Numerical Determination of Fatigue Threshold from CTOD

Article Preview

Abstract:

The experimental procedure to obtain valid and comparable values of ΔKth is laborious and time consuming. The objective of this work is to determine ΔKth using a numerical approach. The CTOD is plotted versus load, and the fatigue threshold corresponds to the onset of plastic deformation. A parametric study was developed in order to understand the effect of material parameters on ΔKth.
