X-ray fractography is a new method utilizing the X-ray diffraction technique to observe the fracture surface for the analysis of the micro-mechanisms and mechanics of fracture.In the present paper, X-ray fractography is applied to fracture surfaces of high strength aluminum alloy (JIS 7075-T6). The fracture toughness tests were conducted by using compact tension (CT) specimens with blunt notches and fatigue pre-cracks. The distribution of the residual stress near fracture surfaces was measured by the X-ray diffraction method. The effect of the notch radius on the fracture toughness value was discussed.

X–ray fractography is a new method utilizing the X–ray diffraction technique to observe the fracture surface for the analysis of the micromechanisms and mechanics of fracture.In the present study, X–ray fractography was applied to brittle fracture of alumina ceramics. The first part deals with our new method of pre–cracking of ceramics. Pre–cracking was introduced to a singleedge notched specimen by longitudinal compression. Then the fracture toughness tests were conducted with pre–cracked specimens as well as notched ones. The effect of the notch radius on the fracture–toughness value was determined. The second part describes the result of X–ray fractography.

X-ray diffraction observation of metal fractures provides fracture analysists with useful information on the mechanisms and mechanical conditions of fracturing. This method is called “X-ray fractography” and has been developed especially in Japan as a new engineering tool for fracture analysis.In the present paper, X-ray fractography is applied to fracture surfaces of ductile cast iron (JIS FCD 60) which are widely used as machine parts. The fracture toughness tests were conducted at ambient and low temperatures by using compact tension (CT) specimens with blunt notches and three-point bending (TPB) specimens with fatigue pre-cracks. The line broadening of X-ray diffraction profiles was measured on and beneath fracture surfaces of fracture toughness specimens.

X-ray diffraction observation of the material internal structure beneath fracture surfaces provide fracture analysists with useful information to investigate the conditions and mechanisms of fracture. X-ray fractography is a generic name given to this technique. In the present study, the residual stress on the fracture surface of the compact tension specimens for toughness tests was measured by X-ray diffraction. The effects of notch-tip radius and tempering temperature on the fracture toughness are discussed based on the results of X-ray fractography and fracture micromechanisms.

X-ray fractography is a new method utilizing the X-ray diffraction technique to observe the fracture surface for the analysis of the micromechanisms and mechanics of fracture. The line broadening of X-ray diffraction profiles and the residual stress are two of the important X-ray parameters. Among them, the X-ray residual stress has been confirmed to be particularly useful for the fracture surfaces of high strength steels, and applied to the fracture surface of fracture toughness specimens and the fatigue fracture surface.

The residual stress left on the fracture surface is one of the important parameters in X-ray fractographic study. It has been used to analyze fracture mechanisms in fracture toughness and fatigue tests especially of high strength steels.In this paper, X-ray fractography was applied to brittle fracture of alumina (Al2O3) and zirconia (ZΓO2) ceramics.

X-ray diffraction method has been employed to calibrate the stress of 6082 aluminum alloy which has been widely used among modern industrial products. Based on elastic tensile conditions, by designing rod sample of uniform intensity calibration (RSUIC), the stress measurement by X-ray diffraction method has been verificated by using elastic tensile theory calculation method and electrometric method. The results show that the stress measured by the tensile stress theoretical calculation, electrometric method and X-ray diffraction method was in good accordance with each other. And the matching relation between the surface stress measured by X-ray diffraction and the internal stress is investigated. The research will lay a foundation for the application of iXRD stress instrument for nondestructive measuring the welding residual stress of aluminum alloy.
