Neutron diffraction measurement of the stress field during fatigue cycling of a cracked test specimen

  • 1. Materials Physics and Metallurgy Division, Harwell Lab., Didcot (UK)

Description

The triaxial stress field has been measured along the center line of a compact tension specimen in the direction of cracking. The specimen had been subjected to ∼ 60,000 cycles at ΔK = 31 and Kmax = 34 MPa mm1/2 and was bolted open at maximum stress. The field was remeasured after the stress had been fully relaxed. The results are discussed in terms of expectations from fracture mechanics calculations
