Fatigue Crack Growth Monitoring of an Aluminum Joint Structure
The detection, location, and sizing of a fatigue crack emanating from a fastener hole in an aluminum plate is investigated. Two linear arrays of surface mounted piezoelectric disk transducers send and receive ultrasonic guided waves that are transmitted, reflected, and scattered by both the joint geometry and the fatigue crack. A tomography algorithm is used to detect and locate the crack. Ampl...
متن کاملFatigue Crack Detection and Sizing in Welded Steel Structures
The paper gives an outline of the non-destructive evaluation (NDE) methods currently being pursued at the Admiralty Marine Technology Establishment, Dunfermline, Scotland. The methods are being used to locate and characterise fatigue cracks in high yield strength welded steel structures. The techniques have been applied principally to large fatigue models (5' and 9' diameter) as part of a compr...
متن کاملFatigue Life Prediction for Welded Joints with Known Initial Crack
The inspection of various structures often detects a fatigue cracks developed during long service life. These fatigue cracks significantly reduce remaining fatigue life and fatigue strength. Influence of the initial fatigue cracks size in non-load-carrying fillet-welded one-sided transverse attachment joints on the remaining fatigue life and fatigue strength is considered in this paper. A compu...
متن کاملProbabilistic model for fatigue crack growth and fracture of welded joints in civil engineering structures
This paper presents a probabilistic assessment model for linear elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM). The model allows the determination of the failure probability of a structure subjected to fatigue loading. The distributions of the random variables for civil engineering structures are provided, and the relative importance of these random variables is determined. An example of a bridge detail is ...
متن کاملPredicting Low Cycle Fatigue Life through Simulation of Crack in Cover Plate Welded Beam to Column Connections
This paper presents a low cycle fatigue life curve by simulating a crack in a cover plate welded moment connection. Initiation of ductile fracture in steel is controlled by growth and coalescence of micro-voids. This research used a numerical method using finite element modeling and simulation of ductile crack initiation by a micromechanical model. Therefore, a finite element model of a cover p...
