Experiments have been made to investigate the effect of mean stress on fatigue crack propagation in +in. (12.7mm) thick specimens of six aluminium alloys of high and low fracture toughness. The resuits are presented in terms of the stress intensity factor range, AK and the R value where R is the rat

The transient fatigue crack prorate resufting from the sudden change of the stress intensity factor amplitude or from the change of the stress cycle asymmetry or from the application of the single overload cycle was measured on carbon steel specimens. To simplify the con~tions and to increase the sc
A complex crack trajectory has been obtained by subsequently changing the orientation of a straight crack at the center of a thin circular disk of aluminum 2024-0 with respect to uniaxially applied constant amplitude fatigue loading. The propagation of the main crack has been performed by producing
A new model of fatigue crack propagation is proposed which takes the effect of cyclic stress ratio into account. In the model it is assumed tbat the fatigue cmck propagation rate is proportional to the absorbed hysterisis energy per stress cyck at the tip of a crsck. The energy is calctdated from st
From previous investigations of the mechanisms of both fracture and fatigue crack propagation, the static fracture model proposed by Lal and Weiss may be thought as reasonable for describing fatigue crack propagation in metals at both low and interm~iate stress intensity factor ranges AK. Recent pro
