A protective insulated coating (PIC) on 304 stainless steel (SS) surfaces as an IGSCC mitigation method was developed and investigated in high temperature water under various water chemistry conditions by measuring the electrochemical corrosion potential (ECP) and flow-assisted corrosion (FAC) rate. The ECP results clearly demonstrate that the PIC layer restricted oxidant transport to the metal surface, and the ECP remained at <−230 mV (SHE) in 288°C containing high oxygen (O2) and no hydrogen (H2). In this paper, long term durability of PIC layer prepared by various coating methods will be discussed.

The distinctions in the description of the conditions of cracking of materials are revealed. For Griffith–Irwin cracks, fracture is determined by the magnitude of the stress-intensity factor at the crack tip; in the case of the new type of cracks, fracture occurs due to an increase in the stress concentrations up to singular concentrations.

AbstractIn the digital image correlation research of fatigue crack growth rate, the accuracy of the crack tip position determines the accuracy of the calculation of the stress intensity factor, thereby affecting the life prediction. This paper proposes a Gauss-Newton iteration method for solving the crack tip position. The conventional linear fitting method provides an iterative initial solution for this method, and the preconditioned conjugate gradient method is used to solve the ill-conditioned matrix. A noise-added artificial displacement field is used to verify the feasibility of the method, which shows that all parameters can be solved with satisfactory results. The actual stress intensity factor solution case shows that the stress intensity factor value obtained by the method in this paper is very close to the finite element result, and the relative error between the two is only − 0.621%; The Williams coefficient obtained by this method can also better define the contour of the plastic zone at the crack tip, and the maximum relative error with the test plastic zone area is − 11.29%. The relative error between the contour of the plastic zone defined by the conventional method and the area of the experimental plastic zone reached a maximum of 26.05%. The crack tip coordinates, stress intensity factors, and plastic zone contour changes in the loading and unloading phases are explored. The results show that the crack tip change during the loading process is faster than the change during the unloading process; the stress intensity factor during the unloading process under the same load condition is larger than that during the loading process; under the same load, the theoretical plastic zone during the unloading process is higher than that during the loading process.

Generalized Stress Intensity Factor

When a crack tip impinges upon a bi-material interface, the order of the stress singularity will be equal to, less than or greater than one-half. The generalized stress intensity factors have already been determined for some such configurations, including when a finite-length crack is perpendicular to the interface. However, for these non-square-root singular stresses, the determination of the conditions for crack growth are not well established. In this investigation, the critical value of the generalized stress intensity factor for tensile loading is related to the work of adhesion by using a cohesive zone model in an asymptotic analysis of the separation near the crack tip. It is found that the critical value of the generalized stress intensity factor depends upon the maximum stress of the cohesive zone model, as well as on the Dundurs parameters ( α and β ). As expected this dependence on the cohesive stress vanishes as the material contrast is reduced, in which case the order of the singularity approaches one-half.

The KIII-stress intensity factor in an edge-cracked plate submitted to antiplane shear may be evaluated by the reflected caustic created around the crack tip, provided that a purely elastic behavior exists at the crack tip [1]. For a work-hardening, elastic-plastic material, when stresses at the vicinity of the crack tip exceed the yield limit of the material, the new shape of caustic differs substantially from the corresponding shape of the elastic solution. In this paper the shape and size of the caustics created at the tip of the crack, when small-scale yielding is established in the vicinity of the crack tip, were studied, based on a closed-form solution introduced by Rice [2]. The plastic stress intensity factor may be evaluated from the dimensions of the plastic caustic. Experimental evidence with cracked plates made of opaque materials, like steel, corroborated the results of the theory.
