Development of in-situ fatigue crack observing system for rotating bending fatigue testing machine
Journal Title: Frattura ed Integrità Strutturale - Year 2016, Vol 10, Issue 35
Abstract
To substitute for a traditional replication technique, an in-situ fatigue crack observing system for rotating bending testing machine has been newly developed. For verifying performance of this observing system, fatigue tests were carried out by using fatigue specimen having a small artificial defect. It is proved that this system can be detect a small fatigue crack and its propagation behavior.

Analysis of cracking of low-alloy copper stretched at elevated temperature
This paper presents both mechanical and structural aspects of micro-cracking of CuNi2Si copper alloy in CNCS grade revealed during the static tensile test in the temperature range between 20ºC and 800ºC. The...
High-cycle fatigue strength of a pultruded composite material
Dealing with composites in polymeric matrix, the pultruded ones are among the more suitable for large production rates and volumes. For this reason, their use is increasing also in structural applications in civil and...
Static assessment of brittle/ductile notched materials: an engineering approach based on the Theory of Critical Distances
Engineering components often contain notches, keyways or other stress concentration features. These features raise the stress state in the vicinity of their apex which can lead to unexpected failure of the compone...
3D Analyses of crack propagation in torsion
The initiation and propagation of fatigue cracks during cyclic torsion loading was studied in a cast Al alloy (A357) with a relatively large (~500 μm) grain size. 2D observations, revealed that multi site crack i...
