Abstract

To predict the fatigue limit with a mechanically long crack under mixed modes based on the fracture mechanics, fatigue tests were conducted with an inclined notch. As a result, damage accumulation (DA) mode of fatigue crack propagation was found to occur from the crack tip. The DA mode is caused by the formation and coalescence of micro-voids. Therefore, the method of modifying the initial crack length by considering the DA mode crack propagation length has shown potential application in fatigue limit prediction. Moreover, a classification method of DA and normal modes is proposed.
