    Notes: Abstract— The influence of age-hardening on the middle and low crack growth rates of a 7075 Al alloy is studied in vacuum. A transition in fracture surfaces morphology and crack growth curves is observed with the T 651 and T 7351 treatments in the near-threshold regime. Measurements of crack closure show its dependance on surfaces roughness and explain the lack of dependance of ΔKth with load ratio, except for the T 7351 alloy. An equation of crack growth rate to the fourth power of ΔKeff is in good agreement only with the crack propagation curves obtained for microstructure with an homogeneous deformation mode.

    Notes: Abstract— Fatigue crack growth measurements are usually made on standard specimens containing long cracks (∼10 mm) although in most practical situations, a large part of the fatigue life is spent with much shorter dimensions. The purpose of the present study is a comparison of crack growth behaviour for long cracks (∼13–16 mm) in CT specimens and smaller ones (∼0.3–0.5 mm) in four point bend specimens. Large effects are noticed indicating that, at a given stress intensity factor amplitude, the crack growth rate is significantly higher in specimens with short cracks. Mouth displacement measurements for both specimen configurations show that the crack closure phenomenon accounts for the observed effect. Crack closure is likely to be associated with fracture surface roughness as shown by partly machining the material left behind the crack tip in CT specimens.

    Notes: Abstract— The fatigue crack closure response was investigated for a surface crack in BS4360 50B structural steel, subjected to (1) constant amplitude loading and (2) constant amplitude loading interrupted by a single peak overload. A variety of compliance techniques was employed to determine closure behaviour. The crack mouth gauge measured the bulk, plane strain closure load, while the near tip strain gauge indicated the surface, plane stress closure response. For constant amplitude loading it was found that the surface regions of a surface crack are closed for a greater portion of the load cycle than the maximum depth point. A single peak overload caused different closure and growth rate transients at the surface of the thumbnail crack and at the maximum depth point. For growth rates above 10-6 mm/cycle, such behaviour agrees with the response of a through crack when subjected to constant amplitude loading, and a single peak overload.

    Notes: Abstract— Fatigue cracking of complex structure often involves several interacting cracks developing in a sequence of crack growth, arrest and reinitiation. A “combined” method of damage tolerance analysis is presented which employs fracture mechanics concepts to calculate crack growth and fatigue data from notched coupons with the appropriate notch radius for the crack initiation phase. The notched coupon data, plotted as peak elastic notch stress vs cycles to crack initiation, are shown to be applicable even when limited yielding occurs at the notch root. For several practical reasons it is recommended to select the initial crack size, ai, for the crack growth phase to be as large as possible, but in accord with two selection criteria. First, ai, must be within a notch-root region wherein the elastic stress distributions near a variety of notches are virtually identical. Secondly, ai must be small enough not to significantly influence the stress distributions for other cracks. The Combined Method is illustrated by means of an example involving fatigue crack growth along a widthwise row of holes in 305 mm wide test panels.

    Notes: Abstract— Sharply notched specimens of a structural low-carbon steel were fatigued under several ratios of the maximum to minimum loads. The growth behavior of a short fatigue crack near the notch tip was analyzed based on crack closure measurements. A fatigue crack first decelerates with increasing crack length, and then accelerates or becomes non-propagating depending on the applied stress. A similar deceleration is seen when the rate is correlated to the stress intensity range. The effective stress intensity range is a unique parameter in correlating the growth rate of a short crack for all the stress levels examined, and the relation is identical to that obtained for a long crack. By considering the increase in crack closure with crack length, a quantitative method is proposed for predicting the non-propagating crack length and the fatigue limit of notched specimens as a function of the applied stress and the notch geometry.

    Notes: Abstract— Segmented fitting of fatigue crack growth rate data is shown to give a more accurate prediction of fatigue life with less statistical scatter than by a single fitting using the straight line of a Paris-type plot. Changes in the slope of the log (da/dN) vs log ΔK data are seen to correlate well with changes in the mode and mechanism of fracture.

    Notes: Abstract— Strains very near a growing fatigue crack have been computed from measured material displacements, both for a very dry environment and for humid air. Significant differences in crack tip strains arid crack tip opening displacements occur in these environments, with crack tip deformation in water vapor evidencing less plasticity than the dry environment. These quantitative results are incorporated into a previously developed mathematical model which is based, in part, on dynamic observations of intermittent crack growth. Fractography is shown to support the concepts of intermittent crack advance and decreased crack tip plasticity due to environmental water vapor.

    Notes: Abstract— A model for fatigue threshold has been proposed based on the dislocation subgrain cell structure that evolves at the crack tip in steels during the fatigue deformation process. The stabilized subgrain cells that develop in the material act as impenetrable barriers to dislocations in slip band pile-ups that emanate from the fatigue crack tip. The blocking of these dislocations tends to limit crack growth that occurs by crack tip emission of dislocations, thereby leading ultimately to the fatigue threshold condition. The grain size effect on threshold is deduced to be an indirect effect as it is proposed that the subgrain cell size is the controlling substructural parameter at the threshold stress intensity level. The subgrain cell size is shown to be proportional to the one-third power of the initial grain size.

    Notes: Abstract— The fatigue strength of notched specimens of a rotor steel was examined under variable torsional loading which simulates turbine-generator oscillations resulting from the high speed reclosing of transmission-line circuit breakers. The local stress-strain response at a notch root was analysed using Neuber's rule and the resulting complex strain sequences applied to smooth specimens. Using the rain flow analysis and the linear summation rule, fatigue lives of the smooth specimens were successfully predicted from constant amplitude fatigue life data in association with the cyclic stress-strain curve obtained by the incremental step method. Experimental crack initiation lives for notched specimens subjected to variable torsional loading were in excellent agreement with the theoretical curves derived from results on smooth specimens. According to the view that fatigue damage is equated to crack length, the propagation life of a mode II crack along the notch root was predicted to be actually coincident with the life to crack initiation at the notch root denned in this study, i.e. the life at the stage of finding a continuous circumferential crack.

    Notes: Abstract— A crack-tip-zone interaction model for creep-fatigue crack growth is proposed. The basic details of the model are described. Experimental evidence in support of this model is presented. Existing data on creep-fatigue crack growth interaction agree qualitatively with the model. Some quantitative evidence for the model is presented and more is being developed in current work.

    Notes: Abstract— Fatigue crack propagation behaviour in a cast Mg-Al-Zn alloy was examined. The fatigue crack growth rate of the alloy under constant amplitude loading and the threshold resulting from a number of tests are given. Delayed retardation after the application of a single tension overload is explored in detail and described by using the model proposed by Matsuoka and Tanaka. From these observations, it may be seen that the Matsuoka model can be applied to the cast magnesium alloy as well as steels and aluminium alloys. Changes in the extent of retadation and the overload affected zone size with respect to the ratio of peak-to-baseline stress intensity factor range are discussed. Two phenomena, delayed arrest and acceleration in the later stages of retardation are reported.

    Notes: Abstract— Fatigue crack growth in the intermediate range can be described by the Paris law of linear elastic fracture mechanics. However, if gross plastic deformation is involved, the crack growth rate is often underestimated by LEFM. In the present study the increased crack growth rate due to plastic deformation is determined by using the J–R curve. This model was found to give very good results over a wide range of high crack growth rates for three different geometries of two different steels. A way to predict instability under controlled cyclic load is discussed and is proved to work well in practice. Instability under displacement control is also discussed.

    Notes: Abstract— A method of combining long term creep data with relatively short term mechanical behaviour to provide an estimate of creep-fatigue endurance is presented. It is proposed that the creep-fatigue effect in high temperature cyclic deformation is governed by a difference in strain rate around the cycle and the associated variation in ductility with strain rate.

    Notes: Abstract— The threshold value for fatigue crack growth of a medium carbon steel was increased when the test-environment was changed from air to an aggressive H2S-containing brine. This increase in fatique threshold was shown to be caused by corrosion product-induced crack closure. Further, the fatigue threshold and crack closure level were shown to be dependent on the growth rate history in approaching threshold. The differences in fatigue crack growth rate and fatigue threshold resulting from test procedure and growth rate history were significantly reduced by employing the effective stress intensity concept.

    Notes: Abstract— Four particularly pronounced beachmarks have been identified on the fracture surface of a cracked rotor. A correlation has been made between these beachmarks and events in the operational record. Fatigue crack growth calculations have been performed for a chordally cracked shaft subject to alternating self-weight bend stresses. The shaft dimensions and loading used correspond to the position of the crack in the rotor and growth rates were calculated over a range of crack depths spanning the positions of the major beachmarks. The results of the calculations agree with the beachmark correlation if allowance is made for the effect of the torsional loading of the shaft.

    Notes: Abstract— Crack closure in the near-crack-tip region has been considered to be an important contribution to the development of a crack-growth threshold for macroscopic cracks. Recent analytical work, however, has suggested that closure well back of the tip may be the controlling factor. In order to check on this possibility, material has been machined away far behind the crack tip in order to eliminate long-range closure. Removal of this material did not eliminate the threshold, but did lower the threshold level by approx. 10% for tests conducted on 6.3 mm-thick X7090-T6 powder metallurgy aluminum alloy.

    Notes: Abstract— Experimental studies aimed at understanding the fatigue process in metals and polymers have usually been performed under uniaxial stress. Only in the last two decades or so has much experimentation been carried out on fatigue crack propagation under biaxial stress. This paper reviews the available published data. Crack propagation behaviour under biaxial stress is dictated by 3 parameters: stress biaxiality itself, which is defined here as the ratio of the in-plane principal stresses, crack angle with respect to the applied principal stress directions and stress intensity factor range. Depending on the first two parameters, cracks may grow in Mode I, Mode II or Mixed-Mode. Crack growth data have been presented using these three divisions. Two short sections have been included on initiation and cyclic stress/strain behaviour under biaxial stress to emphasise the fact that crack growth cannot be fully understood without knowing something of them. The accumulated data do not lead to adequate conclusions on either the qualitative or quantitative behaviour of cracks subject to cyclic in-plane biaxial stress. Reasons for the confusion and even contradiction of independent results are put forward and some discussion given to the possible directions of future experimental work.

    Notes: Abstract— Evidence is presented that the cyclic stress intensity threshold for fatigue crack growth in A1 2219-T851 is associated with a critical maximum value of stress intensity, Kc. This relationship is discovered by measuring the local value of stress intensity at the crack tip which is less than the applied stress intensity because of fatigue induced compressive residual stresses in the plastic zone. Crack growth rates and values of the crack tip residual stress are measured as functions of load ratio. For local stress intensities greater than Kc, the growth rate follows a power-law relationship, increasing monotonically with δK. For local stress intensities below Kc, growth rates are also sensitive to the cyclic stress range, δσ. If the stress range is small, a threshold to growth, typical of long cracks, is seen. When the cracks are short and δσ exceeds a critical value, growth rates are a complex function of both δσ and δK. This behavior is attributed to the effect of δσ on the propagation of the crack front past obstacles such as grain boundaries.

    Notes: Abstract— Crack growth under cyclic loading has been studied by the finite element method. The calculation was made for plane stress conditions. The crack tip zone was modelled as a cohesive zone.The displacement of the free crack surface during unloading was found to be governed by the surrounding continuum and was independent of the details in the fracture zone. This means that crack closure upon unloading is directly related to the ultimate separation, of the cohesive zone, which in turn controls the residual plastic deformation left in the wake of the growing crack.If the distance over which closure takes place is rather small, closure may be very difficult to detect by the compliance technique.

    Notes: Abstract— Fatigue data required for estimates of cracked component lifetimes are conventionally obtained by cyclic loading of specimens manufactured to a specific geometry. Crack growth in the specimen results in an increase in the stress intensity factor range and crack growth curves are calculated from the variation of crack length with time. An environmental fatigue study of the effect of high pressure hydrogen on the low cycle fatigue of a medium strength steel has shown that, due to effects of elapsed time in the environment and effects of specimen size, in certain circumstances this procedure may not yield geometry-independent results which can be applied with confidence to cracked components. It is concluded that to obtain useful crack growth data in cases where fracture is influenced by diffusion or other strongly time dependent processes might require a modified approach to fracture mechanics testing procedures.

    Notes: Abstract— This study is concerned with the influence of a single-peak overload and the overload ratio on the subsequent rate of growth of a fatigue crack in steels. Retardation increases with increasing overload ratio.The crack opening load was also measured during all tests. It is shown that the Elber's crack closure concept is not able to explain the effect of overloads. The importance of the material yield stress was evaluated by testing steels of different strength. It seems that the residual stress state induced by the overload is the major factor causing retardation. Two models are analyzed.

    Notes: Abstract— The fatigue growth of short cracks in coarse grained IMI 685, having an aligned a microstructure, has been monitored using a two stage replication technique. Crack growth rates are presented in terms of the failure mechanism and compared with standard data obtained from through cracked, compact tension specimens. The maximum difference, of up to four orders of magnitude, between long and short crack growth rates is associated with separation along specific crystallographic planes resulting in a cleavage-like fracture appearance. The rate of short crack growth is also shown to be dependent on applied stress and a dwell at maximum load during the fatigue cycle.

    Notes: Abstract— Computer optimization techniques were applied to the strain range partitioning method for lifetime prediction under high temperature low cycle fatigue loading. The experimental data were evaluated using a simultaneous parameter fit determination of the baseline coefficients. This approach gave good predictions whereas a more conventional method did not work. The significance of the linear damage rule and the interaction damage rule is discussed on the basis of a generalised rule containing both as special cases. This formalism was applied to a ferritic steel and a cast nickelbase-super-alloy. In both cases a very good agreement between calculated and measured lifetimes was found.

    Notes: Abstract— An anisotropic form of the Von Mises yield criteria is presented which includes linear terms and therefore enables Bauschinger effects to be considered when constructing yield or loading surfaces.The coefficients representing the state of anisotropy are expressed in terms of the uni-axial and shear yield stress of the material. It is suggested that this form of the yield or loading surface can be used to determine the plastic strains for a range of multi-axial and cyclic plasticity problems and results are presented for the particular case of a tube subjected to cyclic plastic torsion with an axial stress.

    Notes: Abstract— The stress intensity factors at the tip of an edge crack in a round bar embedded in the tension zone of a concrete beam are found for several conditions of bond failure between the steel reinforcing bar and the concrete. A two-dimensional finite element technique is modified to represent the third dimension, the steel-concrete interface and debonding. The integrated form of the Paris crack growth law is used with the calculated stress intensity factors to compute the propagating fatigue lives for embedded bar and bar in air. The results indicate that embedded bars appear to have shorter fatigue propagation lives than bars in air if the crack initiators are less than 0.05 of the bar diameter, while for deeper crack initiators, the opposite is true. It has also been shown that the propagating fatigue life of the bar increases with the degree of bond.

    Notes: Abstract— Near threshold, mixed mode (I and II), fatigue crack growth occurs mainly by two mechanisms, coplanar (or shear) mode and branch (or tensile) mode. For a constant ratio of ΔKI/ΔKII the shear mode growth shows a self-arrest character and it would only start again when ΔKI and ΔKII are increased. Both shear crack growth and the early stages of tensile crack growth, are of a crystallographic nature; the fatigue crack proceeds along slip planes or grain boundaries. The appearance of the fracture surfaces suggest that the mechanism of crack extension is by developing slip band microcracks which join up to form a macrocrack. This process is thought to be assisted by the nature of the plastic deformation within the reversed plastic zone where high back stresses are set up by dislocation pile-ups against grain boundaries. The interaction of the crack tip stress field with that of the dislocation pile-ups leads to the formation of slip band microcracks and subsequent crack extension. The change from shear mode to tensile mode growth probably occurs when the maximum tensile stress and the microcrack density in the maximum tensile plane direction attain critical values.

    Notes: Abstract— This paper describes results of an experimental program conducted to determine the influence of deep side-grooves on fatigue crack retardation. The results indicate that side-grooves significantly reduce the delay in fatigue crack growth caused by single peak overloads. It is suggested that the decreased retardation is due to simulation of plane strain conditions in the “thin” test sections by the stress field at the root of the side-groove.

    Notes: Abstract— The growth of “large” and “small” cracks in 7075–T6 aluminum is characterized in moist air and dry nitrogen. It is found that in both environments, the small cracks grow faster than large ones, but unlike large cracks, which grow much faster in air than in nitrogen, the small cracks extend in each environment at about the same average rate. The absence of environmental effect is found to be only apparent, a change to an inherently slower mode of growth in air offsetting the crack-accelerating influence of moisture. Subsurface grain boundaries apparently retard microcrack growth in both environments. Possible rationales for the rapid growth of small cracks are discussed.

    Notes: Abstract— Fatigue thresholds and crack growth rates up to 10−4 mm cycle −1 have been measured in β processed IMI 685. The results obtained in laboratory air for material having an aligned α microstructure and a random basketweave microstructure displayed a pronounced load ratio dependence which increased with decreasing ΔK. This sensitivity to mean load was also apparent from the threshold results determined in a vacuum of 5 ± 10−6 torr.Fractographic observations, compliance measurements, pd output and crack path replication have indicated that contacts can be made between the fracture faces at a number of points behind the crack tip during the load cycle. These contacts wedge the crack open, thus preventing the stress intensity from falling to the value associated with the minimum applied load. A critical stress intensity, Kop, has been determined which relates to the crack being fully “open” and the results are reanalysed and discussed in terms of an effective stress intensity range, ΔKeff.
