to be 1200C using traditional metallography, differential thermal analysis, and dilatometry. A heat-treatment was designed to homogenize the microstructure for tensile testing that isolates the carbide by dissolving all of the eutectic Ni3(Al, Ti) precipitate phase, which is also found in the interdendritic areas. High temperature oxidation/sulfidation tests were conducted to investigate the corrosion processes involved when GTD-111 DS is utilized in steam and gas combustion turbine engines. The kinetics of corrosion in both oxidizing and sulfidizing atmospheres were determined using thermogravimetric analysis. Additionally, metallography of these samples after TGA revealed a correlation between the presence of grain boundaries and sulfur attack, which led to catastrophic failure of the material under stress-free conditions in a sulfur bearing environment. In summary, this work correlates the inhomogeneous microstructure of GTD-111 DS to tensile fracture, and the corrosion process in turbine engines.

Resumo: Este estudo avaliou o efeito do tratamento de superfície na resistência adesiva à tração (s) entre resina e as cerâmicas IPS Empress®(E1) e VITAVM7®(V7) e o modo de falha nessa interface adesiva. A metodologia proposta teve por finalidade testar a hipótese de que a s entre resina e cerâmica é controlada pelo tratamento de superfície das cerâmicas. Foram confeccionados 10 blocos de uma cerâmica a base de leucita, (E1) e de uma cerâmica feldspática com duas fases vítreas (V7), que foram polidos até a granulação de 1 µm. Os blocos de cada cerâmica foram divididos aleatoriamente em dois grupos e tiveram suas superfícies tratadas como segue (n=5): Grupos E1HF e V7HF: aplicação de ácido hidrofluorídrico a 9,5% (HF - Ultradent) aplicado por 60 s; Grupos E1CS e V7CS: jateamento com partículas de alumina modificadas por sílica (CS ¿ Cojet System, 3M-Espe), aplicado por 15 s. As superfícies cerâmicas tratadas foram lavadas, secadas e o silano foi aplicado deixando-o evaporar. Aplicaram-se duas camadas finas de adesivo (Single Bond, 3M), seguido da aplicação de camadas de 2 mm de resina composta (Z250, 3M), que foram fotopolimerizadas durante 40 s cada uma. Os blocos cerâmica-adesivo-resina composta foram seccionados em dois eixos, x e y, obtendo-se corpos-de-prova em forma de barras (n=30), com área adesiva média de 1,04 mm2. Os corpos-de-prova foram armazenados em água destilada a 37°C por uma semana antes do teste de tração em uma máquina de ensaios universal com velocidade de carga de 1.0 mm.min-1, seguido da análise microscópica da superfície fraturada. A análise estatística foi realizada pela análise de variância, teste de Tukey (a=.01) e análise de Weibull. As médias e desvio padrão da s (MPa) foram: E1HF: 29,8±4,5(a); E1CS: 24,6±5,6(b); V7HF: 22,3±4,0(b); V7CS: 15,7±6,9(c). Os valores médios de s do Grupo E1HF foram significativamente maiores que os valores médios dos demais grupos (p=0,0001). As duas cerâmicas apresentaram valores médios de s significativamente maiores quando tratadas com HF do que com CS (p=0,0001). Todas as fraturas ocorreram dentro da zona adesiva. O módulo de Weibull (m) foi mais alto para o Grupo E1HF (7,66), e o Grupo V7CS mostrou o valor mais baixo de m (2,54). Os resultados confirmam a hipótese inicial de que a s da resina à cerâmica é controlada, primariamente, pelo tratamento de superfície do material cerâmico
Abstract: This study evaluated the effect of ceramic surface treatments on tensile bond strength (s) and the mode of failure of a resin bonded to two types of ceramics, testing the hypothesis that s of ceramics to resin is controlled by the ceramic surface treatment. Methods: Ten blocks of each the hot-pressed leucite-based ceramic (E1- IPS Empress) and the two-phase glassy feldspathic ceramic (V7-VITAVM7) were fabricated, polished through 1 µm alumina abrasive, and divided into two groups per ceramic (n=5): Groups E1HF and V7HF, 9.5% hydrofluoric acid (HF) was applied for 60 s; Groups E1CS e V7CS, silica coating (CS) using Cojet System (3M-Espe) for 15 s. The treated ceramic surfaces were washed and dried. Silane was applied and let to evaporate. An adhesive resin (Single Bond, 3M) followed by a resin composite (Z250, 3M) were applied on the ceramic treated surfaces and light cured. The composite-ceramic blocks were cut to produce bar-shaped specimens with a mean bonding area of 1.04 mm2 (n=30). Specimens were stored in 37°C distilled water for 1 week before tensile loading to failure in a universal testing machine with cross-head speed of 1.0 mm.min-1. Fracture surfaces were examined under scanning electron microscope (SEM). Results were statistically analyzed using one way ANOVA, Tukey¿s test and Weibull analyses. Results: Mean s and standard deviation (MPa) values were as follows: E1HF: 29.8±4.5(a); E1CS: 24.6±5.6(b); V7HF: 22.3±4.0(b); V7CS: 15.7±6.9(c). Mean s value of Group E1HF was statistically higher than the other Groups mean values (p=0.0001). HF treatment produced significantly higher mean s value than CS treatment, independent of the ceramic material (p=0.0001). All fractures occurred within the adhesion zone. E1HF showed the highest Weibull modulus (m) value (7.66) and V7CS exhibited the lowest m value (2.54). Conclusion: Results confirmed the testing hypothesis that s of ceramics to resin is controlled primarily by the ceramic surface treatment

Fracture surface express the sequence of energy release events during crack propagation and, in the case of metallic alloys, the topographic evolution can descrbr the action of load lines, failures due to using processing, and others. In the cases, the quantitative fractography can help the investigation of failures in structures and manufacturing processes. In this work, two correlation analyses were carried out: the first between the stretch zone width (SZW) and fracture toughness (Kc) and the second between Kc and the fractality of the fractured surface topography, both analyzed by digital image processing. The 15-5PH stee and AA7475 aluminium alloy fracture surfaces for analysis were obtained by toughness testing. Each seurface was mapped by extend depth of field technique, and the following fractal dimension values were calculated for each mapped position: monofractal dimension (Df), structural dimension (Ds) and textural dimension (DT). The results for analysis between LZE and Kc data showed a high correlation for 15-5PH steel, also checking the validity of the delimitation method of SZW and the image reconstruction process. The fractal analysis showed that as higher the ductility of the material, as lower will be the level of linear correlation obtained between toughness and the fractal values. However, for 15-5PH steel, with behavior ranging between the linear-elastic and elastic-plastic, the level of linear correlation between Kc and the fractal values tend to be significant, especially for established correlations involving the textural dimension (Dt). However, for AA 7475 aluminium alloy no significant correlation could be established due to predominance of shallow dimples

Abstract:
The effects of systematic variations in the size and volume fraction of reinforcing phase on the mechanical properties of and fracture processes in silicon carbide particlereinforced aluminium matrix composites have been studied. Tensile tests to failure have been performed to determine the mechanical properties of the composites. A simple model has been proposed for this behaviour. The micromechanisms of fracture have been investigated by a combination of fractographic and dynamic techniques. Matched fracture halves have been obtained from the composites and the fracture processes elucidated. Fracture proceeded by a ductile void nucleation, growth and coalescence mechanism. Void nucleation occurred at the reinforcing phase, with a change in nucleation mechanism on varying the micrstructural parameters. A simple critical stress criterion has been proposed for the nucleation process. Support for this proposal has been obtained by the study of sections through the failed tensile specimens. In situ scanning electron microscopy fracture studies have been performed. These revealed void nucleation before the onset of macroscopic cracking. Crack propagation has been shown to occur by the concurrent formation of microcracks ahead of the crack tip and failure of the joining matrix ligaments. The magnitude of matrix deformation has been shown to determine the extent of microcracking. Acoustic emissions have been monitored during tensile straining. Void nucleation events have been recorded from the onset of plastic deformation and continuing throughout the plastic régime until final failure. The suppression of void coalescence by the constaint imposed on matrix flow by rigidly-bonded interfaces has been proposed to account for the extended void growth in materials containing fractured particles. The importance of the local values of the microstructural parameters on the far-field strain at nucleation has been shown.

Abstract:
Fractography - methods for studying material fractures, the science of the structure of fracture surfaces. Fractography is widely used to determine the causes of destruction of materials and structures. In materials sciences, fractography is used to study crack propagation, microstructure studies, and quality control. When investigating the failure of structures, determining the type of crack (material fatigue, hydrogen embrittlement, stress corrosion cracking, exceeding the permissible load, etc.) makes it possible to determine the cause of the failure. Fractographic studies include the study of a fracture with the naked eye, using an optical and electron microscope. Other methods are also often used, such as measuring hardness or studying the distribution of chemical elements using X-ray spectral microanalysis. Fractographic (or fracture) analysis is the first and obligatory stage of research that must be performed by an expert of the metallurgical examination laboratory when determining the causes of material destruction. Visual examination of the fracture (fracture) surface makes it possible to establish the location of the beginning of fracture, the nature of its further course, to make a judgment about the degree of plasticity of the material and about possible structural defects that led to the initiation and development of cracks. The use of fractographic analysis methods for reconstructing the fracture surface of graphitized cast iron is proposed. The influence of various inclusions in the structure of cast iron is considered. A study of the fracture surface of graphitized cast irons was carried out, and the causes affecting the fracture process were identified.

Abstract:
Results are presented on the detection of critical flaws in hot-pressed Si3N4 with Fe inclusions by nondestructive evaluation (NDE) and fractographic observation. The NDE methods employed included (1) low-energy contact radiography with digital image enhancement and (2) through-transmission and backscatter ultrasonic imaging. A comparison of NDE and fractography results indicates that the backscatter ultrasonic method may be more suitable than low-kV contact radiography for the detection of near-surface flaws.

Abstract:
Abstract Some of the most challenging task in analyzing fractures is a die that has not been fully cracked apart and a cracked die with electrical overstress damage. Traditional tools such as simple magnifying lens, optical microscope and up to the advance Scanning Electron Microscope are not enough to study the internal fractures or markings that could lead back to the origin of the crack. In order to study these internal fractures, the analyst tends to break the sample into pieces. However, this method creates additional mechanical stress and leads to a secondary crack where the point of origin will be difficult to analyze. This paper aims to introduce infrared microscopy in fractography (mainly on silicon) using cases and techniques to minimize the occurrence of secondary crack in analyzing internal fractures.

Abstract:
Phase one report: Crack fields (colonies) in dents are often observed in liquid pipe lines. Because of their colonial appearance, these cracks in dents are often thought to be associated with stress corrosion cracking (SCC). However, a recent full-scale dent fatigue testing under a PRCI mechanical damage program showed that crack colonies in dents can be produced by fatigue. This observation facilitated PRCI to launch a further study of the cracking mechanism in dents using samples extracted from a liquid pipeline. A total of 6 pipe samples containing dent with crack/metal loss were investigated. Evidences from this investigation showed that cracks in dents are aligned in an axial direction with appearance similar to crack colony. Fractographic analyses showed that the mechanism for cracking in these dents was fatigue. No evidence of stress corrosion cracking (SCC) was found. Fractographic analyses also showed that cracks in the colony were associated with a corrosion pit, suggesting corrosion pits are the initiation sites for fatigue crack. A combination of corrosion pitting and fatigue crack growth is the overall mechanism for the observed cracking, that is, corrosion may be the first degrading mechanism followed by the fatigue crack growth. Based on the understanding of the mechanism for cracking, a review is given to the currently available pit-to-crack transition and overall life prediction models. Applicability and limitations of these models to cracks in dent are discussed. Gaps and areas for further study are discussed. An example of rate competing between pit and crack growth and for overall life estimate is illustrated. In this report, sample selection and the approach used in this investigation are presented first. The findings from fractographic analysis are summarized. Currently available modelling efforts for pitto-fatigue are reviewed. Gaps and further research areas are discussed.
