The introduction of an overload or underload within a constant amplitude loading fatigue test
leads to a retardation or acceleration of the Fatigue Crack Growth Rate (FCGR). The …

Crack tip opening displacement (CTOD) was measured using digital image correlation (DIC)
and resolved into elastic and plastic CTOD components via an offset compliance technique …

The plastic crack tip opening displacement (CTODp) is considered to replace ΔK in the study
of fatigue crack propagation. The cyclic plastic deformation of the 7050‐T6 aluminium alloy …

Abrupt increase in the maximum load during fatigue cycling modifies the deformation
conditions at the crack tip, causing plastic flow that may lead to crack closure, introducing …

Small fatigue crack growth (SFCG) behavior is examined for additively manufactured Ti-6Al-
4V specimens with optimal and trial build conditions (representing an increased degree of …

The crack tip opening displacement, CTOD, is a classical parameter of fracture mechanics.
The applicability of this parameter in the context of crack closure and fatigue crack growth is …

This paper presents an extensive literature review focusing on the utilisation of crack tip
plasticity as a crucial parameter in determining and enhancing crack growth models. The …

Refractory high-entropy alloys (RHEAs) exhibit remarkable strengths at elevated
temperatures and are hence extremely promising candidates for high-temperature structural …

The effect of single peak overload on the crack propagation of selective laser melting
Inconel 625 superalloy was investigated in this study. Irwin model and Shih model were …

High‐energy X‐rays offer the large penetration depths that are often required for
determination of bulk properties in engineering materials research. Photon energies of 150 …
