一种经验型疲劳小裂纹扩展模型

金属材料疲劳寿命由裂纹萌生和裂纹扩展寿命两部分组成，其中对于萌生寿命中的小裂纹分析是精确描述裂纹萌生寿命的关键．而小裂纹在扩展过程中由于尺寸相对较小，导致传统线弹性断裂力学预测方法失效，需要对其进行改进，考虑裂纹尖端塑性区引起的残余压应力对小裂纹扩展速度的影响．本文针对此问题进行了初步分析，通过对塑性区引起的残余应力的量化，结合小裂纹门槛值特性，提出了一种经验型修正的小裂纹扩展模型，用于定量预测裂纹的萌生寿命．使用铝合金6082-T6缺口试样进行了疲劳实验，并与理论结果进行了对比，验证了所提模型的有效性．     

改进的Irwin模型及裂尖塑性区对断裂行为的影响

本文研究了小范围屈服条件下I型裂纹尖端塑性区对断裂行为的影响.Irwin模型假设塑性区外奇异应力场分布是弹性解的平移,并将塑性区的一部分加上原有裂纹视为等效裂纹.这样得到的等效应力强度因子总是大于相应的线弹性解的应力强度因子,这与塑性区的增韧作用相悖.为了考察塑性区对裂纹尖端附近应力分布的影响,本文提出在塑性影响区内,裂纹延长线上奇异应力分布与线弹性奇异应力场静力等效的原则.在此基础上建立了改进的Irwin模型,并导出了衡量塑性区屏蔽效应的显式表达式,定量地解释了塑性区的屏蔽效应,本文结果与基于相变增韧理论的方法得到的结果在趋势上一致.     

Elastic-plastic fields near crack tip growing step-by-step in a perfectly plastic solid

In this paper, based on the three-dimensional flow theory of plasticity, the fundametal equations for plane strain problem of elastic-perfectly plastic solids are presented. By using these equations the elastic-plastic fields near the crack tip growing step-by-step in an elastic incompressible-perfectly plastic solid are analysed.The first order asymptotic solutions for the stress field and velocity fields near the crack tip are obtained. The solutions show the evolution process of elastic unloading domain and the development process of central fan domain and reveal the possibility of the presence of the secondary plastic domain. The second order asymptotic solution for stress field is also presented.

Why the stress trajectories in the Dean-Hutchinson plastic sector of the growing mode III crack are an unfocused fan

The plastic zone of the growing mode III crack in an elastic perfectly plastic solid consists of two sectors in contact with each other. The sector closer to the crack plane, first studied analytically by Chitaley and McClintock (CM), consists of a fan of straight maximum shear stress trajectories that are focused on the crack tip. The other sector, first analyzed numerically by Dean and Hutchinson (DH), is a ‘radial’ fan of straight lines that are not focused at the crack tip or at another common point. In this paper it is shown with use of the dislocation density field that the need that the stress magnitude in the plastic wake be below the yield stress requires the existence of an unfocused fan in the DH sector. It appears unlikely that this result can be obtained without explicit use of dislocations.     

Mode II dynamic fields near a crack tip growing in an elastic-perfectly-plastic solid

An asymptotic solution is given for Mode II dynamic fields in the neighborhood of the tip of a steadily advancing crack in an incompressible elastic—perfectly-plastic solid (plane strain). It is shown that, like for Modes I and III (Gao and Nemat-Nasser, 1983), the complete dynamic solution for Mode II predicts a logarithmic singularity for the strain field, but unlike for those modes which involve no elastic unloading, the pure Mode II solution includes two elastic sectors next to the stress-free crack surfaces. This is in contradiction to the quasi-static solution which predicts a small central plastic zone, followed by two large elastic zones, and then two very small plastic zones adjacent to the stress-free crack faces. The stress field for the complete dynamic solution varies throughout the entire crack tip neighborhood, admitting finite jumps at two shock fronts within the central plastic sector. This dynamic stress field is consistent with that of the stationary crack solution, and indeed reduces to it as the crack growth speed becomes zero.     

Finite deformation analysis of crack tip fields in plastically compressible hardening–softening–hardening solids

Crack tip fields are calculated under plane strain small scale yielding conditions. The material is characterized by a finite strain elastic–viscoplastic constitutive relation with various hardening–softening–hardening hardness functions. Both plastically compressible and plastically incompressible solids are considered. Displacements corresponding to the isotropic linear elastic mode I crack field are prescribed on a remote boundary. The initial crack is taken to be a semi-circular notch and symmetry about the crack plane is imposed. Plastic compressibility is found to give an increased crack opening displacement for a given value of the applied loading. The plastic zone size and shape are found to depend on the plastic compressibility, but not much on whether material softening occurs near the crack tip.On the other hand, the near crack tip stress and deformation fields depend sensitively on whether or not material softening occurs. The combination of plastic compressibility and softening(or softening–hardening) has a particularly strong effect on the near crack tip stress and deformation fields.     

A numerical study of crack tip constraint in ductile single crystals

In this work, the effect of crack tip constraint on near-tip stress and deformation fields in a ductile FCC single crystal is studied under mode I, plane strain conditions. To this end, modified boundary layer simulations within crystal plasticity framework are performed, neglecting elastic anisotropy. The first and second terms of the isotropic elastic crack tip field, which are governed by the stress intensity factor K and T-stress, are prescribed as remote boundary conditions and solutions pertaining to different levels of T-stress are generated. It is found that the near-tip deformation field, especially, the development of kink or slip shear bands, is sensitive to the constraint level. The stress distribution and the size and shape of the plastic zone near the crack tip are also strongly influenced by the level of T-stress, with progressive loss of crack tip constraint occurring as T-stress becomes more negative. A family of near-tip fields is obtained which are characterized by two terms (such as K and T or J and a constraint parameter Q) as in isotropic plastic solids.     

Elastoplastic near field solution for mode II crack loaded by remote shear stress in an infinite plate

A suitable elastic stress field near the crack line which satisfied the far field boundary conditions and the boundary conditions of the crack surfaces has been obtained and successful analysis has been made of a near crack line field for an infinite elastic-perfectly plastic medium containing a quasi-statically propagating plane stress crack subjected to far field shear stress. It is shown that the solutions of the problem of mode II crack loaded by remote shear stress from the Westergaard method in some previous papers is used as the elastic stress field near the crack line, are inappropriate.     

Crack growth under plane stress conditions in an elastic perfectly-plastic material

Mode-I crack growth under conditions of generalized plane stress has been investigated. It has been assumed that near the plane of the crack in the loading zone, the simple stress components corresponding to a central fan field maintain validity up to the elastic-plastic boundary. By the use of expansions of the particle velocities in the coordinate y, and by matching of the relevant stress components and particle velocities to the dominant terms of appropriate elastic fields at the elastic-plastic boundary, a complete solution has been obtained for ε_y in the plane of the crack. The solution applies from the propagating crack tip up to the moving elastic-plastic boundary. The strain fields for a self-similar crack nucleating at a point and for steady-state propagation of a crack have been considered as special cases.     

Analytic solutions to crack tip plastic zone under various loading conditions

Based on stress field equations and Hill yield criterion, the crack tip plastic zone is determined for orthotropic materials and isotropic materials under small-scale yielding condition. An analytical solution to calculating the crack tip plastic zone in plane stress states is presented. The shape and size of the plastic zone are analyzed under different loading conditions. The obtained results show that the crack tip plastic zones present “butterfly-like” shapes, and the elastic–plastic boundary is smooth. The size of the plastic zone for orthotropic composites is less at the crack tip for various loading conditions, compared with the case of isotropic materials. Crack inclination angle and loading conditions affect greatly the size and shape of crack tip plastic zone. The mode I crack has a crucial effect on the plastic zone for mixed mode case in plane stress state. The plastic zone for pure mode I crack and pure mode II crack have a symmetrical distribution to the initial crack plane.     

Asymptotic analysis of growing plane strain tensile cracks in elastic-ideally plastic solids

An exact asymptotic analysis is presented of the stress and deformation fields near the tip of a quasistatically advancing plane strain tensile crack in an elastic-ideally plastic solid. In contrast to previous approximate analyses, no assumptions which reduce the yield condition, a priori, to the form of constant in-plane principal shear stress near the crack tip are made, and the analysis is valid for general Poisson ratio ν. Specific results are given for ν = 0.3 and 0.5, the latter duplicating solutions in previous work by L.I. Slepyan, Y.-C. Gao and the present authors. The crack tip field is shown to divide into five angular sectors of four different types ; in the order in which these sweep across a point in the vicinity of the advancing crack, they are : two plastic sectors which can be described asymptotically (i.e., as r → 0, where r is distance from the crack tip) in slip-line terminology as ‘constant stress’ and ‘centered fan’ sectors, respectively ; a plastic sector of non-constant stress which cannot be described asymptotically in terms of slip lines; an elastic unloading sector; and a trailing plastic sector of the same type as that directly preceding the elastic sector. Further, these four different sector types constitute the full set of asymptotically possible solutions at the crack tip. As is known from prior work, the plastic strain accumulated by a material point passing through such a moving ‘centered fan’ sector is O(ln r) as r → 0 ; it is proved in the present work that the plastic strain accumulated by a material point passing through the ‘constant stress’ sector ahead of a growing crack must be less singular than In r as r → 0. As suggested also in earlier studies, the rate of increase of opening gap δ at a point currently at a distance r behind, but very near, the crack tip is given for crack advance under contained yielding by

$\text{δ}\text{?}\text{=}\text{α}\text{J}\text{?}\text{σ}{}_0\text{+β(}\text{σ}{}_0\text{E}\text{)}\text{a}\text{?}\text{ln(}\text{R}\text{r}\text{)}$

where a is crack length, σ0 is tensile yield strength, E is Young's modulus, J is the value of the J-integral taken in surrounding elastic material, and the parameters α and R are undetermined by the asymptotic analysis. The exact solution for ν = 0.3 gives β = 5.462, which agrees very closely with estimates obtained from finite element solutions. An approximate analysis based on use of slip line representations in all plastic sectors is outlined in the Appendix.
