Subcritical Crack Growth and Its Relation to Predictive Analysis
نویسنده
چکیده
This talk will discuss the relationships between subcritical crack growth and the nature of the loading, the environment under which the loading takes place and the type of material tested, and how this data is used in predictive analysis. Loading conditions will include sustained loading as well as constant and variable amplitude cyclic loading. The environments will include vacuum as a baseline environment and both gaseous and liquid aggressive environments. The comparison between crack growth behavior in brittle and ductile materials will also be made. The data will be discussed from the viewpoint of reproducibility and reliability for use in predictive analysis.

Quantifying the Fracture Mechanics Properties of Rock for Fractured Reservoir Characterization
Natural fractures are important conduits for fluid-flow and can control the deformational behavior of rock. The accurate evaluation of natural fracture geometry in the subsurface is difficult because of the sampling problems inherent to wellbores and indirect investigation methods such as seismic. Because of these limitations in observational capability, predictive models are needed to provide ...
متن کاملCHARACTERIZATION OF TRANSVERSE CRACK AND CRACK GROWTH IN A RAILWAY RAIL
Abstract: To ensure the rail transportations safety, evaluation of fatigue behavior of the rail steel is necessary. High cycle fatigue behaviour of a rail steel was the subject of investigation in this research using fracture mechanics. Finite element method (FEM) was used for analyzing the distribution of the stresses on the rail, exerted by the external load. FEM analysis showed that the ...
متن کاملExperimental study of the effect of disorder on subcritical crack growth dynamics.
The growth dynamics of a single crack in a heterogeneous material under subcritical loading is an intermittent process, and many features of this dynamics have been shown to agree with simple models of thermally activated rupture. In order to better understand the role of material heterogeneities in this process, we study the subcritical propagation of a crack in a sheet of paper in the presenc...
