Book Synopsis A Fractographic Study of the Edge-Sliding Mode in Fracture Toughness Testing by : DB. Chisholm
Book excerpt: A fractographic study of Mode II fracture surfaces has been conducted for the purpose of identifying the microstructural mechanisms responsible for fracture in the edge-sliding mode. A compact shear (CS) specimen developed by the authors was employed to generate the fracture surfaces and also to establish Mode II fracture toughness values (KIIc) for Ti-6Al-4V, A533-B steel, and several aluminum alloys. In all tests, one of the two edge cracks sustained complete Mode II fracture while the other exhibited only a limited amount of subcritical crack growth. Mode II fracture surfaces, which were unique in appearance, have been examined by optical and scanning electron microscopy.
