Oblique edge crack in an anisotropic material under antiplane shear

An oblique edge crack in an anisotropic material under antiplane shear loadings is investigated. The antiplane problems are formulated based on a linear transformation method. An anisotropic solid containing an edge crack subjected to concentrated forces is first considered. The stress intensity factor for the edge crack with concentrated forces is obtained from the solution of the transformed edge crack in an isotropic material which is solved by using conformal mapping technique and complex function theory. The solution of the edge crack under concentrated loads is used to construct the stress intensity factor for the oblique edge crack in the anisotropic material subjected to antiplane distributed loads. Some numerical computations are carried out to calculate the stress intensity factors for the edge crack in inclined orthotropic materials subjected to point forces as well as distributed tractions.

The mode III crack problem in a medium possessing coupled electro-magneto-elastic is considered. Two asymmetrical edge cracks emanate from an elliptical hole. Combined stress, electric and magnetic loads are considered. The elliptical hole and cracks are assumed to be either magneto-electrically impermeable or permeable. The closed-form solution for stress, electric and magnetic intensity factors are derived explicitly. Also the solution for energy release rate is given in closed form. The solution is based on the complex variable method combined with the method of conformal mapping. Numerical computations are given to illustrate the effect of variable geometrical and material parameters on stress, electric and magnetic intensity factors and energy release rate.     

The stress intensity factor history for an advancing crack in a transversely isotropic solid under 3-D loading

The mode I extension of a half plane crack in a transversely isotropic solid under 3-D loading is analyzed. Firstly, the fundamental problem that the crack is subjected to a pair of unit point loads on its faces is considered.

The Cagniard–de Hoop method is employed to invert the transforms. An exact expression is derived for the mode I stress intensity factor as a function of time and position along the crack edge. Based on the fundamental solution, the stress intensity factor history due to general loading is then obtained. Some features of the solutions are discussed through numerical results.

Cracking of an orthotropic substrate reinforced by an orthotropic plate

A solution method is derived to determine the stress intensity factors for both an internal crack and an edge crack in an orthotropic substrate that is reinforced on its boundary by a finite-length orthotropic plate. The method utilizes the Green’s functions for a pair of dislocations and a concentrated force on the boundary while invoking the concept of superposition. Enforcing the traction-free boundary condition along the crack surfaces and the continuity of displacement gradients along the plate/substrate interface results in a coupled system of singular integral equations. An asymptotic analysis of the kernels in these equations for the region of the junction point between the plate corner and the substrate boundary reveals the strength of the singularity in the case of an edge crack. The numerical solution of the integral equations provides results for the stress intensity factors for both an internal crack and an edge crack perpendicular to the substrate boundary and aligned with one of the corners of the plate. The present results have been validated against previously published stress intensity factors for an internal crack and an edge crack in an isotropic substrate.     

STUDY ON DYNAMIC STRESS INTENSITY FACTORS OF DISK WITH A RADIAL EDGE CRACK SUBJECTED TO EXTERNAL IMPULSIVE PRESSURE

A dynamic weight function method is presented for dynamic stress intensity factors of circular disk with a radial edge crack under external impulsive pressure. The dynamic stresses in a circular disk are solved under abrupt step external pressure using the eigenfunction method. The solution consists of a quasi-static solution satisfying inhomogeneous boundary conditions and a dynamic solution satisfying homogeneous boundary conditions. By making use of Fourier-Bessel series expansion, the history and distribution of dynamic stresses in the circular disk are derived. Furthermore, the equation for stress intensity factors under uniform pressure is used as the reference case, the weight function equation for the circular disk containing an edge crack is worked out, and the dynamic stress intensity factor equation for the circular disk containing a radial edge crack can be given. The results indicate that the stress intensity factors under sudden step external pressure vary periodically with time, and the ratio of the maximum value of dynamic stress intensity factors to the corresponding static value is about 2.0.     

Stress intensity factors for an oblique edge crack in a coating/substrate system with a graded interfacial zone under antiplane shear

This paper investigates the edge crack problem for a coating/substrate system with a functionally graded interfacial zone under the condition of antiplane deformation. With the interfacial zone being modeled by a nonhomogeneous interlayer having the continuously varying shear modulus between the dissimilar, homogeneous phases of the coated medium, the coating is assumed to contain an edge crack at an arbitrary angle to the interfacial zone. The Fourier integral transform method is used in conjunction with the coordinate transformations of basic field variables. Formulation of the proposed crack problem is then reduced to solving a singular integral equation with a generalized Cauchy kernel. The mode III stress intensity factors are defined and evaluated in terms of the solution to the integral equation. In the numerical results, the values of the stress intensity factors are plotted, illustrating the effects of the crack orientation angle for various material and geometric combinations of the coating/substrate system with the graded interfacial zone.     

Analysis of dynamic stress intensity factors of thick-walled cylinder under internal impulsive pressure

Dynamic stress intensity factors are evaluated for thick-walled cylinder with a radial edge crack under internal impulsive pressure. Firstly, the equation for stress intensity factors under static uniform pressure is used as the reference case, and then the weight function for a thick-walled cylinder containing a radial edge crack can be worked out. Secondly, the dynamic stresses in uncracked thick-walled cylinders are solved under internal impulsive pressure by using mode shape function method. The solution consists of a quasi-static solution satisfying inhomogeneous boundary conditions and a dynamic solution satisfying homogeneous boundary condi- tions, and the history and distribution of dynamic stresses in thick-walled cylinders are derived in terms of Fourier-Bessel series. Finally, the dynamic stress intensity factor equations for thick-walled cylinder containing a radial edge crack sub- jected to internal impulsive pressure are given by dynamic weight function method. The finite element method is utilized to verify the results of numerical examples, showing the validity and feasibility of the proposed method.     

Experimental and numerical analysis of vibrating cracked plates at resonant frequencies

Owing to the advantages of noncontact and fullfield measurement, an optical system called the amplitude fluctuation electronic speckle pattern interferometry (AFESPI) method with an out-of-plane setup is employed to investigate the vibration of a cantilever square plate with a crack emanating from one edge. Based on the fact that clear fringe patterns will be shown by the AFESPI method only at resonant frequencies, both the resonant frequencies and the vibration mode shapes can be obtained experimentally at the same time. Three different crack locations will be discussed in detail in this study. One is parallel to the clamped edge, and the other two are perpendicular to the clamped edge. The numerical finite element calculations are compared with the experimental results, and good agreement is obtained for resonant frequencies and mode shapes. The influences of crack locations and lengths on the vibration behavior of the clamped cantilever plate are studied in terms of the dimensionless frequency parameter (λ ²) versus crack length ratio (a/L). The authors find that if the crack face displacements are out of phase, a large value of stress intensity factor may be induced, and the cracked plate will be dangerous from the fracture mechanics point of view. However, there are some resonant frequencies for which the crack face displacements are completely in phase, causing a zero stress intensity factor, and the cracked plate will be safe.

The mode III cracks originating from the edge of a circular hole in a piezoelectric solid

A mode III fracture problem of edge cracks originating from a circular hole in an infinite piezoelectric solid is studied based on complex variable method combined with the method of conformal mapping. Explicit and exact expressions for the complex potentials, field intensity factors and energy release rates are presented under the assumption that the surface of the cracks and hole is electrically impermeable. Numerical analysis is then conducted to discuss the influences of crack length and applied mechanical/electric loads on the field intensity factors and energy release rate for one and two edge cracks, respectively. It is found that for the case of a single edge crack, the field intensity factors are greater than those of double edge cracks, and moreover the electric loads can either promote or retard crack growth, depending on the magnitude and direction of the applied electric loads.

Small edge crack in a semi-infinite solid subjected to thermal stratification

The mode I stress intensity factor for a small edge crack in an elastic half-space is found when the space is in contact with two stratified fluids of different temperatures, the boundary between the fluids oscillating sinusoidally over the solid surface. The variation in the stress intensity factor, which may lead to thermal fatigue crack growth, is examined as a function of time, crack depth, amplitude and temporal frequency of oscillation, surface heat transfer coefficient and material properties of the half-space. It is shown how this ‘boundary layer’ solution may be applied to problems involving finite geometries.     

Subcritical crack growth of edge and center cracks in façade rock panels subject to periodic surface temperature variations

This paper examines subcritical cracking in a rock panel or slab containing either a pre-existing edge or a center crack perpendicular to the panel surface. The panel is subject to periodic surface temperature variation on one side of the panel while the other is kept at a constant temperature. The thermally induced stress intensity factors are determined using superposition technique by employing the fundamental point load solution for an edge crack or a center crack in a slab of finite thickness. Rock panel is modeled as a long elastic strip with either a free or a fully constrained lateral end condition. The temperature variations versus time at various depths of the rock panel appear roughly as a sinusoidal function. The lateral thermal stress for the free end case is larger than the constrained end case; whereas stress intensity factors for both edge and center cracks in the constrained end slab are 1000 times larger than that of free end case. Subcritical crack propagation in rock panels on façade is then estimated as a function of time. This subcritical crack propagation continues until a critical crack size is attained and the rock panel will fail under wind load. This new theoretical framework provides a new paradigm to examine the mechanisms of time-dependent cracking in rock panels on façade of buildings.
