1.

A tension member is made of AISI 4340 steel, with b = 120 mm, and thickness t = 12 mm. There is an edge crack through the full thickness and extending to a length a = 18 mm in the width direction. What is the maximum permissible tension load if a safety factor of 3 against brittle fracture is required? Clue: Find the K inside lectures slide

2.

A center crack plate made of 7075-T6 aluminium alloy has dimensions, as figured below with W = 19.05 mm, B = 6.60 mm and large h. a zero to maximum (R = 0) cyclic load of P = 18.8 kN is applied, causing crack to grow. Crack growth rates measured at various crack lengths are given in table below a, mm 7.32 9.53 12.07 14.94 da/dN, mm/cycle 1.76 x 10-4 5.08 x 10-4 1.27 x 10-3 3.18 x 10-3

(a) Calculate DK for each crack length, and then make a da/dN vs DK plot for these data (b) Obtain approximate values for C and n (Paris equation)

3.

A bearing pedestal of a rotating equipment has a martensitic steel plate with an edge notch. The plate is subjected to a cyclic load in tension due to very high rotor vibrations. Estimate the rate of crack growth (da/dN) on the premise that the applied maximum and minimum stress on the plate in fatigue are 58 and 18 ksi respectively. The approximate notch size for this case can be assumed to be 0.45 in
