Measurement and simulation of strain fields around crack tips under mixed-mode fatigue loading [PDF]

open access: yesFracture and Structural Integrity, 2015
For various configurations examined in a series of fatigue experiments on thin-walled tubes under tension and torsion, the experimental results – crack path, crack growth life, near crack tip deformations, and crack closure – are measured and compared to

A numerical study of non-linear crack tip parameters [PDF]

open access: yesFracture and Structural Integrity, 2015
Crack closure concept has been widely used to explain different issues of fatigue crack propagation. However, different authors have questioned the relevance of crack closure and have proposed alternative concepts. The main objective here is to check the

The Evaluation of Front Shapes of Through-the-Thickness Fatigue Cracks

open access: yesMetals, 2021
Fatigue failure of structural components due to cyclic loading is a major concern for engineers. Although metal fatigue is a relatively old subject, current methods for the evaluation of fatigue crack growth and fatigue lifetime have several limitations.

Novel Characterizations of Effective SIFs and Fatigue Crack Propagation Rate of Welded Rail Steel Using DIC

open access: yesMetals, 2023
The fatigue crack growth-rate test of rail head, waist, and bottom material for U71Mn welded rail was carried out. Digital image correlation (DIC) was used to capture the full-field displacement.

Simulation of Near-Tip Crack Behaviour and Its Correlation to Fatigue Crack Growth with a Modified Strip-Yield Model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
A modified strip-yield model has been developed to simulate the plasticity-induced crack closure under the constant amplitude (CA) and a single overload loading conditions.

Plasticity induced crack closure in adhesively bonded joints under fatigue loading [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The mean load of a cyclic loading has a large effect on fatigue crack growth rates in metallic materials and bonded joints. In metallic structures, this effect has been attributed to plasticity-induced crack closure, but little is known about the ...

An analytical model of plasticity induced crack closure

open access: yesProcedia Engineering, 2010
AbstractAccurate and non-conservative measurements of fatigue crack growth rate are essential when designing efficient structures to be subjected to cyclic loading. Crack closure is a main mechanism of fatigue crack propagation and must be included.

Experimental evaluation of CTOD in constant amplitude fatigue crack growth from crack tip displacement fields [PDF]

open access: yesFracture and Structural Integrity, 2017
In the current work an experimental study of the crack tip opening displacement (CTOD) is performed to evaluate the ability of this parameter to characterise fatigue crack growth.
