โฆ Synopsis
From the study of the crack propagation data in fatigue, a parameter in the form P=mlogSK+C has been suggested, where the slope m and the intercept C are functions of the variables like stress ratio R, frequency w, and temperature T. Caae studies where data are available for various stress ratios have been made and a Master Curve connecting the crack propagation rate doldN and the parameter P has been obtained. Experimental data for various values of 8K and R have been found to agree well with the theoretical prediction.

number of stochastic models of fatigue crack growth under constant amplitude cyclic loading are assessed in the light of experimental data. Particular attention is paid to the predictive performance of the models under a change in the initial crack length and generally it is found that the models pr

Two fatigue models are compared: crack growth with constant crack tip radius and sharpening of crack tip with constant length of crack. By an experimental comparison of dynamic fatigue curves with crack growth measurements it was possible to refute the thesis according to which the fatigue processes
