    This document contains 3 problems related to fatigue analysis: 1) Calculate the minimum number of days to determine the fatigue threshold of a material using a cyclic frequency of 2 Hz and crack growth rate threshold of 10-11 m/cycle. 2) Given a fatigue crack growth relationship, calculate the number of pressure cycles a piston can withstand with a 1 mm semi-circular flaw. 3) Derive expressions for the critical crack length and lifetime of an aircraft tail section given its stress range, NDT resolution, and a Paris law crack growth relationship.

    35 Problem Set #5
    Assigned: 11/6/03
    Due: 11/13/03 in class
    From S. Suresh, Fatigue of Materials
    1: Problem 2.1
    2: Problem 2.2
    3: Performing a fatigue threshold test using manual load controls in a servo-hydraulic
    testing machine can be an extremely time consuming task. Calculate the minimum
    number of days required to determine the threshold stress intensity factor range, Kth, of
    a material at a cyclic frequency of 2 Hz, if Kth is defined as the threshold corresponding
    to a growth rate of no more than 10-11 m/cycle and if the resolution of the crack detection
    technique is 0.03 mm.
    4: In Problem Set 2, you computed the magnitude of the bursting pressure for a
    piston/cylinder fabricated from a peak-aged aluminum alloy (problem 10.7 in Fatigue of
    Materials). Consider an identical piston-cylinder arrangement, where the cylinder
    contains a semi-circular flaw 1.0 mm in radius, instead of an elliptical flaw. If the fatigue
    crack growth behavior of the aluminum alloy is characterized by the relationship da/dN =
    3 x 10-10 (K)2.5, where da/dN is in m/cycle, and K is in MPa m1/2, how many pressure
    cycles could the cylinder withstand before bursting?
    5. The design stress of the tail section of a prototype military aircraft is such that it
    never exceeds a stress corresponding to one-third of the yield strength, and the cyclic
    service loading is expected to vary from a minimum stress (min) of one-twelfth of the
    yield strength to a maximum stress (max) of one-third of the yield strength (i.e. R =
    0.25). The tail section is inspected with an ultrasonic non-destructive testing method,
    with a resolution limit of 0.01 in.
    Assuming that (1) the stress intensity factor for any defects present in the tail section
    is given by:
    KI = a
    (1)

    where is the far-field applied stress and a is the crack length, and (2) the growth of
    fatigue cracks is governed by the Paris law
    da
    = C(K) m
    (2)
    dN
    where da/dN is the fatigue crack growth rate per cycle, K is the stress intensity factor
    range, and C and m are material constants, derive expressions for
    (i)
    the critical crack length in the tail section
    (ii)
    the lifetime of the tail section in terms of the material properties (i.e. the
    yield strength, C, m, plane strain fracture toughness, etc.)
