Book Determination of Stress Intensity Factor Distributions for Interface Cracks in Incompressible  Dissimilar Materials

Download or read book Determination of Stress Intensity Factor Distributions for Interface Cracks in Incompressible Dissimilar Materials written by National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-07-02 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present study was undertaken in order to develop test methods and procedures for measuring the variation of the stress intensity factor through the thickness in bimaterial specimens containing cracks within and parallel to the bond line using the frozen stress photoelastic method. Since stress freezing materials are incompressible above critical temperature, and since thick plates are to be employed which tend to produce a state of plane strain near the crack tip, the interface near tip fracture equations reduce to the classic form for homogeneous materials. Moreover, zero thickness interfaces do not exist when materials are bonded together. It was decided early on that it would be important to insure a uniform straight and accurate crack tip region through the thickness of the body to reduce scatter in the SIF distribution through the thickness. It was also observed that rubberlike materials which were desired to be modeled exhibited significant tip blunting prior to crack extension and that some blunting of the tip would provide a more realistic model. It should be noted that, in normal stress freezing photoelastic work, it is considered good practice to avoid utilizing data near bond lines in photoelastic models due to the bond line stresses which inevitably develop when two parts are bonded together. Thus, the present study involves certain exploratory aspects in deviating from standard practice in stress freezing work. With the above ideas in mind, several different test methods were investigated and are described in the following sections and appendices. The geometry selected for the program was a thick, edge cracked specimen containing a bond line. Smith, C. W. Langley Research Center NAG1-1622...

Book Calculation of Stress Intensity Factors for Cracks in Structural and Mechanical Components Subjected to Complex Stress Fields

Download or read book Calculation of Stress Intensity Factors for Cracks in Structural and Mechanical Components Subjected to Complex Stress Fields written by Z. Wu and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 14 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the difficulties in using fracture mechanics is in determining stress intensity factors of cracked structural and mechanical components. The cracks are often subjected to complex stress fields induced by external loads and residual stresses resulting from the surface treatment. Both stress fields are characterized by non-uniform distributions, and handbook stress intensity factor solutions are seldom available in such cases. The method presented below is based on the generalized weight function technique enabling the stress intensity factors to be calculated for any Mode I loading applied to a planar semi-elliptical surface crack. The stress intensity factor can be determined at any point on the crack tip contour by using the general weight function. The calculation is carried out by integrating the product of the stress field and the weight function over the crack area.

Book Determination of Small Crack Stress Intensity Factors for an American Society for Testing Materials  ASTM  Middle Tension Test Specimen by Finite Element Method

Download or read book Determination of Small Crack Stress Intensity Factors for an American Society for Testing Materials ASTM Middle Tension Test Specimen by Finite Element Method written by Callum Wright and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Improved small-crack stress intensity factors are important for accurate fatigue crack growth prediction. This report presents accurate small-crack stress intensity factor distributions for the American Society for Testing Materials middle tension test specimen, derived in three dimensions utilising the advanced finite element method code StressCheck for a parametric study of a range of small crack sizes and shapes. This information was not readily available in reference books. The results have been presented in tabulated normalised form for future reference and clearly show the influence of the specimen notch on the variation of stress intensity factors.

Book Calculation of Stress Intensity Factors for Interface Cracks Under Mixed Mode Loading

Download or read book Calculation of Stress Intensity Factors for Interface Cracks Under Mixed Mode Loading written by RA. Naik and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 15 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A simple technique was developed using conventional finite element analysis to determine stress intensity factors (K1 and K2) for interface cracks under mixed-mode loading. This technique involves the calculation of crack-tip stresses using nonsingular finite elements. These stresses are then combined and used in a linear regression procedure to calculate K1 and K2. The technique was demonstrated by calculating K1 and K2 for three different bimaterial combinations.

Book Stress Intensity Factors in Two Bonded Elastic Layers Containing Cracks Perpendicular to and on the Interface  Part 1

Download or read book Stress Intensity Factors in Two Bonded Elastic Layers Containing Cracks Perpendicular to and on the Interface Part 1 written by National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-08-13 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The basic crack problem which is essential for the study of subcritical crack propagation and fracture of layered structural materials is considered. Because of the apparent analytical difficulties, the problem is idealized as one of plane strain or plane stress. An additional simplifying assumption is made by restricting the formulation of the problem to crack geometries and loading conditions which have a plane of symmetry perpendicular to the interface. The general problem is formulated in terms of a coupled system of four integral equations. For each relevant crack configuration of practical interest, the singular behavior of the solution near and at the ends and points of intersection of the cracks is investigated and the related characteristic equations are obtained. The edge crack terminating at and crossing the interface, the T-shaped crack consisting of a broken layer and a delamination crack, the cross-shaped crack which consists of a delamination crack intersecting a crack which is perpendicular to the interface, and a delamination crack initiating from a stress-free boundary of the bonded layers are some of the practical crack geometries considered.
