Fracture toughness empirical correlation between SPT(Small Punch Test) with non-crack sample and standard fracture toughness test has been established in recent years. In order to compensate the imperfection of empirical correlation, such as absence theoretical basis, poor repeatability and universality, in this paper, an O-type pre-cracked sample was adopted to evaluate fracture toughness. The mechanical model of the sample is in compliance with plane strain condition in the direction of crack propagation. In this paper a determination procedure was studied and established, and the J-integral of steel Q345R was calculated using the procedure.

This paper describes an approach to identify the influence of mechanical properties of the materials under the condition of containing residual stress. The numerical method of simulating small punch test (SPT) is used to determine the material response under loading. The simulated material behavior of the specimen is based on the ductile elastoplastic damage theory of Gurson, Tvergaard and Needleman (GTN). The residual stress can be prefabricated on the specimen by loading and unloading. By comparing the original specimen with the specimen contains residual stress, the change of the mechanical properties of the materials can be studied. The results of simulation indicate that the material properties decrease with the increase of the residual stress.

In this article, different techniques to test notched small punch test samples in fracture conditions in aggressive environments are studied, based on the comparison of the micromechanisms at different rates. Pre-embrittled samples subsequently tested in air at rates conventionally employed (0.01 and 0.002 mm/s) are compared to embrittled ones tested in environment at the same rates (0.01 and 0.002 mm/s) and at a very slow rate (5E–5 mm/s). A set of samples tested in environment under a set of constant loads that produce very slow rates completes the experimental results. As a conclusion, it is recommended to test small punch test notched specimens in environment at very slow rates, of around E–6 mm/s, when characterizing in hydrogen embrittlement scenarios, in order to allow the material–environment interaction to govern the process.
