Influence of tensile strength and ductility on strengths of rotating disks in presence of material and fabrication defects of several types / Arthur G. Holms, Joseph E. Jenkins, and Andrew J. Repko.

The influence of tensile strength and ductility on disk strength was investigated with material and fabrication defects present. In two cases an optimum compromise between tensile strength and ductility occurred at a ductility less than 15 percent elongation. In a third case, no influence of ductili...

Description
Summary:The influence of tensile strength and ductility on disk strength was investigated with material and fabrication defects present. In two cases an optimum compromise between tensile strength and ductility occurred at a ductility less than 15 percent elongation. In a third case, no influence of ductility was observed. When compared with performance previously observed for disks not containing irregularities, losses in disk strength for the defects investigated varied from 23 percent to 58 percent.
