Book Description
Most of the currently available methods for predicting fatigue crack growth in structures do not consider effects due to mixed-mode loading. This is partly due to the limited information available concerning the fatigue crack growth under mixed mode loading. Previous investigations of mixed mode effects on fatigue crack growth have shown that under combined opening and in-plane shear loading, the cracks turn abruptly so that the in-plane shear mode is eliminated [1-3]. Very little data are generated before the crack curvature eliminates the mixed mode loading. The changing orientation of the crack during the test makes analysis of the problem difficult and may cloud the intrinsic fatigue crack growth rate behavior under mixed mode loading. Situations can exist in engineering structures in which cracks may grow in a self-similar manner even under the influence of mixed mode loading. Examples of such situations are radial cracks in bearing races [4] and transverse cracks in rotating shafts under shear and bending loads. The cracks may not change orientation because the in-plane shear component is fully reversed. It is necessary to understand the effects of mixed mode loading on fatigue crack growth in order to properly predict the behavior of these components.

Book Description
Fatigue crack growth behavior of high-strength Ladish D6AC steel was examined under various conditions of frequency, environment, temperature, stress ratio, and stress intensity history. Materials with fracture toughness ranging from 50 to 100 ksi/sq. in., but with the same yield strength of 220 ksi, were examined. Variations in fracture thoughness do not have a strong effect on crack growth rate at stress intensity levels within the log-linear portion of the crack growth curves. Different environments, such as dry air, laboratory air, and distilled water, were found to produce different fatigue crack growth behavior at 1 Hz but not at 10 Hz loading frequency. The lowest crack growth rate occurred in dry air, while the aggressive environment of distilled water affected the crack growth rate more severly at lower stress intensity levels. The effects of temperature over the range from -40 to 175F are a uniform shift of the growth curve to low crack growth rates and a lowering of the stress intensity level for the onset of rapid fatigue crack propagation. Suppression of crack growth rate following high prior stress cycles is the most significant effect of stress history. This effect cannot be explained in terms of the relative plastic zone sizes alone. (Author).

Book Description
Fatigue crack growth rates (da/dN) as a function of applied stress intensity amplitude (delta K) were determined for four high strength steels (HP 9-4-.45, 18% Ni marage 250, D6Ac, AISI 4340) in air at 10 percent and at 80 percent relative humidities (R.H.). All four steels demonstrated sensitivity to high humidity with crack growth rates in 80 percent R.H. air being one and one-half to two times as high as in 10 percent R.H. air. Overall crack growth rates of three steels, HP 9-4-.45, 18% Ni marage 250, and D6Ac, were similar, while rates for AISI 4340 were uniformly higher than those of the other three steels. (Author).
