fracture mechanics

measurment of FCG based on crack tip closure concept depend on :

1- experimental technique

2-location of the measurement

3- mean stress effect on FG at high stress ratio can not be explained by the closure model due to the absense of the crack closure at high loads.

Two question can be investigated as follows:

1- why crack tip closure is popular and it widely use in hightech industry like aircraft industry acording to overwiew of scentific articles.?

Creep strength of 304 stainless steel

Submitted by jinhenghua on Thu, 09/10/2009 - 19:12

Is there any good reference for creep strength of 304 stainless steel at 1000C? I am very curious the behavior of such material at extreme conditions, like creep strength as a function of temp.

Thanks a lot,

Henghua

Unlike other blog-posts of mine, I am not going "own" this particular thread. By that, I mean to say: I am going to only begin this thread and immediately turn it over to you completely. I am not going to watch over whether the discussion here continues to stick to its main theme or not, whether it slides into some minor side issues, whether it deserts the main theme altogether, etc., the way I usually do.

Thank you for all of quick response. Yes, I need a calculation method as long as good agreement with measurment methohs.Generalization will be important in which method we choose espesially in calculation of stress field.

Modeling HyperElastic Material in ABAQUS,

Submitted by mcmistry on Tue, 09/08/2009 - 21:43

ABAQUS/CAE

Dear All,

I am modeling rubber seal with hyperelastic material and I am using CAX4R Element for modeling. I achieved contact solution using initial analysis and as an output I got contact pressure and radial and axial displacement of the nodes.
