The Effect of Grain Size on Fatigue Growth of Short Cracks
TL;DR: In this article, the influence of alloy grain size on growth rates of surface cracks 20 to 500 μm in length was studied in Al 7075-T6 specimens prepared in 12 and 130 μn grain sizes.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the transition from near‐threshold to intermediate growth rates in fatigue
TL;DR: In this article, the cyclic stress intensity threshold for fatigue crack growth in A1 2219-T851 is associated with a critical maximum value of stress intensity, Kc.
Journal ArticleDOI
The extent of crack tip plasticity for short fatigue cracks
Journal ArticleDOI
Relationships between crack opening displacement, alloy variables, and crack detection sensitivity
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of grain size on the non-destructive detection of surface cracks which might arise from closure stress and path irregularity variables were evaluated using an acoustic harmonic generation technique, and it was discovered that the major source of harmonic signals was grain sized crystallographic cracks.
