In order to evaluate the fatigue performance and potential application prospects of a certain type of titanium alloy K-TIG welded joint for marine equipment, this study conducted high cycle fatigue tests and fatigue life prediction models research on titanium alloy welded joints with docking form based on the Basquin formula theoretical method and statistical P-S-N probability analysis method. Research results show that the yield and tensile strengths of the titanium alloy welded joint used in marine equipment are 941 MPa and 985 MPa, respectively, with a yield to strength ratio exceeding 0.95 and low plasticity. The high cycle fatigue strength of titanium alloy welded joints expressed as maximum stress under the condition of stress ratio R = 0.1 is 297 MPa, and the ratio to tensile strength (fatigue ratio) is only 0.3. Characterization of fatigue fracture characteristics using electron scanning microscopy indicates that fatigue cracks originate at the weld toe of the welded joint, fatigue striations appear in the fatigue crack propagation zone, with a large number of ductile dimples in the instantaneous fracture zone. The median curves of maximum stress, stress amplitude, maximum load, and fatigue life of welded joints were obtained based on the Basquin formula. Meanwhile, P-S-N fatigue assessment models were provided under different survival rate conditions. The research in this article has reference value for the service safety assessment of marine equipment structures.
