Abstract In this paper, the microstructures and rolling contact fatigue behaviors of laser cladding Inconel 625 coatings with or without post-heat treatments were analyzed. The results revealed that the fatigue resistance of the laser cladding coating after any post-heat treatment was worse than that of the as-deposited coating. First, through the finite element analysis, the distribution of stress along the thickness direction of the coating was obtained, and it was concluded that the bonding interface between the coating and the matrix had little effect on the fatigue properties of the coating. Then X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy… More >

Abstract A study on vibrations related to rolling contact fatigue test bench and a possible way to correlate this mechanical behavior and damage of the specimens is presented. In particular it has been evaluated the possibility to detect and quantify, thanks to vibration analysis, the damage on two discs subjected to rolling contact fatigue in different working conditions. Paper is divided in two parts. In the first part there is a description of test bench and results of its static and modal analyses. Then, some tests were carried out changing working conditions and specimens' parameters and a procedure that allowed both… More >
