The coupled Finite Fracture Mechanics (FFM) criterion is applied to investigate brittle fracture in rounded V-notched samples under mode I loading. The approach is based on the contemporaneous fulfilment of a stress requirement and the energy balance, the latter being implemented on the basis of a recently proposed analytical expression for the stress intensity factor. Results are presented in terms of the critical crack advance and the apparent generalized fracture toughness, i.e. the unknowns related to the system of two equations describing the FFM criterion. A validation of the theory is performed by employing varying root radius notched, as-quenched, AISI 4340 steel specimens fracture results.

Abstract The 21/4% Nickel Steel possesses a combination of moderate strength and superior resistance to brittle fracture at subzero temperatures. It is one of the most economical materials for the construction of equipment to operate at temperatures as low as -90 F. It is intended primarily for welded pressure vessels. This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, elasticity, and tensile properties as well as fracture toughness. It also includes information on corrosion resistance as well as forming, heat treating, machining, and joining. Filing Code: SA-378. Producer or source: Alloy steel mills and foundries.
