Abstract:Accurate quantification of crack tip stress intensity values is paramount in the analysis of damage tolerant structures. The present analytical investigation seeks to determine the stress intensity solutions for crack geometries outside the existing valid solution space and expand the analysts ability to capture representative crack growth behavior. The focus of this investigation is to calculate the stress intensity factors of single quarter-elliptical corner cracks emanating from centrally located holes in f… Show more
