Such cracks initiate at structural discontinuities such as holes, materialdefects, or other abrupt changes in configuration and may propagate to f

13、ailure under oper-ating stress levels. In designing against these failures, the designer must be able to pre-dict the effects of crack size and shape on structural stren_h. Linear elastic fracturemechanics (LEFM), which utilizes the concept of elastic stress-intensity factors, has beenused to correl

14、ate fracture data and to predict failure for cracked plates and structuralcomponents when the crack-tip plastic deformations are constrained to small regions(plane-strain fracture (ref. 1). However, when plastic deformations near the crack tipare large, the elastic stress-intensity factor at failure

15、 KI, e varies with planar dimen-sions, such as crack size and specimen width. (See refs. 2to6.) To account for the vari-ation in KI, e with crack size and specimen width, the elastic-plastic-stress-strainbehavior at the crack tip must be considered.An equation which includes the effects of plastic d

The TPFC was applied to surface-cracked and through-cracked sheet andplate specimens subjected to tensile loading in reference 4 and to compact and notch-bendfracture specimens in reference 5.

The equation isKF _ KI, e (Sn _ ays) (1)fS n 11 - m/-)Su jFor the surface-crack and corner-crack specimens, Su is equal to _u, the ultimatet

30、ensile strength. (For other specimen types, Su may be greater than _u (ref. 6).)The fracture parameters K F and m are assumed to be constant for a given combina-tion of material thickness, temperature, and rate of loading. To obtain fracture constantsthat are representative for a given material and

31、test temperature, the nominal failurestress must be less than _ys, and the fracture data should all be from the same specimenthickness and from tests that encompass a wide range of specimen widths or crack lengths.Reference 4 shows how the fracture parameters are determined from a given set of frac-

32、ture data.Equation (1) was derived for Sn _ Crys, but reference 4 has shown that equation (1)closely approximates the failure stresses for surface-cracked specimens even when Sn4Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-was greater than Crys. T

33、herefore, for the present study of surface cracks and cornercracks at holes, equation (1) was also applied for Sn _ys.ELASTIC STRESS-INTENSITYFACTORSThe form of the elastic stress distribution near a crack tip that containsthe stress-intensity factor KI andthe square-root singularity is well known(r

34、ef. 2). (The deter-ruination of KI is the basis for linear elastic fracture mechanics.) The stress-intensityfactor is a function of load, configuration (specimentype), andthe size, shape,and locationof the crack. In general, the stress-intensity factor canbe expressedasKI,e = Sn _ F (2)for any Mode

35、I crack configuration where Sn is the nominal (net section) stress, c isthe initial crack length (defined in fig. 1), and F is the boundary correction factor. Theboundary correction factor accounts for the influence of various boundaries and crackshapes on stress intensity.Previous solutions for the

36、 elastic stress-intensity factors or the boundary correc-tion factors for a surface crack (refs. 11 to 13) and a corner crack at a hole (refs. 8 to 10and 14) either were restricted to limited ranges of crack shape and crack size or werepresented in graphical form. To eliminate some of the restrictio

37、ns and for ease of con:-putation, empirical equations which approximate the elastic stress-intensity factors forthese crack configurations are developed in the appendix and are compared with other the-oretical and experimental stress-intensity factors from the literature. The following sec-tions giv
