A Combined Numerical–Analytical Study for Notched Fatigue Crack Initiation Assessment in TRIP Steel: A Local Strain and a Fracture Mechanics Approach

Metals, 2023
In the fatigue design of metallic components using the safe-life approach, fatigue crack initiation as a development of slip systems at the nanoscale, followed by microstructurally short crack growth, is critical for the onset of structural failure.

Analysis of the Deceleration Methods of Fatigue Crack Growth Rates under Mode I Loading Type in Pearlitic Rail Steel

Metals, 2021
The paper presents a comparison of the results of the fatigue crack growth rate for raw rail steel, steel reinforced with composite material—CFRP—and also in the case of counteracting crack growth using the stop-hole technique, as well as with an ...

Characterization of Surface Fatigue Crack Nucleation and Microstructurally Small Crack Growth in High Strength Aluminum Alloys

Frontiers in Materials, 2021
It is well established that fatigue crack nucleation and small crack growth in high strength aluminum alloys are highly influenced by the surrounding microstructure including grain boundaries, texture, inclusion barriers, among other factors.

Modeling of creep-fatigue interaction effects on crack growth at elevated temperatures

MATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
The well-known load frequency effect on creep-fatigue crack growth is explained by the interactions between fatigue and creep loading and is quantified using the concept of plasticity-induced crack closure.

Effects of surface oxide layer on fatigue crack propagation properties of submicrometer-thick copper films

Nihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu
Fatigue failure involves fatigue crack initiation and propagation processes. In bulk metals, the fatigue crack initiation process is strongly affected by a dissimilar surface layer, while the fatigue crack propagation process is less affected.

Analysis of Fatigue Crack Propagation of an Orthotropic Bridge Deck Based on the Extended Finite Element Method

Advances in Civil Engineering, 2019
As one of the most fatigue-sensitive parts of an orthotropic steel bridge deck, the weld between the U-rib and the top deck is prone to fatigue cracking under the actions of the stress concentration, welding residual stress, and vehicle load.

Multiaxial fatigue crack path prediction using critical plane concept [PDF]

Fracture and Structural Integrity, 2016
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). However, recent investigations
