Absbwt-A simple procedure for calculating the fatigue crack propagation lifetimes of surface-initiated part-through cracks in bending is discussed and agreement is obtained with previously reported experimental data. It is shown that a realistic fatigue analysis of these cracks must include an expli

โฆ Synopsis
Different methods of prediction of the aspect ratio variability of growing surface fatigue cracks in tension plates are compared with experimental data. The objective is to identify the most accurate method. The comparison is based on a quantitative criterion as well as on statistical examination of the level of agreement with the data. Fifty-eight cracks are analysed. The total number of data points is 450 taken from 20 references. The solutions evaluated include theoretical as well as empirical formulas. The comparison shows that it is possible to predict the aspect ratio variability with standard deviation <0.070.

Cyclic growth rate of a surface crack is complicated by the three dimensional stress field around the crack and also by an interaction expected between the growth rate at every position on the contour. An analysis, based on the total energy around a smfoce crack, derived a correlation between strain
Abstr&-There is a dramatic change in the shape of the semi-elIiptiad surface cracks, growing due to combined cyclic bending and tensile loading of plam. It is possibk to predict the change of aspect ratio (o/c) during the propagation of the crack. The growing cracks change their shapes such that the
