GB/T 41933-2022Plastics - Determination of tension-tension fatigue crack propagation - Linear elastic fracture mechanics(LEFM) approach (English PDF)

1 Scope

This document describes the measurement of tensile loads on notched specimens by periodically varying between a constant positive minimum value and a constant positive maximum value.

Determine the method of crack growth.

This document applies to the crack length as a function of the number of loading cycles, and the crack length growth rate as a function of the stress intensity at the crack tip.

Determination of the functional relationship between the factor and the energy release rate.

Note 1 to entry. Detect and report possible discontinuities in crack growth.

This document is also applicable to the determination of the crack growth resistance of materials.

Note 2.The results are expressed in terms of the number of cycles leading to crack growth failure or the relationship between the total time and the stress intensity factor, see Appendix A.

This document applies to the determination of tension-tension fatigue crack growth using the linear elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM) method for the following materials.

--- Rigid and semi-rigid thermoplastic moldings, extrusion materials (including filled and short fiber reinforced composites) and sheets;

---Rigid and semi-rigid thermosetting materials (including filled and short fiber reinforced compounds) and plates.

This document applies only to materials with very limited viscoelastic properties at the frequency of loading used and the duration of the test expected.
