โฆ Synopsis
Microscopic examination of the secondary cracking process during surface crack growth in LY12-R aluminum alloy under tensile fatigue loading was employed. Secondary cracking behaviors in three special directions were compared with each other and correlated with the macroscopic behavior of the main crack. Two more explanatory mechanisms were suggested. A new parameter, mean secondary crack length, L, is used to help gain insight into secondary cracking process.

An experimental technique is developed whereby a personal computer is used to control a hydraulic servo-pulser testing machine and generate random loads for loading a fracture specimen. Thus giving a control over random load generation and hence random load history. This allows for the generation of
A probabilistic analysis of the fatigue crack growth, fatigue life and reliability of a structural or mechanical component is presented on the basis of fracture mechanics and theory of random processes. The material resistance to fatigue crack growth and the time-history of the stress are assumed to
Growth patterns of surface cracks in plates subjected to combined cyclic tension and bending are examined. Different methods of prediction of the aspect ratio variability of these surface cracks are compared with experimental data. The objective is to identify the most accurate method. The compariso
