A large flat plate is subjected to constant-amplitude uniaxial cyclic tensile stresses of a maximum stress...

A large flat plate is subjected to constant-amplitude uniaxial cyclic tensile stresses of a maximum stress of 147 and a minimum stress of 32 MPa. If before testing the largest surface crack is 0.98 mm and the plain-strain fracture toughness of the plate is 33.4 MPa m1/2, estimate the fatigue life of the plate in cycles to failure. For the plate, m = 3.7 and A = 5.0 x 10-12 in MPa and meter units. Assume Y = 1.14

Answer #1

Answer:

Given that,

Maximum stress = 147 MPa

Minimum stress = 22 MPa

Surface crack = 0.98 mm

Plain strain fracture toughness of the plate = 33.4 MPa m1/2

m = 1.4

A = 5.0*10-12

Y = 1.17
