Interface body of different strength influences the plastic or cohesive zone at the crack tip in parent body. The mathematical model for load line opening of the crack near the interface in linear elastic regime involves singular integrals. The paper presents explicit solution of these integrals with the help of Cauchy’s principal value theorem. Cases of thin and thick welds between the materials are investigated. Solutions of the integrals are well substantiated. Final results are provided in a consolidated form.展开更多

In the present investigation, the fatigue crack growth behaviour of weld metal (WM) and heat affected zone (HAZ) regions of under matched (UM), equal matched (EM) and over matched (OM) joints has been studied. The base material used in this investigation is HSLA-80 steel of weldable grade. Shielded metal arc welding (SMAW) process has been used to fabricate the butt joints. Centre cracked tension (CCT) specimen has been used to evaluate the fatigue crack growth behaviour of the welded joints. Fatigue crack growth experiments have been conducted using servo hydraulic controlled fatigue testing machine at constant amplitude loading (R=0).A method has been proposed to predict the fatigue life of HSLA steel welds using fracture mechanics approach by incorporating influences of mismatch ratio (MMR) and notch location.展开更多
