One Small Step
Author: A. F. Grandt Jr.
Publisher: Purdue University Press
ISBN: 1557539146
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 500
Book Description
Purdue University has played a leading role in providing the engineers who designed, built, tested, and flew the many aircraft and spacecraft that so changed human progress during the 20th century. It is estimated that Purdue has awarded 6% of all BS degrees in aerospace engineering, and 7% of all PhDs in the United States during the past 65 years. The University's alumni have led significant advances in research and development of aerospace technology, have headed major aerospace corporations and government agencies, and have established an amazing record for exploration of space. More than one third of all US manned space flights have had at least one crew member who was a Purdue engineering graduate (including the first and last men to step foot on the moon). The School of Aeronautics & Astronautics was founded as a separate school within the College of Engineering at Purdue University in 1945. The first edition of this book was published in 1995, at the time of the school's 50th anniversary. This corrected and expanded second edition brings the school's illustrious history up to date, and looks to Purdue's future in the sky and in space.

Influence of Fatigue Crack Closure on the Growth Rate of Surface Flaws

Pages : 239
Book Description
Inconsistent experimental results of fatigue crack closure studies over the past 15 years have caused recent investigators to conclude that the fundamental phenomena controlling the crack driving mechanisms are not understood. A major contributor to this misunderstanding is an inadequate understanding of the complex three-dimensional nature of closure. This is true for two-dimensional thru-the-thickness cracks as well as for three-dimensional part-thru surface cracks. To assess the three-dimensional influences of fatigue crack closure on the growth rate of surface flaws, an experimental investigation was conducted using a rectangular plate of polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) material loaded in four-point bending. The use of transparent PMMA material and a Newton optical interferometer system with a laser light source provided the capability to simultaneously measure three-dimensional crack opening displacement (COD) profiles and closure loads (Pc1).

Three-Dimensional Aspects of Fatigue Crack Closure
Author: A. F. Grandt
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 205
Book Description
This final report summarizes progress on a basic research effort to determine three-dimensional aspects of the relationship between applied load and fatigue crack face separation. The research was motivated by the well known crack closure phenomenon, which indicates that naturally occurring fatigue cracks are physical held shut (or propped open) at zero load, so that crack surfaces do not separate in a linear elastic manner. Although prediction of fatigue crack opening behavior is of fundamental importance to many aspects of crack growth, relatively little is known about the three-dimensional character of closure. The research employed experimental and numerical procedures to develop predictive techniques for this important aspect of crack closure. Optical interference was used to measure crack opening in transparent polymer specimens, along with conventional crack opening and back face strain techniques for measuring crack closure. A numerical algorithm was developed to predict opening loads in surface flawed plates, and was compared with the experimental results. Keywords: Crack propagation, Cracking(Fracturing).

An Inverse Method for the Calculation of Through-Thickness Fatigue Crack Closure Behavior
Author: DS. Dawicke
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Crack closure
Languages : en
Pages : 12
Book Description
An inverse technique was used to calculate through-thickness fatigue crack closure behavior. The through-thickness variation in crack opening stress-intensity factor was calculated by considering the variation in the three-dimensional stress-intensity factor, the variation in crack growth rate along the crack front, and a relationship between the crack growth rate and effective stress-intensity factor range (da/dN - ?Keff). The three-dimensional stress-intensity factor variation was obtained from an elastic finite element analysis of specific crack front profiles observed experimentally. The variation in crack growth rate along the crack front was obtained experimentally from comparison of observed crack front changes. The da/dN - ?Keff relationship was estimated from high stress ratio, constant load amplitude, fatigue crack growth tests. The through-thickness crack opening stress-intensity factor results agreed with crack opening measurements obtained from fatigue striations, near-tip strain gages, and remote strain and displacement gages.
