The fatigue crack propagation process of specimen made from Q345R was monitored by acoustic emission (AE) equipment. The AE characteristic of the specimen generated during the fatigue crack propagation was obtained by parameter analysis method and wavelet transform method .The results show that the fatigue crack growth curve comprises four phases of the crack generation phase, the low-speed crack propagation phase, the high-speed crack propagation phase and the fracture phase, and the variation of signal parameters presents the similar tendency to the fatigue crack growth rate. The values of signal parameters, such as count, energy, and amplitude, are stable and low in the crack generation phase and low-speed crack propagation phase, and relatively unstable and high in the high-speed crack propagation phase and fracture phase. The type of signals is burst emission and the frequency ranges from 100kHz to 180kHz. From these correlations, it may be possible to predict the remaining service life of a pressure vessel from the results of short-term AE monitoring of crack propagation.

Abstract Fatigue crack growth can occur in elastomeric structures whenever cyclic loading is applied. In order to design robust products, sensitivity to fatigue crack growth must be investigated and minimized. The task has two basic components: (1) to define the material behavior through measurements showing how the crack growth rate depends on conditions that drive the crack, and (2) to compute the conditions experienced by the crack. Important features relevant to the analysis of structures include time-dependent aspects of rubber’s stress-strain behavior (as recently demonstrated via the dwell period effect observed by Harbour et al.), and strain induced crystallization. For the numerical representation, classical fracture mechanical concepts are reviewed and the novel material force approach is introduced. With the material force approach at hand, even dissipative effects of elastomeric materials can be investigated. These complex properties of fatigue crack behavior are illustrated in the context of tire durability simulations as an important field of application.
