Abstract:
Analytical and experimental studies were performed to investigate the effect of rim thickness on gear tooth crack propagation. The goal was to determine whether cracks grew through gear teeth or through gear rims for various rim thicknesses. A finite element based computer program (FRANC, FRacture ANalysis Code) simulated gear tooth crack propagation. The analysis used principles of linear elastic fracture mechanics. Quarter-point, triangular elements were used at the crack tip to represent the stress singularity. The program had an automated crack propagation option in which cracks were grown

Abstract:
In this paper multiple fatigue cracks propagation are simulated in two-dimensional plates. Since re-meshing the cracked bodies in each increment of crack extension is a time-consuming and complicated procedure, numerical simulation of mixed-mode crack propagation with FEM is a difficulty. For this purpose, a FEM software is programmed and mesh refinement in each increment of crack is performed by Delaunay Refinement Algorithm. Using different refinement methods, complex boundaries such as multiple cracks and discontinuities which are closed together are easily refined by this algorithm. Crack

A fatigue model for the analysis of crack propagation in heterogeneous materials is developed.

Abstract:
The influence of surface roughness in crack face on the behavior of crack growth is studied. Numerical results derived from two kinds of mechanical models representing the macroscopic and microscopic asperity supposed to exist in the face of an initial crack are compared. In macro-asperity model, the influence of location and size of single-triangular asperity on the stress intensity factor is evaluated. In this model, it is found that the mode-I stress singularity appears in certain circumstances even under overall compression. In micro-asperity model, influence of friction coefficient on the

A new type of high strength and low cost bainitic steel with ultra-low carbon content and high Si content has been developed on the basis of Mn-series air-cooling bainitic steels. The tensile properties of YS>690MPa and the impact toughness of AKV>60J at-40°C were obtained by controlling the processing parameters. This was attributed to the formation of the grain boundary allotriomorphic ferrite (FGBA) and the granular bainite (GB) with different shape of M/A islands. The high strength due to the inter-lath lamellar M/A islands or retained austenite companying with high dislocated bainit

Crack defects make it difficult to predict the dynamic fracture of tunnel specimens under an impact load. To study the impact of the velocity and crack location on a roadway under dynamic load, specimens with tunnel-type voids were made using polymethyl methacrylate. The split-Hopkinson bar was used as the loading method, and a digital laser dynamic caustics system was used to observe the fracture process of the specimens. The dynamic fracture process was evaluated by the crack propagation velocity, displacement, and dynamic stress intensity factor. To predict and verify the test results, ABAQ

Abstract:
This study uses a dynamic caustic technique to study the crack propagation in a medium containing an unfilled joint under blasting. The results show that for the medium containing a vertical unfilled joint, the reflected dilatational wave from the joint tends to suppress both the K I d and the velocity of the opposite propagating crack. However, for the medium containing an oblique joint, the reflected wave from the joint increases K II d , and induces the opposite propagating crack deflect from its original path. Compared with the medium with a vertical joint, the wing cracks are more easy to

The effect of subcritical crack growth is nowadays intensively studied mainly in relation to the strength of ceramic materials.

The micro-crack behavior is significantly influenced by residual stresses developed in the LTCC due to different coefficients of thermal expansion of individual components.

Recent studies devoted to nanocrystalline (NC) materials have shown a deviation from the Hall–Petch law. Special GBs formed by Σ3 twins in face-centred cubic metals are also known to have a strong effect on the mechanical behaviour of these metals, in particular their work-hardening rate.

Abstract:
In the setting of antiplane linearized elasticity, we show the existence of quasistatic evolutions of cracks in brittle materials by using a vanishing viscosity approach, thus taking into account local minimization. The main feature of our model is that the path followed by the crack need not be prescribed a priori: indeed, it is found as the limit (in the sense of Hausdorff convergence) of curves obtained by an incremental procedure. The result is based on a continuity property for the energy release rate in a suitable class of admissible cracks.

Because of the small size of the investigated samples (millimetric size), fatigue cracks grown in conventional Al alloys with a grain size around 100 micrometers can be considered as microstructurally short cracks.
