A B S T R A C T Our theory of fatigue crack growth, which is based on the Bilby, Cottrell, and Swinden crack theory, is modified to take into account work hardening at fatigue crack tips. Iii this analysis stress rather than cumulative displacement or cumulative damage is the quantity whose critical

Abmtmct-In this paper a crack propagation model based on Tomkins concept (df/dN = Ae,, . o) has been developed using the theoretically developed cyclic plastic xone sixes. The crack propagation rates are found to be functions of stress intensity factor, Elber's efTective stress range ratio, cyclic y
Existing experimental data o~.~ fatigue crack growth are summarized. A fatigue crack growth model is proposed, based on the different crack tip geometries of a loaded and unloaded crack; the model leads to predictions of the rates of growth of fatigue cracks, in certain materials, comparable to thos
The theoretical study is advanced to describe quantitatively the crack propagation under cyclic loads. The main assumptions accepted are: (a) a crack grows by loading during every cycle, and (b) the specific dissipation energy is a material constant. The latter contains. the known concept by Irwin a
