A new approach for the influence of residual stress on fatigue crack propagation
Many manufacturing processes can induce residual stresses in produced components. These residual stresses influence the mean stress during cyclic loading. The initial residual stresses induced during manufacturing change during fatigue damage. This paper

Analysis of crack propagation energy and effective unit hindering crack propagation
Impact tests were conducted on deposited metal of 690 MPa HSLA steel with inter-pass temperatures of 80 °C and 200 °C. The micro-structure and crack propagation path in the near fracture zone were observed using OM, SEM, EBSD and other analytical ...

Crack propagation in honeycomb cellular materials: a computational approach [PDF]
Computational models based on the finite element method and linear or nonlinear fracture mechanics are herein proposed to study the mechanical response of functionally designed cellular components. It is demonstrated that, via a suitable tailoring of the

Edge crack growth of mortar plate specimens under uniaxial loading tests
In this paper, a compression-to-tension conversion technique is developed by applying predominant mode I loading test, using a servo-controlled compression system. The technique is applied to thin mortar plate specimens of different widths that include a

Micro-mechanical insights into the dynamics of crack propagation in snow fracture experiments
Dry-snow slab avalanches result from crack propagation in a highly porous weak layer buried within a stratified and metastable snowpack. While our understanding of slab avalanche mechanisms improved with recent experimental and numerical advances ...

3D modelling of fatigue crack growth and life predictions using ANSYS
This study uses ANSYS mechanical APDL 19.2 to predict crack propagation trajectories and fatigue crack growth at constant amplitude loading. Mixed-mode fatigue life assessment is implemented by the Paris law model for different configuration of modified ...
