Some experimental observations of crack-tip mechanics with displacement data [PDF]

open access: yesFracture and Structural Integrity, 2015
In the past two decades, crack-tip mechanics has been increasingly studied with full-field techniques. Within these techniques, Digital Image Correlation (DIC) has been most widely used due to its many advantages, to extract important crack-tip ...

Blending hydrogen in existing natural gas pipelines: Integrity consequences from a fitness for service perspective

open access: yesJournal of Pipeline Science and Engineering, 2023
Blending hydrogen in existing natural gas pipelines compromises steel integrity because it increases fatigue crack growth, promotes subcritical cracking and decreases fracture toughness.

Crack-size and crack-orientation distributions of brittle materials.

open access: yesTRANSACTIONS OF THE JAPAN SOCIETY OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERS Series A, 1989
In this report, we derived a new theory by combining the previously obtained statistical theory fracture location with the multiaxial distribution function. Using this theory, we analysed not only 3 crack-size ditribution function but also the crack-orientation distribution. Both distribution function are considerably affected by the fracture criteria.

Fatigue Life Assessment and Reliability Analysis of Cope-Hole Details in Steel Bridges

open access: yesThe Baltic Journal of Road and Bridge Engineering, 2020
Cope-hole details are widely applied to steel bridges. However, the safety of steel bridges is influenced by the fatigue performance of welded details.

A fatigue crack quantification model for metallic structure based on strain monitoring data

open access: yesXibei Gongye Daxue Xuebao, 2023
Obtaining the real-time fatigue crack length of a metallic structure is the prerequisite of the fatigue life monitoring and residual life estimation for an aircraft.

Fractal scaling and crack-size effects on creep crack growth

open access: yesStrength, Fracture and Complexity, 2020
Scaling effects on the creep crack growth behaviour are investigated by analyzing the results of compact tension (CT) tests on different-sized notched steel specimens appearing in the literature. Creep crack growth rate data are correlated to the elastic stress-intensity factor in terms of a Paris-type law, da∕dt = C0Kq, where C0 turns out to be a ...

VIBROTHERMOGRAPHIC CRACK HEATING: A FUNCTION OF VIBRATION AND CRACK SIZE

open access: yesAIP Conference Proceedings, 2009
Vibrothermography is an inspection technique that detects cracks by observing vibration induced crack heating. Frictional crack heating in a vibrating specimen is directly linked to the resonant vibrational stress on the crack. In simple geometries we can measure the vibrational mode structure and intuit the dynamic vibrational stress field on the ...

On a kinked crack model to describe the influence of material microstructure on fatigue crack growth [PDF]

open access: yesFracture and Structural Integrity, 2013
Threshold condition and rate of fatigue crack growth in both short and long crack regime appear to be significantly affected by the degree of crack deflection.

Influences of crystal orientations and grain boundary on crack propagation behaviour at room temperature in a polycrystalline Ni-base superalloy

open access: yesNihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2018
Fatigue crack propagation in a polycrystalline Ni-base superalloy was experimentally investigated at room temperature. Fatigue crack propagation tests were conducted under a constant ΔK condition to clarify the effect of grains crystal orientation, grain
