In order to evaluate fatigue lives without significant penalty, the analyses must assume a small initial crack. It has been reported in many studies, as noted in [1], that small cracks grow faster than large cracks at the same stress intensity factor range and that small cracks can grow at AK levels
Techniques of curve fitting, based upon an equation in the form of the four parameter Weibull Survivorship Function, are presented for the reduction of fatigue-crack propagation rate data obtained from a nuclear pressure vessel steel. The importance of data in the near threshold and the high crack p
