ASTM E08.04.01 Workshop Life Prediction Methodology and Validation for Surface Cracks Norfolk, Virginia May 23, 2007
Goals • Develop validation procedures for surface cracks in monotonic and cyclic loading with regard to crack shape evolution, crack driving force, and fatigue life prediction. • Gather the basis for an ASTM guideline for software validation of analyses of surface cracks in monotonic or cyclic loading.
George Irwin on Surface Cracks “In the examination of fracture failures one rarely finds that the initial starting crack extended completely through the thickness or that the starting-crack development, say by fatigue, occurred along a line extending completely through a cross section of a component. A part-through crack is more typical of the starting-crack shape customarily found.” Dec. 1962 J. Appl. Mech.
