چکیده
Objective: To develop an experimental technique whereby fatigue properties of newly developed hlgher strength steels, as are critical to deep water structural concepts, can be more rapidly and efficiently evaluated, and to use the technique to determine the influence of steel composition and microstructure potential and stress ratio on crack propagation behavior of these steels in natural seawater.

Effect of Boundary Condition on Pre-Existing Crack Under Fatigue Loading
In this paper, the present investigation has been conducted keeping in mind some of the problems concerning the crack propagation direction and growth under constant loading in an inclined crack geometry. The present studies mainly focused on the development and modifications in the crack growth criterion to account the biaxial, shear loading and number of stress terms. Existing criteria for th...
متن کاملModeling of Corrosion-Fatigue Crack Growth Rate Based on Least Square Support Vector Machine Technique
Understanding crack growth behavior in engineering components subjected to cyclic fatigue loadings is necessary for design and maintenance purpose. Fatigue crack growth (FCG) rate strongly depends on the applied loading characteristics in a nonlinear manner, and when the mechanical loadings combine with environmental attacks, this dependency will be more complicated. Since, the experimental inv...
متن کاملThe Dc Electrical Potential Method for the Measumment of Fretting Cracks
As fretting fatigue cracks are initiated at an early stage of life, the fretting fracture process is dominated by the stable growth of cracks. Hence the measurement of crack length is very important. This paper demonstrates the suitability of the DC potential drop technique for the measurement of fretting cracks. A calibration has been established for monitoring crack growth in BS L65 copper al...
متن کاملPrediction of crack growth in a nickel-based superalloy under fatigue-oxidation conditions
Prediction of oxidation-assisted crack growth has been carried out for a nickel-based superalloy at elevated temperature based on finite element analyses of oxygen diffusion, coupled with viscoplastic deformation, near a fatigue crack tip. The material constitutive behaviour, implemented in the finite element code ABAQUS via a user-defined material subroutine (UMAT), was described by a unified ...
متن کاملCharacterization of a fracture specimen for crack growth in epoxy due to thermal fatigue
Finite element simulations are carried out to characterize a new fracture specimen, consisting of an outer circular epoxy ring bonded to an inner circular invar plate for accelerated thermal fatigue testing. Radial cracks are introduced in the epoxy ring. The growth of these radial cracks is correlated to the applied energy release rate G. We studied the dependence of G on the crack length, the...
