Fracture Toughness Data for Cast Irons

Fracture Toughness Data for Cast Irons

Fracture Toughness Data for Cast Irons

(OP)
Does anybody have any references to fracture toughness data for Ductile (Nodular) cast irons?
The only one I have been able to find so far is:
Bradley and Srinivasan, International Materials Review
Vol 35, No 3, 1990

Toby - thank you - I should have clarified that I have lots of data on austempered ductile iron and am searching for inforamtion on as-cast and "conventional" heat treated ductile iron, however several of the references look promising and I will check further.

RE: Fracture Toughness Data for Cast Irons

Some of the research workers in this area were GNJ Gilbert, Cox, (perhaps from Swansea University, BCIRA researchers, If you could get  books edited by H D Merchant, Lux, Minkoff etc on Metallurgy of cast irons you could get most of the references.

I have reprints of most of these, if you need and find it difficult to get any of the above references please let me know. I could consider sending them to you.

arunrao - do you have any data specific to annealed ductile iron?

RE: Fracture Toughness Data for Cast Irons

Yes there are works on annealed ductile iron with 100% ferritic matrix. Please give me a day's time to go to my office and refer as I have just returned after a tour to the middle east.

Also one of my friend, has worked  on fracture toughness properties of  sand cast and permanent molded castings. I shall try and give his email id too.
