Fatigue crack growth testing at negative stress ratios: discussion on the comparability of testing results

Abstract: A B S T R A C T It is an accepted fact in fatigue community that compressive loads contribute to fatigue crack growth. Evidences range from fatigue crack growth under fully compressive loads to effects of compressive underloads to negative stress ratio loading. Because the crack closes under compression and the crack flanks transmit compressive stresses, the loading situation is completely different to those of tensile loading. The present paper addresses the comparability of crack growth testing procedures at… Show more

“…Since R = -1, the compressive stresses in the crack plane are lower for the crack length a 2 , although K max and R are identical. The compressive stresses in the crack plane can be determined by linear finite element analyses, according to [11]. Figure 2c shows the compressive stresses in the crack plane corresponding to the minimum load at a 1 and Figure 2d shows the distribution for a 2 .…”

“…This approach found a discrete success, even though some specific questions remain to be addressed. In fact, negative load ratios have been shown to profoundly change the crack closure levels, and the correlation with the classical parameters of the fracture mechanics, the stress intensity factor (SIF) range Δ K , and the negative load ratio R , is difficult to verify . However, the effect of the compressive stress and negative load ratios is controversial.…”
