This paper deals with the effect of initial crack tip shape, plastic compressibility, and strain softening on near-tip stress-strain fields for a mode I crack subjected to fatigue loading under plane strain and small scale yielding. A finite strain-based

Effect of the morphology of the martensite-austenite phase on fracture of the weld heat affected zone in vanadium and niobium microalloyed steels [PDF]
In multipass welding, the intercritically reheated coarse grained heat affected zone demonstrates the worst toughness in welded joint, since it contains a high-carbon martensite with some retained austenite, known as M-A phase, which is brittle and ...

Elastic compliance of single-edge-notched tension SE(T) (or SENT) specimens [PDF]
There has been a trend recently to use specimen geometries for toughness measurement that are more representative of actual flaw geometries in service.

Study of SENT specimens with a tilted notch to evaluate ductile tearing in spiral welded pipeline applications [PDF]
There is an increasing interest for the use of spiral welded pipelines in strain based design applications. Environmentally imposed loads are able to plastically deform the pipelines, meaning that their structural response is of the utmost importance ...

The Effect of Notch Depth on CTOD Values in Fracture Tests of Structural Steel Elements
In elements of steel structures working at low temperatures, there is a risk of appearance of brittle fracture. This risk is reduced through the use of certified materials having guaranteed strength at a given temperature.

A new CTOD calculation method is investigated in this study, considering the FPZ and the effective Young’s modulus. The calculated CTOD values from four theoretical models are compared with the measured CTOD values from the three-point beam experiments ...

Sensitivity study of crack driving force predictions in heterogeneous welds using Vickers hardness maps [PDF]
Weld flaws often require an engineering critical assessment (ECA) to judge on the necessity for weld repair. ECA is a fracture mechanics based prediction of the integrity of welds under operating conditions.
