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 ...

A numerical study of the effect of single overloads on plasticity induced crack closure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In this work, the effect of single overloads on plasticity induced crack closure is studied. An elastic-plastic finite element model was developed and the crack opening level was calculated from the contact forces along the crack flank.

Effect of compressive loads on plasticity induced crack closure [PDF]

open access: yesTheoretical and Applied Fracture Mechanics, 2015
Abstract Compressive stresses play an important role on tension–compression fatigue which can be attributed to plasticity induced crack closure (PICC). The objective here is to study numerically the effect of compressive stresses on PICC and to discuss the applicability of PICC to explain the effect of negative stress ratios on fatigue crack growth ...

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.
