By introducing this concept, the eigen COD formulation of boundary integral equation is proposed in this paper, together with the solution procedures for multiple crack problems in plane elasticity. With the proposed approach, the multiple crack problems can be solved with the conventional displacement discontinuity boundary integral equations in an iterative fashion with a small size of system matrix as that in the numerical Green’s function （NGF） approach but without the trouble to determine the complementary solutions since the standard boundary element discretization on the crack surface is no longer required with the proposed approach. Some numerical examples computing the stress intensity factors are presented and compared with those in literature to show the accuracy and the effectiveness of the proposed approach.展开更多

Remotely applied in-plane unidirectional electromechanical loads open the cracks in mode-I such that the saturation zone developed at the interior tips of cracks gets coalesced. The developed saturation zones are arrested by distributing over their rims in-plane normal cohesive electrical displacement. The problem is solved using the Stroh formalism and the complex variable technique. The expressions are derived for the stress intensity factors （SIFs）, the lengths of the saturation zones developed, the crack opening displacement （COD）, and the energy release rate. An illustrative numerical case study is presented for the poled PZT-5H ceramic to investigate the effect of prescribed electromechanical loads on parameters affecting crack arrest. Also, the effect of different lengths of cracks on the SIFs and the local energy release rate （LERR） has been studied. The results obtained are graphically presented and analyzed.展开更多

The threshold value is higher for materials with larger interlamellar spacing.No matter what the stress ratio is,during the propagation near threshold,the propagation rate will be the same,provieded the crack tip opening displacement range is the same. Metallurgical examinations were also carried out to show that the crack propagation path is sensitive to mierostructure.The crack always propagates along either boundary of pearlite colony or ferrite lamellar in pearlite.展开更多

Closed form of its solution was obtained and three corresponding problems of isotropic bimaterial, of a single anisotropic material and of a bimaterial of isotropy- anisotropy were treated as the specific cases. The plastic zone length of the crack tip and crack openning displacement ( COD) decline as the smaller yield limit of the two bonded materials rises, and they were also determined by crack length and the space between two neighboring cracks . In addition , COD also relates it with moduli of the materials .展开更多

The relationship between J-integral arid COD has been investigated for a long time and was generally represented as J = m σy, δ, where σy is the yield strength arid m is a function of specimen geometry arid material properties. To determine the value of m, extensive studies and experiments have been performed. The method that used the fracture-surface topography analysis （ FRASTA ） for determining J-integral from fracture surfaces of materials was introduced. On the basis of the relationship between COD arid fracture surface average profile, the relationship between J-integral arid COD was deduced arid compared with the generally used equation. The method was experimentally confirmed to be able to provide a new way to determine the relationship between J-integral and COD.展开更多

Based on Yoffe＇s solution, the Dugdale model for the moving crack case gives a good result. However, the Dugddle model fails when the crack speed is closed to the Rayleigh wave speed because of the discontinuity occurred in the crack opening displacement （COD）. The problem is solved in this paper by introducing a restraining stress zone ahead of the crack tip and two velocity functions. The restraining stresses are linearly distributed and related to the velocity of the moving crack. An analytical solution of the problem is obtained by use of the superposition principle and a complex function method. The final result of the COD is continuous while the crack moves at a Rayleigh wave speed. The characteristics of the strain energy density （SED） and numerical results are discussed, and conclusions are given.展开更多
