In the present study it has been endeavored to estimate the fatigue crack propagation in V-notch Charpy specimens of 2024 T351 Al-alloy. For this purpose, a new application of fatigue crack growth (FCG) is developed based on the “Gamma function.” Experimental fatigue tests are conducted for stress ratios from 0.1 to 0.5 under constant amplitude loading. The empiric model depends principally on physical parameters and materials’ properties in non-dimensional form. Deviation percentage, prediction ratio, and band error are used for validation of the performance of the fatigue life. The results determined from Gamma application are in good agreement with experimental FCG rates and those obtained from using Paris law.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
