A predictive fatigue life model for anodized 7050 aluminium alloy [PDF]
The objective of this study is to predict fatigue life of anodized 7050 aluminum alloy specimens. In the case of anodized 7050-T7451 alloy, fractographic observations of fatigue tested specimens showed that pickling pits were the predominant sites for ...

Variable amplitude fatigue loading can result in both accelerated and decelerated fatigue damage due to load interaction effects. Short fatigue cracks in particular exhibit a wide range of crack growth behavior due to multiple damage mechanisms ...

Development of a fretting-fatigue mapping concept: The effect of material properties and surface treatments [PDF]
Fretting-fatigue induced by combined localized cyclic contact motion and external bulk fatigue loadings may result in premature and dramatic failure of the contacting components.

In the mesoscale, the proportion of the physical short crack stage in the whole fatigue life is usually high. And the expansion rate of the physical short crack is faster than that of the long crack.

Research on the Behavior and Mechanism of Three-Dimensional Crack Growth under Uniaxial Loading
Most of the cracks in the rock masses are in a three-dimensional (3D) state, and it is always a hot topic to reveal the mechanical mechanism of 3D crack growth.

Fatigue crack growth in thin notched woven glass composites under tensile loading. Part I: experimental [PDF]
Helicopter blades are made of composite materials mainly loaded in fatigue and have normally relatively thin skins. A through-the-thickness crack could appear in these skins.

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

Influence of woven ply degradation on fatigue crack growth in thin notched composites under tensile loading [PDF]
This paper deals with the fatigue of the through the-thickness crack propagation in thin notched composite laminates made of two glass woven plies. It highlights the different crack growths between warp and weft directions of the woven ply.

LIFE SIMULATION OF MICROSCOPIC SHORT CRACK NUCLEATION AND EARLY PROPAGATION OF WELD TOE
For cross welded joints, the behavior of microscopic short crack nucleation and early propagation of the weld toe was studied. Using the Voronoi method, a representative element(RE) with a side length of 150μm at the weld toe was established.

On the transition of short cracks into long fatigue cracks in reactor pressure vessel steels
Short fatigue cracks, having dimension less than 1 mm, propagate at much faster rates (da/dN) even at lower stress intensity factor range (da/dN) as compared to the threshold stress intensity factor range obtained from long fatigue crack growth studies ...
