Experimental Investigation of Fatigue Crack Growth Behavior in Banded Structure of Pipeline Steel
The effect of a ferrite/mixed phase banded structure on the fatigue crack growth behavior of pipeline steel has been investigated in this work. Constant stress-controlled fatigue tests were carried out on unilateral notch specimens in the longitudinal ...

A three-dimensional multiscale model of intergranular hydrogen-assisted cracking [PDF]
We present a three-dimensional model of intergranular hydrogen-embrittlement (HE) that accounts for: (i) the degradation of grain-boundary strength that arises from hydrogen coverage; (ii) grain-boundary diffusion of hydrogen; and (iii) a continuum model

Predicting fatigue crack growth rate in a welded butt joint: The role of effective R ratio in accounting for residual stress effect [PDF]
A simple and efficient method is presented in this paper for predicting fatigue crack growth rate in welded butt joints. Three well-known empirical crack growth laws are employed using the material constants that were obtained from the base material ...
