Ah&met-The behavior of short fatigue cracks cannot be analysed by linear elastic methods because of large scale plasticity effects as well as a breakdown in the stress intensity factor correlation of fatigue crack growth rates for crack sizes less than a millimeter in length. In the present paper a
Cychc pre-stress increases subsequent fatigue crack growth rate in 2024-T3Sl ahrminum ahoy. This increase in growth rate, caused by the pre-stress, and the increased rate, caused by temper embrittlement as observed by Ritchie and Knott, cannot be explained by the crack tip blunting model alone. Each
