Singular behaviour at the end of a tensile crack in a hardening material

TLDR
In this paper, a total deformation theory of plasticity, in conjunction with two hardening stress-strain relations, is used to determine the dominant singularity at the tip of a crack in a tension field.
Abstract
D istributions of stress occurring at the tip of a crack in a tension field are presented for both plane stress and plane strain. A total deformation theory of plasticity, in conjunction with two hardening stress-strain relations, is used. For applied stress sufficiently low such that the plastic zone is very small relative to the crack length, the dominant singularity can be completely determined with the aid of a path-independent line integral recently given by rice (1967). The amplitude of the tensile stress singularity ahead of the crack is found to be larger in plane strain than in plane stress.

Dislocation crack tip shielding and the Paris exponent

TL;DR: In this article, semi-quantitative calculations are made to show how the Paris exponent can be increased by dislocation shielding and showed how dislocation crack tip shielding can cause a reduction in the fatigue crack growth rate.

Effect of solution temperature on the microstructure and mechanical properties of Hastelloy X superalloy fabricated by laser directed energy deposition

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of solution temperature on the microstructure and mechanical properties of Hastelloy X fabricated by laser-directed energy deposition (LDED) was investigated, and the room temperature tensile results reveal that the as-deposited sample with irregular and long-striped Laves phase presents the worst tensile strength (652 −± 10 −MPa) and elongation (30 −± 2%).

Yielding and work hardening effects in notched bend bars

TL;DR: In this article, the problem of general yielding in notched bend bars has been addressed using both finite element method (FEM) calculations and also experiments on a variety of steels, finding that the plastic zone is diffuse, broad, and develops slowly, quite unlike the shape of the slipline field at general yield.

Contained plastic deformation near cracks and notches under longitudinal shear

TL;DR: In this paper, an exact linear elastic-perfectly plastic solution for the problem of sharp notch (or, when the notch angle is zero, a crack) in a plane of finite width subjected to anti-plane stresses inducing a stress and deformation state of longitudinal shear is presented.
