Design of Ultrasonic Fatigue Specimen of MB8 Wrought Magnesium Alloy by Analytic Method

Abstract

Ultrasonic fatigue specimen of MB8 wrought magnesium alloy was designed by calculation. In order to reduce the vibration amplitude, heat and pressure of the cooling system and also to protect the phase change, the sample was designed into variable cross-section. Based on the vibration displacement equation, boundary condition and displacement continuity condition, the relationship between the resonant length and other dimensions of the sample was derived. A series of size of ultrasonic fatigue specimens was calculated, which provided reference for the research of ultrasonic fatigue test of magnesium alloy. The results show that the resonance length decreases with the increase of the length of transition section, and the arc transition radius increases with the increase of the length of arc transition section.With the decrease of the length of arc transition section, Cs and M decreases for the specimen without uniform cross section in middle. With the decrease of the length of uniform cross section in the middle, Cs and M decreased for the specimen with uniform cross section in the middle.
