Cast and HIPed textgamma-TiAl 4522XD is being developed for use in jet engine low pressure turbine blades, where temperature variations occur through the flight cycle. The effects of temperature variations on fatigue cracking were therefore examined in this study. It was found that fatigue crack growth rates were higher at 750C than 400C, but that $Delta K_mathrm{th}$ was also higher. Temperature excursions between 400 and 750C during fatigue crack growth resulted in retardation of the crack growth rate, both on heating and cooling. It was also found that for notches $0.6$~mm in length and smaller, initiation from the microstructure could instead be observed at stresses similar to the material failure stress; a microstructural initiation site exists. A change from trans- to mixed trans-, inter- and intra-lamellar cracking could be observed where the estimated size of the crack tip plastic zone exceeded the colony size.

The mechanism of AgCl-induced stress corrosion cracking of Ti-6246 was examined at SI{500}{megapascal} and SI{380}{celsius} for SI{24}{hour} exposures. SEM and STEM-EDX examination of a FIB-sectioned blister and crack showed that metallic Ag was form ed and migrated along the crack. TEM analysis also revealed the presence of ce{SnO2} and ce{Al2O3} corrosion products mixed into ce{TiO2}. The fracture surface has a transgranular nature with a brittle appearance in the primary $alpha$ phase. Long, straight and non-interacting dislocations were observed in a cleavage-fractured primary $alpha$ grain, with basal and pyramidal traces. This is consistent with a dislocation emission view of the the cracking mechanism.
As a room-temperature multiferroic, BiFeO3 has been intensively investigated for both magnetoelectric devices and non-volatile ferroelectric memory applications. Both magnetoelectric and ferroelectric memory devices have the same control knob: polari zation switching by an applied electric field. Due to the rhombohedral symmetry of BiFeO3, there are four ferroelastic variances and three different polarization switching events: (1) 71{deg} switching from r1- to r3+, (2) 109{deg} switching from r1- to r2+ (or r4+), and (3) 180o switching from r1- to r1+ (the superscript + and - stand for up and down polarization, respectively). Each switching path is coupled to a different reorientation of the BiFeO3 unit cell, and hence different coupling to the magnetic order as well as different magnitudes of switchable polarization. A degradation of the ferroelectric properties of BiFeO3 will result in losing controllability of magnetic order switching in magnetoelectric devices and capacity for information storage in ferroelectric memory devices. Especially, polarization fatigue will directly restrict the reliability of the actual devices. Hence it is important to understand the intrinsic fatigue behavior of each polarization switching path in BiFeO3 thin films. In this communication, we report polarization fatigue in BiFeO3 depending on switching path, and propose a fatigue model which will broaden our understanding of the fatigue phenomenon in low-symmetry materials.
We provide a complete quantitative explanation for the anisotropic thermal expansion of hcp Ti at low temperature. The observed negative thermal expansion along the c-axis is reproduced theoretically by means of a parameter free theory which involves both the electron and phonon contributions to the free energy. The thermal expansion of titanium is calculated and found to be negative along the c-axis for temperatures below $sim$ 170 K, in good agreement with observations. We have identified a saddle-point Van Hove singularity near the Fermi level as the main reason for the anisotropic thermal expansion in $alpha-$titanium.

Statistical distribution of switching times is a key information necessary to describe the dynamic response of a polycrystalline bulk ferroelectric to an applied electric field. The Inhomogeneous Field Mechanism (IFM) model offers a useful tool which allows extraction of this information from polarization switching measurements over a large time window. In this paper, the model was further developed to account for the presence of non-switchable regions in fatigued materials. Application of the IFM- analysis to bipolar electric cycling induced fatigue process of various lead-based and lead-free ferroelectric ceramics reveals different scenarios of property degradation. Insight is gained into different underlying fatigue mechanisms inherent to the investigated systems.

By using piezoelectric force microscopy and scanning Kelvin probe microscopy, we have investigated the domain evolution and space charge distribution in planar BiFeO3 capacitors with different electrodes. It is observed that charge injection at the f ilm/electrode interface leads to domain pinning and polarization fatigue in BiFeO3. Furthermore, the Schottky barrier at the interface is crucial for the charge injection process. Lowering the Schottky barrier by using low work function metals as the electrodes can also improve the fatigue property of the device, similar to what oxide electrodes can achieve.
