โฆ Synopsis
Crack propagation experiments were performed on a mild steel side edge notched specimen for various load ranges and stress ratios at constant maximum loads. The life of the specimen increased as the load ratio increased. The crack growth data were analysed in terms of AKeff as a function of stress ratio R. Good results were determined for U = 0.7 + 0.15R(2 + R) in both cases. Two crack growth rate equations were also developed. --Fmax,] ~, 0"ma x U effective stress range ratio UTS ultimate tensile strength W width of the specimen O' ma x maximum stress of load cycle O' mi n minimum stress of load cycle a~ crack closing stress Crop crack opening stress ao ultimate stress.

## Abstract An experimental study of fatigue crack growth in dentin was conducted, and the influence of stress ratio (__R__) on the crack growth rate and mechanisms of cyclic extension were examined. Double Cantilever Beam (DCB) fatigue specimens were sectioned from bovine molars and then subjected
Centrally cracked specimens of JIS SM58Q and I-IT80 steels were fatigued. The fatigue crack growth rates, da/dn, and the stress intensity threshold levels, AK,, were measured over the range of stress ratio, R, from -1 to 0.8 by the use of an automatic method of continuously decreasing stress intensi
A study of the effect of load ratio, R, on the low crack growth rates and the threshold stress conditions exhibited by five medium carbon steels has been conducted. It was found that decreased values of R retarded crack growth to an increasing degree as a defined threshold for crack growth was appro
The results of an experimental study designed to determine the temperature dependence of salt water-inhanced fatigue crack growth are presented in this paper. It was found that the rate of crack-growth is constant over an extended range of crack-tip intensity. The activation energy calculated from s
Crack growth rate and crack closure during fatigue of type 304 stainless steel are measured with an optical microscope and television camera. Based on the crack closure data an effective stress intensity range AKFR is calculated. The da/da vs A&-curves indicate that crack closure could account for t
