Abstract
By using digital image correlation (DIC), low-cycle fatigue (LCF) behavior of CrMoV weld joint taken from a retired gas turbine rotor after 15-year service was investigated at 500 °C and 540 °C. The most remarkable plastic strain was observed in the weld metal (WM), which was up to 6 times of the global strain at mid-life cycle. Due to the cyclic accumulation of local deformation, the stress–strain hysteresis loops relative to tensile or compressive strain concentration area in WM displayed the ratchetting shape. The local deformation accumulation of WM was attributed to the effect of the equiaxed grain zone near the WM center. The accumulated plastic strain was considered as the main fatigue failure mechanism.
