โœฆ Synopsis


The finite element method is used to predict creep crack growth from an initially semi-elliptical surface crack. Empirical correlations are used in conjunction with calculated fracture parameters and predictions are compared with results from a parallel experimental program. The material investigated is 316 stainless steel at 600ยฐC. The reference stress and stress intensity factor produced poor results. The C* contour integral gave a good prediction for crack growth, when a primary creep constitutive equation was used to model the behaviour. This model was the most appropriate for the nominal stresses and duration of the test.

## An initially semicircular crack loaded in Mode I tension with a material model similar to 316 SS at 600ยฐC has been simulated using the finite element method. Two techniques have been used to predict creep crack growth. One technique assumes that the rate of crack growth does not effect the crac

Three-dimensional, elastic and elastic-plastic finite element analysis of small surface cracks was performed. The elastic analysis is in good agreement with other solutions. For a round surface with a radius equal to six times the crack depth, the K at the surface is about 4% higher than the K for a
