Stochastic Crack Propagation
Stochastic Crack Propagation: Essential Practical Aspects describes a feature important to the analysis of stochastic crack propagation, starting with essential background theory. Processes, or phenomena, which are of practical importance in the work of design engineers or R&D teams are described chapter by chapter. Many examples are described and supported by listed references, and files of data that can be used with specialist software to practice design situations are included. Advice on how to use various computer programs to design and predict for stochastic crack growth is also provided, giving professionals a complete guide. - Presents instructions and exercises in the ideal format for professionals, focusing on applications - Explains a methodology on how to optimize the engineering design process by including stochastic crack growth behavior - Provides computational files to help readers get up-to-speed with design using programs like ANSYS and NASTRAN for stochastic crack growth
Stochastic Crack Propagation with Applications to Durability and Damage Tolerance Analyses
Various stochastic models for fatigue crack propagation under either constant amplitude or spectrum loadings have been investigated. These models are based on the assumption that the crack growth rate is a lognormal random process, including the general lognormal random process, lognormal white noise process, lognormal random variable, and second moment approximations, such as Weibull, gamma, lognormal and Gaussian closure approximations. Extensive experimental data have been used for the correlation study with various stochastic models. These include fastener hole specimens under fighter or bomber spectrum laodings and center-cracked specimens under constant amplitude loads. The data sets for the fastener hole specimens cover adequately different loading conditions, environments, load transfers and crack size range. It is shown that the white noise process is definitely not a valid model for fatigue crack propagation. Keywords: Fracture mechanics; Durability; and Structural components.
