Closure Effect of I + II Mixed-mode Crack for EA4T Axle Steel
The crack-closure effect is a crucial factor that affects the crack growth rate and should be considered in simulation analysis and testing. A mixed-mode I + II loading fatigue crack growth test was performed using EA4T axle steel specimens.

Simulation of crack closure effect on cracked beam vibrations
Vibrations of beams containing cracks are usually investigated by using open or breathing crack models. Neither one of these approaches considers the plasticity induced crack closure (PICC) phenomena which occurs in fatigue crack growth. In this study, PICC is integrated into the vibration analysis of a cracked beam.

Effect of compressive loads on plasticity induced crack closure [PDF]
Compressive stresses play an important role on tension-compression fatigue which can be attributed to plasticity induced crack closure (PICC). The objective here is to study numerically the effect of compressive stresses on PICC and to discuss the ...

A numerical study of the effect of single overloads on plasticity induced crack closure [PDF]
In this work, the effect of single overloads on plasticity induced crack closure is studied. An elastic-plastic finite element model was developed and the crack opening level was calculated from the contact forces along the crack flank.

Fatigue Crack Growth from Notches: A Numerical Analysis
A numerical approach based on plastic crack tip opening displacement (CTOD) was followed to study fatigue crack growth (FCG) from notches. The identification of fundamental mechanisms was made considering notched and unnotched models, with and without ...
