Boundary selectivity of crack paths in corrosion fatigue of stainless steel [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Stress corrosion and corrosion fatigue cracks are frequently very branched and there have been extensive attempts to define the characteristics of crack-stopping features. EBSD has been used to examine the full length (~8mm) of a corrosion fatigue crack

Fatigue of friction stir welded 2024-T351 aluminium alloy

open access: yes, 2002
Fatigue failure characteristics of friction stir welds in 13mm gauge 2024-T351 plate have been assessed. Failure occurred from either the weld region (nugget/flow arm) or from the material immediately surrounding the weld.

Fatigue crack growth in a unidirectional SCS-6/Ti-15-3 composite [PDF]

open access: yes
An investigation was conducted to characterize and model the fatigue crack growth (FCG) behavior of a SCS-6/Ti-15-3 metal matrix composite. Part of the study was conducted using a fatigue loading stage mounted inside a scanning electron microscope (SEM).

Through-the-thickness fatigue crack closure behavior in an aluminum alloy [PDF]

open access: yes
The variation in fatigue crack closure behavior across the thickness of aluminum alloy specimens was investigated. The specimen geometries examined were the middle crack tension M(T) and compact tension C(T).

A comparison of fatigue life prediction methodologies for rotorcraft [PDF]

open access: yes
Because of the current U.S. Army requirement that all new rotorcraft be designed to a 'six nines' reliability on fatigue life, this study was undertaken to assess the accuracy of the current safe life philosophy using the nominal stress Palmgrem-Miner ...

Short crack initiation and growth at 600 °C in notched specimens of Inconel718

open access: yes, 2003
The natural initiation and growth of short cracks in Inconel®718 U-notch specimens has been studied at 600 °C in air. U notches were introduced through broaching, and hardness traces and optical microscopy on cross-sections through the U notch broaching ...

Modeling of crack bridging in a unidirectional metal matrix composite [PDF]

open access: yes
The effective fatigue crack driving force and crack opening profiles were determined analytically for fatigue tested unidirectional composite specimens exhibiting fiber bridging. The crack closure pressure due to bridging was modeled using two approaches;

Study of the Intrinsic Factors Determining the Near-Threshold Fatigue Crack Propagation Behavior of a High-Strength Titanium Alloy

open access: yesMetals
The resistance to near-threshold fatigue crack growth and its correlation with the microstructure of the Ti-5Al-3Mo-3V-2Zr-2Cr-1Nb-1Fe alloy were investigated.

Multiaxial fatigue crack path prediction using critical plane concept

open access: yesFracture and Structural Integrity, 2015
Prediction of fatigue crack orientation can be an essential step for estimating fatigue crack path. Critical plane concept is widely used due to its physical basis that fatigue failure is associated with certain plane(s).

Experimental Study on Fatigue Crack Detection of Marine Riser Based on Magnetic Dipole

open access: yesShiyou jixie, 2019
To obtain the fatigue crack length of the riser and determine its fatigue damage state, the magnetic memory signals of the X80 pipeline steel in the fatigue crack initiation, propagation and fracture stages are detected by metal magnetic memory detection.
