The influence of stress ratio R and yield strength uY on crack closure and fatigue crack growth were studied. Crack closure and crack growth experiments were performed on 6063-T6 and 606I-T6 Al-alloys of O%, 2%, 3% and 6% prestrains. Crack closure stresses were measured using a side edge measurement technique with a clip on displacement gauge. The gauge was placed across the side Edge Notch of the specimen. It was found that after crack initiation the crack closure stabilized. The closure load was however found to be function of R and oY. Fatigue crack growth rate is found to be dependent upon R, U and AK. A model Cl and da/dN has been developed.
