Book Investigation of Fatigue crack Growth Under Simple Variable amplitude Loading

Download or read book Investigation of Fatigue crack Growth Under Simple Variable amplitude Loading written by C. M. Hudson and published by . This book was released on 1970 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: VARIABLE-AMPLITUDE FATIGUE-CRACK-GROWTH TESTS WERE CONDUCTED ON SIMPLE SHEET SPECIMENS MADE OF 7075-T6 ALUMINUM ALLOY. THE NUMBERS AND THE AMPLITUDES OF THE HIGH-LOAD CYCLES APPLIED IN THESE TESTS WERE SYSTEMATICALLY VARIED TO STUDY THEIR EFFECTS ON SUBSEQUENT LOW-LOAD FATIGUE-CRACK GROWTH. THE HIGH-LOAD CYCLES CONSISTENTLY DELAYED SUBSEQUENT FATIGUE-CRACK GROWTH AT LOWER LOAD LEVELS. FOR A GIVEN LOW-LOAD LEVEL, THE HIGHER THE PRECEDING HIGH-LOAD LEVEL WAS, THE GREATER THE DELAY IN CRACK PROPAGATION. FURTHERMORE, THE DELAY IN CRACK GROWTH INCREASED WITH INCREASING NUMBERS OF HIGH-LOAD CYCLES UP TO A LIMIT. ONE HIGH-LOAD CYCLE CAUSED APPROXIMATELY ONE-FOURTH OF THE MAXIMUM DELAY, AND TEN HIGH-LOAD CYCLES CAUSED APPROXIMATELY ONE-HALF OF THE MAXIMUM DELAY. THESE DELAYS PROBABLY RESULTED FROM RESIDUAL COMPRESSIVE STRESSES GENERATED IN THE MATERIAL IMMEDIATELY AHEAD OF THE CRACK TIP DURING THE APPLICATION OF THE HIGH-LOAD CYCLES. ELECTRON FRACTOGRAPHIC STUDIES SHOWED THAT A GIVEN STRESS LEVEL, FATIGUE CRACKS PROPAGATED MORE SLOWLY IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE APPLICATION OF A HIGH-LOAD CYCLE THAN THEY DID IMMEDIATELY BEFORE ITS APPLICATION. THIS LOWER CRACK-GROWTH RATE IS CONSISTENT WITH THE DELAY IN CRACK GROWTH OBSERVED ON THE MACROSCOPIC LEVEL.

Book Fatigue of Structures and Materials

Download or read book Fatigue of Structures and Materials written by J. Schijve and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-12-16 with total page 627 pages. 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 The Fatigue Crack Growth Under Variable Amplitude Loading in Built up Structures

Download or read book The Fatigue Crack Growth Under Variable Amplitude Loading in Built up Structures written by Attilio Salvetti and published by . This book was released on 1979 with total page 87 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The object of this investigation is the development of a reliable procedure for evaluating the growth of a crack in a built-up structure under realistic loading conditions. To this end tests have been conducted on stiffened and unstiffened panels to monitor the growth of a crack both under constant and variable amplitude loads. The test data has been evaluated on the basis of a deep theoretical analysis which has allowed us to reach significant results on the following main topics: - influence of the fastener flexibility and stringer-sheet friction forces on fatigue crack propagation in stiffened panels, - reliability of existing methods for predicting the growth of a crack under loading conditions in plain sheets.

Book Fatigue Crack Growth Prediction Methods for Variable Amplitude Loading

Download or read book Fatigue Crack Growth Prediction Methods for Variable Amplitude Loading written by and published by . This book was released on 1988 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Considerable data on fatigue properties of materials under constant amplitude loading is available in the literature under the forms representative of the different aspects of the fatigue phenomenon. To employ these data, the design engineer must adapt it to the particular service conditions that he is concerned with. The stress vs. life or S-N curve is largely related to the fatigue initiation behaviour of materials and defines the endurance limit which is used for design. The strain-life curve is of more recent origin and relates the elastic and plastic strain amplitudes to the initiation life. Fatigue propagation data are presented on a crack growth rate vs. stress intensity factor range diagram.

Book Fatigue Crack Growth

Download or read book Fatigue Crack Growth written by Hans Albert Richard and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-06-13 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. 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 Fatigue Crack Growth Behavior of 7XXX Aluminum Alloys Under Simple Variable Amplitude Loading

Download or read book Fatigue Crack Growth Behavior of 7XXX Aluminum Alloys Under Simple Variable Amplitude Loading written by PE. Bretz and published by . This book was released on 1984 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This investigation examines the influence of temper and purity on the fatigue crack growth (FCG) behavior of four 7XXX aluminum alloys (7075-T6, 7075-T7, 7050-T6, 7050-T7) tested using a periodic single overload spectrum at low stresses. The loading sequence consists of a periodic single overload spike occurring once every 8000 constant amplitude cycles; the overload spike is 1.8 times the constant amplitude load peak. All tests have been performed in high humidity (>90% relative humidity) air at a frequency of 20 Hz and a constant amplitude load ratio of R = 0.33. The observed microstructural effects on transient (that is, spectrum) FCG behavior are contrasted with those for steady-state (constant load amplitude) fatigue performance.

Book Study of Probabilistic Fatigue Crack Growth and Associated Scatter Under Constant and Variable Amplitude Loading Spectrum

Download or read book Study of Probabilistic Fatigue Crack Growth and Associated Scatter Under Constant and Variable Amplitude Loading Spectrum written by Hamouda Ghonem and published by . This book was released on 1987 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of the program's second year research work was to examine the validity of the constant probability crack growth model while refining the transition intensity parameter. This work has been completed, thus leading to a crack growth rate equation with an explicit probability term. Furthermore, work extending the applicability of the model to variable loading required the determination of the delay-time associated with a single overload. An experimental test program was carried out on a titanium alloy using a potential drop technique to record crack length increments as function of overload characteristics. This program has been completed and results will be incorporated into the basic stochastic model.
