An analytical fracture mechanics model for predicting the finite life fatigue strength of components is
presented which combines a number of well established and newly developed approaches such as
Murakami's and McEvily's approach for describing the transient behaviour of crack closure of short
cracks, the analytical (long) crack closure function of Newman which became part of the widely used
NASGRO approach, the R6 procedure, a method for improving the ligament yielding correction f(Lr ) of
R6 proposed by the authors of the present paper and other elements. Basic assumption is the preexistence
of initial flaws such that the crack initiation or nucleation stage is small and can be neglected.
The application of the model is demonstrated for small tension plates of aluminium Al 5380 H321 with
artificial initial defects generated by FIB technology, the size of which was fixed on the basis of
fractographic investigations on broken, smooth specimens.

The net section limit load FY is a key input parameter for the accuracy of any
elastic-plastic flaw assessment procedure of the R6 type. Unfortunately available limit load
solutions are of variable quality since they have been obtained over decades by different
methods. As a consequence the results of the fracture analyses such as the critical load or
crack size are limited in their accuracy and are often significantly conservative. A further
problem is that common limit load solutions based on ligament yielding are inadequate in a
number of cases even for through crack configurations and should be replaced by some
kind of local yielding solutions. In the present paper a simple and straightforward reference
load definition is proposed instead of the limit load which strictly corresponds to a ligament
yielding parameter Lr = 1 in the R6 Routine and similar approaches such as SINTAP and
FITNET. This can be determined by finite element simulation for any geometry. In addition to
a previous study on thin wall notched plates the method is applied to plates containing
shallow semi-elliptical surface cracks. The results demonstrate that the approach provides a
suitable extension and improvement of the existing methods.
The net section limit load FY necessary for assessment at static loading is a key input for the accuracy of any elasticplastic flaw assessment procedure of the R6 type.

Design methodology of vessel produced by L PBF stainless steel using representative specimens
(2022)
This work presents the preliminary results of an ongoing project with a double objective: on the one hand, the characterisation of the mechanical properties against fatigue damage of an additively manufactured 316 stainless steel produced by laser powder bed-based (L-PBF) technology; on the other hand, the implementation of numerical simulation techniques able to predict the mechanical behaviour of the material in order to optimise and reduce the design costs of vessels used in the chemical sector. The current state of the work developed in this research framework allows showing the first batch of experimental results of crack propagation rate (FCGR) and high cycle fatigue (HCF) tests. The geometry of the vessels studied presents three clearly differentiated regions, either in terms of thickness (11-15 mm) or concerning the inclination of the walls to the direction of manufacturing (0º - 45º). The experimental campaign carried out so far allows identifying the differences in behaviour when comparing different extraction locations around the vessel. This is due to the variations in thermal cycles that the deposited material undergoes during the manufacturing process. Therefore, this causes variations in the microstructure which lead to changes in the response of the material. In this work, these differences are analysed qualitatively and quantitatively from the results of FCGR and HCF, thus allowing to locate the regions with the highest risk in terms of structural integrity against fatigue. This preliminary phase together with the numerical simulation of the additive manufacturing process are key to achieving a reliable description and modelling of the material. The latter will make it possible to address the priority aim of this project, involving the manufacture of independent samples whose properties are representative of the original material extracted from the reference vessels. It is, therefore, a comprehensive methodology for the design of additively manufactured components based on the localised fatigue mechanical properties of representative specimens.
The robust determination of the threshold against fatigue crack propagation DKth is of paramount importance in fracture mechanics based fatigue assessment procedures. The standards ASTM E647 and ISO 12108 introduce operational definitions of DKth based on the crack propagation rate da/dN and suggest linear fits of logarithmic DK– da/dN test data to calculate DKth. Since these fits typically suffer from a poor representation of the actual curvature of the crack propagation curve, a method for evaluating DKth using a nonlinear function is proposed. It is shown that the proposed method reduces the artificial conservativeness induced by the evaluation method as well as the susceptibility to scatter in test data and the influence of test data density.
Bei der Auslegung von Achsschenkeln für Nutzfahrzeuge wird für den Überlastfall ein fail-safe-Kriterium (kontrolliertes Versagen) als Basisphilosophie angesetzt. Gefordert wird, dass sich der Achsschenkel auch unter Akzeptanz begrenzten Risswachstums hinreichend elastisch-plastisch verformen kann, ohne dass es zum Bruch kommt. Der Fahrer soll anschließend anhand der bleibenden Verformungen bemerken können, dass mit seinem Fahrzeug etwas nicht in Ordnung ist. Eine Voraussetzung für dieses Bauteilverhalten ist eine hinreichende Bruchzähigkeit des Werkstoffs. Diese, wie auch die Rissspitzenbeanspruchung, müssen ermittelt werden, um den bruchmechanischen Sicherheitsnachweis führen zu können. Zur Ermittlung der mechanisch-technologischen und bruchmechanischen Werkstoffeigenschaften wurde ein Prüfkonzept entwickelt, bei dem die Proben an der potenziell kritischen Stelle direkt aus den geschmiedeten Achsschenkeln entnommen werden. Die experimentelle Werkstoffcharakterisierung bildet dann die Beanspruchungsbedingungen beim Überlastereignis ab. Im Rahmen der Produktion stehen jedoch nur Kerbschlagarbeitswerte zur Verfügung und aufwändige bruchmechanische Versuche sollen vermieden werden. Deshalb wurde eine Korrelation zur Abschätzung der vorhandenen Bruchzähigkeit aus der Kerbschlagarbeit herangezogen. Es ergibt sich eine Ergebnismatrix, die die Einflussgrößen Versagenswahrscheinlichkeit, Temperatur und Bruchzähigkeit verknüpft. Abschließend wird ein erster Vergleich der abgeschätzten mit den experimentell ermittelten Bruchzähigkeitswerten gezogen. Dieser weist aus, dass die abgeschätzten Werte geringfügig konservativ sind.
