Fatigue Crack Front Behavior near the Free Surface
M. Ševčík, P. Hutař, A. Kotousov, L. Náhlík
pages 274 - 275, full text

The development of the fatigue crack front shape in the engineering materials is still not fully understood problem. The fatigue crack front shape is influenced by many factors, e.g., crack closure, geometry of the structure, microstructure of the material, free surface effect, etc. The aim of this contribution is to provide experimental and numerical results that could help to quantify the influence of the main effects. The fatigue test results on aluminum is provided with emphasize on the geometry of the crack front. Experimentally obtained fatigue crack front shapes are compared with numerically estimated crack front shapes and discussed in the contribution.
