This paper analyzed the failure mode for crack in uniaxial compression according to the stress intensity factor, and obtain that the failure mode for crack in uniaxial compression is compression-shear. The wing crack was deformed, after the crack tip initiate. By analyzing the dimensionless stress intensity factor, we obtain that the failure mode for wing crack in uniaxial compression is tension-shear, and we obtain that the dimensionless stress intensity factor for wing crack decreased with inclined angle increased. The inclined crack propagation in uniaxial compression was numerically studied using rock failure process analysis code (rfpa), and obtain that one inclined crack in uniaxial compression formed mode I offset crack parallel to load direction in the end. The numerical results of failure mode are accordance with stress intensity factor.

A dynamic caustics test system was used, and different moving cracks were analysed to study the interaction between the crack growth rate, stress intensity factor, and curvature of the elliptical end of a moving crack under impact loading. Based on the linear elastic fracture mechanics theory, linearly fitting of the crack tip stress intensity factor and the elliptical curvature were employed to obtain the specific functional expressions. ABAQUS software was used to numerically simulate the moving crack fracture process passing through different elliptical curvatures. The crack tip stress intensity factor was calculated by the stress extrapolation method. The stress intensity factor obtained from the numerical calculation and the caustics test was consistent. The test and numerical simulation results showed that the direction of moving cracks entering and passing through the elliptical defects shows a certain regularity. As the ellipse curvature increased, the moving crack stress intensity factor passing through the ellipse gradually decreased, and the moving crack also passed easily through oval defects.

Results of experiments on crack-face impact are presented. The transient stress-intensity factor variation of a crack has been traced by the Stress-Intensity Factor Tracer (SIFT) [1] under time-stepwise uniform pressure loading of the crack faces. To see the effects of various waves generated by the loading, part of the crack faces was left free of traction within the distance l0 from the crack tip. The crack-face impact loading was produced by an electromagnetic force induced by a square pulse of an electric current flowing through a copper strip inserted in the saw-cut crack of a Homalite 100 plate specimen. The current flowed in opposite directions in the two portions of the copper strip, between the crack faces, causing them to repel each other. The short-time and the long-time behavior of the transient stress-intensity factor variation under the impact loading have been carefully investigated. Brittle dynamic initiation of crack extension and the stress-intensity variation of a running crack have been also examined. The experimental results have been compared with theoretical predictions based on Freund’s crack-face concentrated load solution [2]. The agreement between the theory and the experiment is excellent. In this study, the various waves generated by the loading are shown to play different roles in transmitting the load to the crack tip. In addition, confirmation is given that the SIFT is excellent in tracing the stress-intensity factor regardless of the crack-tip motion.

Characterisation of failure of components subjected to impact fatigue has received much interest in recent years. Critical stress intensity factor, i.e. fracture toughness, is a characteristic parameter for fracture conditions. Evaluation of this parameter is therefore of primary importance in the study of structures containing cracks. Due to its significance numerous research work have been carried out to provide dynamic stress intensity descriptions under cyclic, impulse and impact loading conditions. These methods are mainly based on numerical analyses and / or experimental techniques led to a range of approximate models. This paper firstly provides a review of fatigue failure due to impact loading and explains the principles of impact mechanics concepts including impact loading, stress wave equation and resulting stress distributions. Then, based on available experimental studies on developing and propagating cracks under impact loading, suggests a simple model leading to an approximate analytical solution for determination of dynamic stress intensity factor, kd under high strain rate loading. Calculated values based on the suggested solution compare well with the experimental data.

In this work,we tented to study the mixed mode of failure with two angles of inclination, of a treated steel, for that we tried to determine the parameters of failure as the stress intensity factor, tenacity and the critical energy in mixed mode of a rupture and see the criterion of rupture and seeing the effect of the angles evolution applied for all parameters. of in our close there is a fragile and less ductile rupture.

In this paper, the artificial neural network technique using a multi-layer perceptron feed forward scheme was used to model and predict the mode-I fracture behaviour of particulate polymer composites when subjected to impact loading. A neural network consisting of three-layers was employed to develop the network. Artificial neural network was constructed using six input parameters such as shear wave speed ( CS), density ( D), elastic modulus ( Ed), longitudinal wave speed ( CL), volume fraction ( Vf) and time ( t). The influence of input parameters on the output stress intensity factor and crack-initiation fracture toughness were found to be in the order of t >  CS >  D >  Ed >  CL >  Vf. The degree of accuracy of prediction was 92.7% for stress intensity factor. In this regard, artificial neural network can be used in the modelling and prediction of fracture behaviour of particulate polymer composites under impact loading.
