Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The prediction of service lifetime and the selection of alloys for maximum fatigue crack growth resistance are made complicated by the effect of prior loading histories on the rate of crack growth. Some research indicates that crack closure can be an important factor in accounting for this history effect. This paper presents a review of the lifetime on load-interaction effects on fatigue crack growth and indicates some of the future research needed to better understand the factors giving rise to history effects in the growth of long and short cracks.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fatigue of structures and materials covers a wide scope of different topics. The purpose of the present book is to explain these topics, to indicate how they can be analyzed, and how this can contribute to the designing of fatigue resistant structures and to prevent structural fatigue problems in service. Chapter 1 gives a general survey of the topic with brief comments on the signi?cance of the aspects involved. This serves as a kind of a program for the following chapters. The central issues in this book are predictions of fatigue properties and designing against fatigue. These objectives cannot be realized without a physical and mechanical understanding of all relevant conditions. In Chapter 2 the book starts with basic concepts of what happens in the material of a structure under cyclic loads. It illustrates the large number of variables which can affect fatigue properties and it provides the essential background knowledge for subsequent chapters. Different subjects are presented in the following main parts: • Basic chapters on fatigue properties and predictions (Chapters 2–8) • Load spectra and fatigue under variable-amplitude loading (Chapters 9–11) • Fatigue tests and scatter (Chapters 12 and 13) • Special fatigue conditions (Chapters 14–17) • Fatigue of joints and structures (Chapters 18–20) • Fiber-metal laminates (Chapter 21) Each chapter presents a discussion of a speci?c subject.

Book excerpt: This book offers a concise introduction to fatigue crack growth, based on practical examples. It discusses the essential concepts of fracture mechanics, fatigue crack growth under constant and variable amplitude loading and the determination of the fracture-mechanical material parameters. The book also introduces the analytical and numerical simulation of fatigue crack growth as well as crack initiation. It concludes with a detailed description of several practical case studies and some exercises. The target group includes graduate students, researchers at universities and practicing engineers.

Book excerpt: The present paper is concerned with the application of an analytical crack-closure model in the study of crack growth under various load histories. The model was based on a concept like the Dugdale model, but modified to leave plastically deformed material in the wake of the advancing crack tip.

This book was released on 1999 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fatigue crack growth tests under constant-amplitude and repeated two-step loadings were carried out on a (? + ?) Ti-6Al-4V alloy which has duplex structure made up of equiaxed primary ?-phase grains with a discontinuous fine ?-phase dispersed in the boundaries. It was found that fatigue crack grew along ?-phase grain boundaries and that the fracture surface was very rough in the low stress intensity region under constant-amplitude loading. On the other hand, in the high region, transgranular crack growth was observed and the fracture surface was relatively smooth. The crack opening point, Kop, was affected by the amplitude of low-level load, ?KL, under repeated two-step loadings where the high-level load amplitude was kept constant. Kop was found to be higher than that predicted by Kop -- Kmax relationship under constant-amplitude loading and the fracture surface was rougher in comparison with that under constant-amplitude loading which has the identical stress intensity range. It was concluded that the crack opening point was controlled by both plasticity-induced crack closure in terms ofKmax and roughness-induced crack closure resulted from rougher surface in ?KL.

This book was released on 2018-05-31 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Studies on the growth of small cracks have led to the observation that fatigue life of many engineering materials is primarily "crack growth" from micro-structural features, such as inclusion particles, voids, slip-bands or from manufacturing defects. This paper reviews the capabilities of a plasticity-induced crack-closure model to predict fatigue lives of metallic materials using "small-crack theory" under various loading conditions. Constraint factors, to account for three-dimensional effects, were selected to correlate large-crack growth rate data as a function of the effective stress-intensity factor range (delta-Keff) under constant-amplitude loading. Modifications to the delta-Keff-rate relations in the near-threshold regime were needed to fit measured small-crack growth rate behavior. The model was then used to calculate small-and large-crack growth rates, and to predict total fatigue lives, for notched and un-notched specimens under constant-amplitude and spectrum loading. Fatigue lives were predicted using crack-growth relations and micro-structural features like those that initiated cracks in the fatigue specimens for most of the materials analyzed. Results from the tests and analyses agreed well.Newman, J. C., Jr. and Phillips, E. P. and Everett, R.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A two-component crack growth model has been developed to treat fatigue crack growth under constant and variable amplitude loading. The model is based on a concept introduced by Paris which relates the crack growth to the instantaneous plastic zone size ahead of the crack-tip. This concept was applied to describe crack growth in the presence of cyclic and primary plastic flow. The model was formulated on an incremental basis in which a particular component of the model is integrated about a discrete portion of the load excursion. The model includes the effects of cyclic and monotonic crack growths and crack closure. The results for fatigue crack growth data reported in the literature for multiple overload and severe flight sequences are compared with the model predictions. The model was shown to describe accelerated crack growth behavior typically observed during these sequences. Acceleration effects occur in the presence of primary plastic flow which is related to the ductile tearing mechanism and is not dependent upon crack closure or other load-history effects. Moreover, the model describes the phenomenological variation of the acceleration effects over such sequences. The predicted crack growth agrees well with the experimental data.
