Numerous engineering structures operate under the presence of residual stresses resulting from welding or other manufacturing processes. In the present work, the effect of typical residual stress fields on stress intensity factors and crack propagation angle of cracks developing into the residual st

β¦ Synopsis
When there is residual stress in a material, stress intensity factor (SIF) in liner elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM) approach and Jintegral in elastic-plastic fracture mechanics (EPFM) approach have not constant values and are path dependent parameters. In this paper, we used the modified relations for them that take into account the effects of the residual stress. These relations have constant values in existing of residual stress and are independent of the path. In this study, we investigated a butt welded plate with through thickness crack perpendicular to the weld path. The SIF and J-integral were numerically calculated for applied and residual stresses. Results have a good agreement with theoretical values obtained by weight function method. Also it was shown that the modified SIF and J-integral can be used as fracture parameters to obtain other properties of fractured plates and structures.
