Fatigue in Compression

Abstract: THE PURPOSE of this note is to draw attention to the apparently little-known fact that stage I1 type fatigue cracks can initiate and grow under compressive applied loads. The effect has been demonstrated in compact tension specimens, 25 mm thick [I], of normalised mild steel and En 8. First, the specimen with a machined notch was compressed for about 10 s by a load of 50.5 kN (corresponding to a stress intensity at the notch tip of 77.4 MN rnP3/'). Next, the specimen was subjected to a 25 Hz sinusoidal compres… Show more

“…This agrees with the assumption that T should be proportional to the plastic zone size. w in equation (2) is about 6 times greater than fin equation (4). But it has to be noticed that w in equation ( 2 ) is calculated for plane stress conditions.…”

“…A fatigue crack propagates under residual tensile stress governed greatly by plastic strains in the direction of free surface [4]. Large low-strength and plastic nonmetallics composed mostly of manganous sulphide contribute to plastic deformation of metals.…”

“…In the figure, the hatched area indicates the fatigue fracture surface and the arrow indicates the direction of crack growth. The crack length of a nonpropagating crack on the surface under a plane stress condition is longer than that at mid-thickness which is under a plane strain condition [7,8,121. As the maximum applied stress increases, the nonpropagating crack length becomes longer, and the crack front becomes parallel to the notch as seen in Fig.…”
