Stress Intensity Factor Range

The fatigue crack growth (FCG) process is usually accessed through the stress intensity factor range, ΔK, which has some limitations. The cumulative plastic strain at the crack tip has provided results in good agreement with the experimental observations. Also, it allows understanding the crack tip phenomena leading to FCG. Plastic deformation inevitably leads to micro-porosity occurrence and damage accumulation, which can be evaluated with a damage model, such as Gurson–Tvergaard–Needleman (GTN). This study aims to access the influence of the GTN parameters, related to growth and nucleation of micro-voids, on the predicted crack growth rate. The results show the connection between the porosity values and the crack closure level. Although the effect of the porosity on the plastic strain, the predicted effect of the initial porosity on the predicted crack growth rate is small. The sensitivity analysis identified the nucleation amplitude and Tvergaard’s loss of strength parameter as the main factors, whose variation leads to larger changes in the crack growth rate.

Beryllium Copper

Some fatigue crack growth data have been obtained for age-hardened beryllium copper. The fatigue crack growth rate was found to be very dependent on the hardness and tensile mean stress. This dependence is believed to be associated with the intense residual stresses surrounding Preston-Guinier zones.
