The drill pipe near the surface stands the largest tension and torsion load for the full hole during drilling operation. And fatigue crack growth is always the major cause of failure of drill string. As an example, 5ʺ drill pipe that was near the well head of an ultra-deep straight well and made of 30CrMo, whose constitutional relation was fitted by experiment, was analyzed here. Simplifying the initial crack of the drill pipe as circumferential semi-elliptical surface crack, we simulated the elastic-plastic fracture feature of the drill string with surface crack, partly through-wall crack and fully through-wall crack under combined loading of axial force and torsion. Crack front geometry evolvement is simulated for the different stages of crack propagation. This work would provide a basis for the full-range analysis of fatigue crack growth.

Abstract Fatigue crack growth can occur in elastomeric structures whenever cyclic loading is applied. In order to design robust products, sensitivity to fatigue crack growth must be investigated and minimized. The task has two basic components: (1) to define the material behavior through measurements showing how the crack growth rate depends on conditions that drive the crack, and (2) to compute the conditions experienced by the crack. Important features relevant to the analysis of structures include time-dependent aspects of rubber’s stress-strain behavior (as recently demonstrated via the dwell period effect observed by Harbour et al.), and strain induced crystallization. For the numerical representation, classical fracture mechanical concepts are reviewed and the novel material force approach is introduced. With the material force approach at hand, even dissipative effects of elastomeric materials can be investigated. These complex properties of fatigue crack behavior are illustrated in the context of tire durability simulations as an important field of application.
