The Fined COD Transform Formula for CT Specimens to Investigate Material Fracture Toughness

Article Preview

Abstract:

For front-force compact tension specimen (FFCT), based on the refined results of the relationship between crack tip opening displacement and load line crack opening displacement from Finite Element Analysis (FEA), the influences of material properties and plastic deformation near the crack tip have been analyzed. A simplified and accurate transform formula for FFCT specimens is presented in this paper, and the error analysis is conducted.
