On the basis of the successful results of our previous study on a J-integral approach to the creep crack propagation of steels, the applicability of the creep J-integral to the time dependent fatigue crack propagation in creep range was studied. A satisfactory correlation was obtained between crack propagation rate and creep J-integral, and the same correlation was found in creep crack propagation under constant load as well as two-step loading. It was also found that the cycle dependent fatigue crack propagation rate could be successfully correlated by the cyclic J-integral. The high crack propagation rate in large scale yielding fatigue may be in agreement with the straight line extrapolation on log-log plots of the linear elastic fatigue crack propagation rate versus cyclic J-integral data.

The cycle J integral formula for CT-specimens has been improved as follows Δ J = 2 B b a 1 • U + a 2 • Δ δ + 2 B b U e { -1.2025 a w + 0.6233 0.3 ⩽ a w ⩽ 0.53 -0.02 Sin ⁡ π 0.23 a w - 0.53 0.53 < a w < 0.95 This formula is applicable to the fatigue crack propagation range of 0.3 ≤a/w<0.95. In comparision with other formulae of cycle J integral, the application range of the above expression is enlarged and its precision is also increased to a certain extent.

The cycle J integral formula for CT specimens has been improved as follows: ΔJ=(2/Bb)(α1•U + α2•ΔP•Δδ) + (2/Bb)Ue−1.2025a/w + 0.6233 for 0.3≤a/w≤0.53; ΔJ=(2/Bb)(α1•U + α2•ΔP•Δδ) + (2/Bb)Ue−0.02 sin[(π/0.23)(a/w−0.53)] for 0.53<a/w<0.95. This formula is applicable to the fatigue crack propagation range of 0.3≤a/w<0.95. In comparison with other formulae of the cycle J integral, the application range of the above expression is enlarged and its accuracy is also increased to a certain extent.
