Evaluating stress intensity factors due to weld residual stresses by the weight function and finite element methods

Bao, Rui; Zhang, Xiang; Yahaya, N. A. (Elsevier Science B.V., Amsterdam., 2010-09-30)

This paper presents a study on the application of the weight function and finite element methods to evaluate residual stress intensity factors in welded test samples. Three specimen geometries and various residual stress ...
Evaluation of the intrinsic crack growth rates of weld joints

Zhang, Xiang; Bao, Rui (Elsevier Science B.V., Amsterdam., 2011-04-30)

A method is presented for evaluating weld intrinsic fatigue crack growth rate (FCGR) by excluding the influence of residual stresses. The method is potentially useful for predicting crack growth lives of structural ...
Fatigue crack growth behaviour and life prediction for 2324-T39 and 7050-T7451 aluminium alloys under truncated load spectra

Bao, Rui; Zhang, Xiang (Elsevier Science B.V., Amsterdam., 2010-07-01)

This paper presents a study of crack growth behaviour in aluminium alloys 2324- T39 and 7050-T7451 subjected to flight-by-flight load spectra at different low- stress truncation levels. Crack branching was observed in the ...
An inverse method for evaluating weld residual stresses via fatigue crack growth test data

Bao, Rui; Zhang, Xiang (Elsevier Science B.V., Amsterdam., 2010-11-30)

This paper presents an inverse method for calculating the thermal residual stresses in welded specimens via measured fatigue crack growth rates. Firstly, fracture-mechanics superposition law has been used to extract the ...
