Question

Suppose that a wing component on an aircraft is fabricated from an aluminum alloy that has a plane strain fracture toughness of 29 MPa (26.39 ksi). It has been determined that fracture results at a stress of 118 MPa (17110 psi) when the maximum internal crack length is 8.7 mm (0.3425 in.). For this same component and alloy, compute the stress level at which fracture will occur for a critical internal crack length of 5.9 mm (0.2323 in.).

    Answer:

    Suppose that a wing component on an aircraft is fabricated from an aluminum alloy that has a plane-strain fracture toughness of 26.0 MPa m−−√

    (23.7 ksi in.−−√

    ). It has been determined that fracture results at a stress of 112 MPa (16,240 psi) when the maximum internal crack length is 8.6 mm (0.34 in.). For this same component and alloy, compute the stress level at which fracture will occur for a critical internal crack length of 6.0 mm (0.24 in.).

    Explanation:

    As we know

    σ_{c} = K_{ic} / y√π a

    y = K_{ic} / σ_{c}√π a

    y = \frac{{29 MPa} }{(118 MPa)\sqrt{(3.14)[\frac{8.7*10^{-2} }{2}]  }  }

    y = 2.00

    now,

    σ_{c} = K_{ic} / y√π a

       = \frac{{29 MPa} }{( 2.00)\sqrt{(3.14)[\frac{5.9*10^{-3} }{2}]  }  }

       = 150.65 MPa

    So the stress level at which the fracture will occur  for  acritical internal crack length of 5.9 mm is 150.65 MPa.
