Ductile crack growth calculation method under excessive cyclic loading in a fitness for service rule has not been established even in Mode I. The authors simulated ductile crack growth behavior of CT specimens under cyclic loading executed in a committee of the Japan Welding Society. Sensitivity of the used stress-strain curves by monotonic or cyclic loading and the effect of the hardening rule were investigated. For evaluation of the crack growth rate under excessive cyclic loading, the parameter ΔJ was applied and compared with the rate of the JSME rules for FFS.
