Book excerpt: In this work, elastic-plastic fracture mechanics (EPFM) methods are extended to study the behavior of surface cracks. The material used is a tungsten inert gas (TIG) welded 2219-aluminum alloy, welded with 2319 weld wire. Calibration and a crack-growth test were performed. A multiple specimen R-curve technique was used. A group of specimens with the same initial crack geometry was tested to different deformation values. Several different groups were considered. Crack extension as a function of position along the crack front was determined and digitized into data files. A method to estimate values of the J integral as a function of position is presented. Local resistance curves were obtained. A parameter to characterize constraint is proposed. It is only based on the elastic solution for G. It is shown that the slopes of the resistance curves are uniquely related to the constraint parameter for all cases considered.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the symposium (on title) held in Sparks, Nevada, April 1988. Twenty-two peer-reviewed papers are divided into sections on models and experiments (monotonic loading), and fatigue crack growth. Areas addressed include the differences in constraint for 2-D through-thickness cracks and 3-D surface

Book excerpt: R-curves for surface cracks in Ti-6A1-4V titanium alloy were generated for the purpose of studying the resistance of the alloy to their subcritical growth under a monotonically increasing load typical of a proof test. Another purpose was to evaluate Ehret's compliance calibration for measuring the instantaneous size of a surface crack using the unloading slope of a load-versus-clip-gage-opening curve. Another purpose was to study "leak-before-burst" during sustained load and during subcritical crack growth under rising load.

This book was released on 1970 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Irwin stress intensity factor for surface cracks with crack depths less than half the plate thickness is extended to cases of relatively deep cracks by including the effect of the free surface opposite the crack. The stress intensity magnification factor is given as a function of applied load, crack length, crack depth, sheet thickness, yield strength, and Poisson's ratio. The combinations of these variables for which the plastic zone extends completely through the thickness a r e also predicted. The range of applicability of the analysis to surface-crack specimen data was investigated in terms of crack-depth-to-specimen-thickness ratio and crack depth-to-length ratio.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents recent advances related to the following two topics: how mechanical fields close to material or geometrical singularities such as cracks can be determined; how failure criteria can be established according to the singularity degrees related to these discontinuities. Concerning the determination of mechanical fields close to a crack tip, the first part of the book presents most of the traditional methods in order to classify them into two major categories. The first is based on the stress field, such as the Airy function, and the second resolves the problem from functions related to displacement fields. Following this, a new method based on the Hamiltonian system is presented in great detail. Local and energetic approaches to fracture are used in order to determine the fracture parameters such as stress intensity factor and energy release rate. The second part of the book describes methodologies to establish the critical fracture loads and the crack growth criteria. Singular fields for homogeneous and non-homogeneous problems near crack tips, v-notches, interfaces, etc. associated with the crack initiation and propagation laws in elastic and elastic-plastic media, allow us to determine the basis of failure criteria. Each phenomenon studied is dealt with according to its conceptual and theoretical modeling, to its use in the criteria of fracture resistance; and finally to its implementation in terms of feasibility and numerical application.
