✦ Synopsis

The stress intensity factors for a thermal crack problem are computed directly from the crack tip singular field as it was embedded in a specialized crack-tip element. The method gives accurate results without modeling a very refined mesh near the crack tip and without evaluating additional line and/or area integrals for the "modified" path independent integrals as suggested by most current methods for thermoelastic cracks.

The effects of applied compressive stress on the crack tip parameters and their implications on fatigue crack growth have been studied. Four center-cracked panel specimens with different crack lengths are analysed using finite element method. The results show that under tension-compression loading t
