Fatigue crack growth rates under variable amplitude load spectra containing tensile underloads [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
An extensive research program was performed to investigate the load interaction effect of the combined action of small amplitude high R ratio cycles and large amplitude low R ratio underloads on the crack growth of large cracks.

Effect of rolling on fatigue crack growth rate of Wire and Arc Additive Manufacture (WAAM) processed Titanium [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Titanium (Ti) alloys have been commonly used in the aerospace industry, not only because they have a high strength-to-weight ratio (comparing to the steels) but also their satisfactory corrosion resistance.

A study of fatigue crack propagation in quenched and tempered and controlled rolled HSLA steels. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
A range of HSLA steels reflecting the two major processing routes, quench and tempering and controlled rolling, have been tested in fatigue to assess their potential wider application in the offshore Industry.

The effect of weld residual stresses and their re-distribution with crack growth during fatigue under constant amplitude loading [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In this work the evolution of the residual stresses in a MIG-welded 2024-T3 aluminium alloy M(T) specimen during in situ fatigue crack growth at constant load amplitude has been measured with neutron diffraction.

An inverse method for evaluating weld residual stresses via fatigue crack growth test data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
This paper presents an inverse method for calculating the thermal residual stresses in welded specimens via measured fatigue crack growth rates. Firstly, fracture-mechanics superposition law has been used to extract the stress intensity factor due to ...

Evaluation of the intrinsic crack growth rates of weld joints [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
A method is presented for evaluating weld intrinsic fatigue crack growth rate (FCGR) by excluding the influence of residual stresses. The method is potentially useful for predicting crack growth lives of structural components using measured FCGR data ...

Predicting fatigue crack growth rate in a welded butt joint: The role of effective R ratio in accounting for residual stress effect [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
A simple and efficient method is presented in this paper for predicting fatigue crack growth rate in welded butt joints. Three well-known empirical crack growth laws are employed using the material constants that were obtained from the base material ...

Micromechanisms of short fatigue crack growth in an Al-Si piston alloy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The short fatigue crack growth behaviour of a model cast aluminium piston alloy has been investigated. This has been achieved using a combination of fatigue crack replication methods at various intervals during fatigue testing and post-mortem analysis of
