Pressure vessels and piping are commonly subjected to plastic deformation during manufacturing or installation. This pre-deformation history, usually called pre-strain, may have a significant influence on the resistance against fatigue crack growth of the material. Several studies have been performed to investigate the pre-strain effects on the pure mode I fatigue crack propagation, but less on mixed-mode (I+II) fatigue crack propagation conditions. The present study aims at investigating the effect of tensile plastic pre-strain on fatigue crack growth behavior (da/dN vs. ΔK) of the P355NL1 pressure vessel steel. For that purpose, fatigue crack propagation tests were conducted on specimens with two distinct degrees of pre-strain: 0% and 6%, under mixed mode (I+II) conditions using CTS specimens. Moreover, for comparison purposes, CT specimens were tested under pure mode I conditions for pre-strains of 0% and 3%. Contrary to the majority of previous studies, that applied plastic deformation directly on the machined specimen, in this work the pre-straining operation was carried out prior to the machining of the specimens with the objective to minimize residual stress effects and distortions. Results revealed that, for the P355NL1 steel, the tensile pre-strain increased fatigue crack initiation angle and reduced fatigue crack growth rates in the Paris region for mixed mode conditions. The pre-straining procedure had a clear impact on the Paris law constants, increasing the coefficient and decreasing the exponent. In the low ΔK region, results indicate that pre-strain causes a decrease in ΔKth.

Crack Growth Model

The fatigue initiation and non-self-similar fatigue crack growth behavior of three notched compact tension and shear specimens of 16MnR steel under mixed mode I/II loading were investigated. The plane-stress finite element model with the implemented Armstrong-Frederick type cyclic plasticity model was used to calculate the elastic-plastic stress-strain responses. A recently developed dynamic crack growth model was used to simulate the effects of loading history on the successive crack growth. With the outputted numerical results, a multiaxial fatigue damage criterion based on the critical plane was used to determine the location of fatigue initiation. A formula of fatigue crack growth rate, which is based on the postulation that the fatigue initiation and crack growth have the same damage mechanism, was then used to calculate the transient crack growth rate and determine the non-self-similar crack growth path. The predicted fatigue initiation position, crack path and crack growth rate are in excellent agreement with the experimental data.
