โฆ Synopsis
A mechamcal model of fatigue crack propaganon was studied. It is hypothestzed that propagation is caused by cumulative damage due to strata cycling of the material at a crack tip. With Miner's cumulative damage law and Manson and CofI'm's strain cycle fatigue law, crack propagation rate of a material can be calculated. The calculated values are compared with data on 7075-T6 Al, 2024-T4 A1, AM 350 stainless steel, and 18 Ni maraging steel. The calculated and experimental values correlate reasonably well. The results indicate that fatigue crack propagation resistance of a material as related to its capability to sustain strain cycling, ~.e. its cyclic ductility.
