Correlation between linear extrapolated CTOD and fatigue crack growth rate
Abstract
In order to evaluate the endurance life of materials and structures, much attention has been focussed on the sub-critical fatigue crack growth law and its growth rate in the engineering field. Taking the range of the LEFM crack tip stress and strain field parameter as a controlling parameter for FCGR in an elastic field, Jkris et al established an empirical relation referred to as paris Law: ( 1 ) https://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="block"> d a d N = A ( Δ K ) n
