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.

A fracture mechanics and fractographic study was conducted on creep and fatigue crack propagation of a 304 stainless steel under constant and repeated tensile stress at a temperature of 650°C. Linear elastic fracture mechanics could be applied to the test data fairly successfully in spite of the fact that the tests were conducted under creep conditions. A comparison with data in a literature indicated that this is not true for bending-type specimens such as the compact tension specimen because of redistribution of bending stress due to creep, and therefore a specimen geometry which avoids bending stress is preferred for creep crack testing. Under repeated stress, the crack generally started as a transgranular fatigue crack and changed to an intergranular creep crack at some length of the crack. The transition point moved to a later stage of crack propagation as the period of repeated stress increased. This transition phenomenon could be explained by assuming that the two crack propagation processes, the transgranular fatigue crack and the intergranular creep crack, are possible under repeated stress condition and that the one with the higher rate actually occurs.

First, tensile creep curve and creep propagation tests are conducted for austenitic stainless steel 0Cr18Ni9, i.e. 304 stainless steel at 550°C. The corresponding time hardening creep law is given for stresses ranging from 240 to 320 Mpa and the creep crack propagation length under a tension load of 10kN is measured by using QUESTAR long focus microscope system. Second, with the commercial finite element (FE) code ANSYS, the critical crack tip opening displacement (CTOD) is considered as crack propagation criterion to simulate the creep crack growth in the standard compact tension (CT) specimen. The FE predictions of the creep crack length in the primary and secondary stages are found to agree reasonably with the experimental results. The maximum computational error between the predictions and the experiment results is within 10%. Hence, the critical CTOD is a feasible criterion for crack growth simulations at elevated temperatures.
