What is Detection and Toughness Characterisation of Ductile Crack Initiation in 316 Stainless Steels about?

A B S T R A C T Tests on SEN bend specimens of cold worked 316 stainless steels have enabled values of the crack opening displacement at fibrous crack initiation, 61, to be compared with initiation toughness values implied by various crack monitoring techniques and methods of assessing crack tip ductility. The estimation methods available for obtaining values of the J contour integral from a load/displacement curve have been utilised and compared and have enabled relationships between Je, 61 and specimen geometry to be investigated for the test materials. The results indicate that the sensitivity of the crack monitoring techniques to the detection of initiation is not only dependent on experimentation but also on the rate at which ductile crack growth proceeds following initiation. The interrelation between sensitivity, crack growth rate and toughness is discussed.

Who reads Detection and Toughness Characterisation of Ductile Crack Initiation in 316 Stainless Steels?
