Residual stresses
Residual stresses are stresses that remain
after the original cause of the stresses
Wikipedia
(external forces, heat gradient) has been removed.
Residual stresses always appear to some extent during
fabrication operations such as casting, rolling or welding.

Residual stresses
TOTAL STRESS = APPLIED STRESS + RESIDUAL STRESS
Welding: produces tensile residual stresses -> potential sites for cracks.

Design philosophies
Safe life
The component is considered to be free of defects after
fabrication and is designed to remain defect-free during
service and withstand the maximum static or dynamic
working stresses for a certain period of time. If aws, cracks,
or similar damages are visited during service, the component
should be discarded immediately.
Damage tolerance
The component is designed to withstand the maximum static
or dynamic working stresses for a certain period of time
even in presence of aws, cracks, or similar damages of
certain geometry and size.

Denitions
Crack, Crack growth/propagation
A fracture is the (local) separation
of an
object or material into two, or more, pieces
under the action of stress.

Photoelasticity
Wikipedia
Photoelasticity is an experimental method to determine the stress distribution in a material.
The method is mostly used in cases where mathematical methods become quite cumbersome.
Unlike the analytical methods of stress determination, photoelasticity gives a fairly accurate
picture of stress distribution, even around abrupt discontinuities in a material. The method is an
important tool for determining critical stress points in a material, and is used for determining
stress concentration in irregular geometries.

K-G relationship
So far, two parameters that describe the
behavior of cracks: K and G.
K: local behavior (tip stresses)
G: global behavior (energy)
Irwin: for linear elastic materials, these two params are
uniquely related
Crack closure analysis: work
to open the crack = work to close
the crack

Example
Consider an innite plate with a central crack of length 2a
subjected to a uniaxial stress perpendicular to the crack
plane. Using the Irwins model for a plane stress case, show
that the effective SIF is given as follows
Keff
a

Solution:
The effective crack length is a + r1

Keff = (a + r1 )

Example
1. Calculate the fracture toughness of a material for which a plate
test with a central crack gives the following information: W=20in,
B=0.75in, 2a=2in, failure load P=300kip. The yield strength is 70ksi. Is
this plane strain? Check for collapse. How large is the plastic zone
at the time of fracture?
2. Using the result of problem 1, calculate the residual strength of a
plate with an edge crack W=5 inch, a=2inch.
3. In a toughness test on a center cracked plate one obtains the
following result: W=6in, B=0.2in, 2a=2in, Pmax=41kips, ys = 50 ksi.
Calculate the toughness. How large is the plastic zone at fracture? Is
the calculated toughness indeed the true toughness?

Fatigue
Fatigue occurs when a material is subjected to repeated loading and unloading (cyclic loading).
ASTM denes fatigue life, Nf, as the number of stress cycles of a specied character that a
specimen sustains before failure of a specied nature occurs.
Under cyclic loadings, materials can fail (due to fatigue) at stress levels well below their
strength -> fatigue failure.

For very small structures the curve approaches the horizontal line and, therefore, the
failure of these structures can be predicted by a strength theory. On the other hand,
for large structures the curve approaches the inclined line and, therefore, the failure
of these structures can be predicted by LEFM.

Dynamic fracture
Dynamics is much more difcult than static
Dynamic fracture mechanics
- inertia forces (kinetic energy)
- rate-dependent material behavior
- reected stress waves
