Compression-compression fatigue of Pd_(43)Ni_(10)Cu_(27)P_(20) metallic glass foam

Abstract

Compression-compression fatigue testing of metallic-glass foam is performed. A stress-life curve is constructed, which reveals an endurance limit at a fatigue ratio of about 0.1. The origin of fatigue resistance of this foam is identified to be the tendency of intracellular struts to undergo elastic and reversible buckling, while the fatigue process is understood to advance by anelastic strut buckling leading to localized plasticity (shear banding) and ultimate strut fracture. Curves of peak and valley strain versus number of cycles coupled with plots of hysteresis loops and estimates of energy dissipation at various loading cycles confirm the four stages of foam-fatigue.
