The effect of two singularity fields: the HRR solution and a modified form of Rice's solution for the anti-plane shear, on the fatigue crack propagation are investigated. A unified crack growth rate equation is derived involving mechanical, cyclic, fatigue properties as well as a length parameter as

β¦ Synopsis
In the low cycle fatigue fracture testing with KS (or JJS) SW steel, crack growth rate, AE count rate and J-integral range are measured to get empirical mlation~ps between crack growth rate and J-integral range, AE count rate and J-integral range as well as AE count rate and crack growth rate. All the relationships are shown to be linear on the log-log graphs. It is also shown that the linear relationships can be formulated by using Dunegan's assumption and elastic-plastic fracture mechanics along with the well-known relationships of crack growth rate and J-integral range. It is concluded that the differences between experimental and theoretical values are due to the problem of Dunegan's assumption.
