Small Crack Behavior and the Prediction of Fatigue Life
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: It is becoming increasingly evident that an understanding of incipient microcracking and growth of small cracks is essential to the development of improved predictions of the fatigue life of ...
Model for the Effect of Fiber Bridging on the Fracture Resistance of Reinforced-Carbon-Carbon
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A micromechanical methodology has been developed for analyzing fiber bridging and resistance-curve behavior in reinforced-carbon-carbon (RCC) panels with a 3D composite architecture and a SiC surface ...
Analysis of Corrosion Fatigue Crack Growth in Welded Tubular Joints
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An improved fracture mechanics model for fatigue crack growth in welded tubular joints is developed. Primary improvements include the use of a wide-ranged equation for the fatigue crack growth ...
Fatigue Crack Growth Thresholds of Deflected Mixed-Mode Cracks in PWA1484
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The fatigue crack growth (FCG) behavior of PWA1484 single crystals was characterized in air under mixed-mode loading at 593°C as a function of crystallographic orientation using an asymmetric ...
Probabilistic Treatment of Crack Nucleation and Growth for Gas Turbine Engine Materials
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The empirical models commonly used for probabilistic life prediction do not provide adequate treatment of the physical parameters that characterize fatigue damage development. For these models, ...
