In recent published work a method was proposed to calculate fracture toughness during the crack-propagation phase of the loading of notched specimens. In this paper, it is proposed that the fracture toughness J can have a value that does not exceed the product of the ultimate work to failure of the
## Abstract Polyolefins, particularly polyethylene, are known to fail via crack initiation and crack propagation when exposed to multiaxial longβterm static stresses at elevated temperatures. Using concepts of linear elastic fracture mechanics, this article describes and discusses the effects of st
Stepwise fatigue crack propagation in a range of polyethylene resins, some of which are candidates for use in pipes for natural gas distribution, was studied. Examination of the effect of molding conditions on fatigue crack propagation in a pipe resin indicated that fast cooling under pressure produ
Crack nucleation and growth behavior of corrosion fatigue are investigated experimentally and theoretically for 200Β°C tempered AISI 4340 steel in 35% NaCl solution. The crack nucleation at notch roots is determined by the electrical potential method. The cycle for crack nucleation, N,, increases wit
## Abstract Analytical studies of the stresses on and within ultra high molecular weight polyethylene joint components suggest that damage modes associated with polyethylene fatigue failure are caused by a combination of surface and subsurface crack propagation. Fatigue crack propagation tests unde
