β¦ Synopsis
This note concerns the Mode I stress intensity factors at edge cracks in strips under pure bending. When these cracks penetrate three quarters or more of the width of the strip, expressions in standard handbooks can give rise to distinctly different results for K~. By applying an appropriately tested finite element procedure, guidance is provided in the selection of the correct value of K~ for such configurations.

The stress intensity factors along the crack front are calculated for straight-fronted edge cracks in bars with circular cross-section subjected to tension or bending loading. The results are deduced by means of a three-dimensional finite element analysis and the stress field singular behaviour in t
The problem of a beam containing a semi-elliptical surface crack and subjected to tension or bending loading is investigated. The stress-intensity factor along the crack front can be calculated assuming a model with finite strips arranged in series and parallel. Several cases are analysed varying th
A calculation procedure for plates with semi-elliptical surface cracks under tension and bending with aspect ratios of d c 5 0.2 and arbitrary relative crack depths d t is presented. For the computation an improved line spring model is used. K,-values are calculated along the crack contour. For the
Stress intensity factors for a long cylindrical crack in a long cylinder have been calculated using the energy release rate approach. The investigated loading cases include centrifugal forces (Mode I), radial surface forces (Mode I), forces parallel to the axis (Mode II), and twisting moments (Mode
