Critical Damage

Based on low cycle fatigue critical damage, a numerical procedure for predicting stable fatigue crack propagation behavior of materials and structures was developed, which was named as LFF (LCF: Low Cycle Fatigue + FCP: Fatigue Crack Propagation + FEA: Finite Element Analysis) in this work. In the LFF method, stress and strain amplitude of nodes located at the plastic zone in the crack growing direction and fatigue damage of these nodes were firstly computed from a finite element code ANSYS. Then, by assuming a discontinuous step of propagation in the process of fatigue crack propagation, the stable fatigue crack propagation behavior of materials and structures could be estimated. Experiments on low cycle fatigue and fatigue crack propagation for Cr2Ni2MoV, TA12 and TC4 alloys were employed to certificate the applicability and validity of the LFF method. The results show that the LFF method is suitable for the estimation of stable fatigue crack propagation of a CT specimen with a straight crack under mode Ⅰloading and with a slant crack under mixed mode Ⅰ and Ⅱ loading.

Crack Propagation Behavior

Fatigue crack propagation behavior under cyclic tensile or torsional loading with biaxial static loads has been investigated. Two different biaxial loading systems, i.e. cyclic tensile loading with static torsional load and cyclic torsional loading with static tensile load, were employed to thin-walled tubular specimens. The crack propagation was measured by two crack gages mounted near the notch and crack opening level was measured by unloading compliance method. The directions of the fatigue crack propagated under respective biaxial loading conditions were examined and the growth rates were evaluated by using several cyclic parameters, including equivalent stress intensity factor range, Keff, crack tip opening displacement range, CTD, minimum strain energy density factor range, Smin. Furthermore, the growth rates were evaluated by effective cyclic parameters considering crack closure. It was found that the biaxial static stress superimposed on the cyclic tensile or torsional loading tests has no influence on the propagation directions of the cracks. Furthermore, it was shown that the fatigue crack growth rates under biaixial faigue loading were well expressed by using the cyclic fatigue parameters, Keq,eff, CTDeff, Smin,eff considering crack closure effect.
