Compressive residual stress generation at crack tip in bulk metal using acoustic cavitation

초록/요약 도움말

We propose to generate compressive residual stress at the crack tip in the bulk metal by introducing acoustic cavitation to the crack tip. We conducted experiments using pre-cracked specimens to measure compressive residual stress at the crack tip achieved by the acoustic cavitation. In the experiments, the pre-cracked metal specimens were subject to an acoustic load with a frequency of 20 kHz to introduce acoustic cavitation to the crack tip. We found that the acoustic cavitation generates a significant amount of compressive residual stress at the crack tip and the generated compressive residual stress effectively retarded the crack growth.
