A comparison of currently available codes for assessment of fatigue crack growth, including ASME (America Society of Mechanical Engineers) SEC. XI, FKM (Forchungskuratorium Maschinenbau) guideline, WES (Japan Welding Engineering Society) 2805, BS7910 and JSME (The Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers), was carried out by paying attention to the suitability of application and the easiness to obtain the parameters, based on fatigue crack growth data of Cr-Ni-Mo-V steel welded joints. Results showed that fatigue crack growth curves provided by the FKM or WES were good choice when few inputs were at hand while the curves in the BS7910, JSME and ASME were recommended for precise estimation. It was indicated that the assessment of welded joints solely by fatigue crack growth behavior at base metal part and the assessment of fatigue crack growth for the aged condition by as-received one both resulted in non-conservativeness, albeit dependent on the range of stress ratios, R. A new bilinear form of fatigue crack growth model independent of R was developed based on transition point occurred in the near-threshold regime. This constituted the bilinear approach to fatigue assessment, and thus contributed to the optimization of fatigue assessment in the near-threshold regime.

In this study, a Monte Carlo method (MCM) was applied on the fatigue crack growth rate (FCGR) curves to evaluate a probabilistic assessment for the welded longitudinal Al 6013-T4 aluminum alloy under various post-weld heat treatment (PWHT) conditions. The welded CT specimens were manufactured by a tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding, and the fatigue crack growth (FCG) tests were conducted by following ASTM E647. Before conducting the FCG test, the PWHT conditions were applied to the welded CT specimens under three different aging times of 6 h, 18 h, and 24 h at 175 C. The FCGR curves were generated from the FCG data and plotted on the da/dN versus Δk curves. The constants C and m were determined by drawing the fitting line on the FCGR curves. A sizeable random number was generated from the obtained constants by MCM. By plotting these constants, the probabilistic assessment of FCGR was determined on the da/dN versus Δk curves. The results showed that the confidence interval was appeared on the FCGR curves and limited by the upper and lower probabilistic lines. It was found that the lower and upper probabilistic lines were formed at 1 % and 90 %, respectively.

The purpose of the present contribution is to predict the fatigue life of welded joints by using the effective cyclic J-integral as crack driving force. The plasticity induced crack closure effects and the effects of welding residual stresses are taken into consideration. Here, the fatigue life is regarded as period of short fatigue crack growth. The node release technique is used to perform finite element based crack growth analyses. For fatigue lives calculations, the effective cyclic J-integral is employed in a relation similar to the Paris (crack growth) equation. For this purpose, a specific code was written for the determination of the effective cyclic J-integral for various lifetime relevant crack lengths. The effects of welding residual stresses on the crack driving force and the calculated fatigue lives are investigated. Results reveal that the influence of residual stresses can be neglected only for large load amplitudes. Finally, the predicted fatigue lives are compared with experimental data: a good accordance between both results is achieved.

The objective of the paper is to present the newest results of our complex research work. In order to determination and comparison of the fatigue resistance, fatigue crack growth tests were performed on different grades of S690QL quenched and tempered, and S960TM thermomechanically rolled high strength steels.15 mmand30 mmthick base materials were used for our investigations. Welded joints were made from these base materials, using gas metal arc welding with matching, overmatching, and undermatching filler metals. In the paper, the performance of the welding experiments will be presented, especially with the difficulties of the filler material selection; along with the results of the fatigue crack growth examinations executed on the base materials and its welded joints. Statistical aspects were applied both for the presenting of the possible locations of the cracks in the base materials and the welded joints and for the processing of the measured data. Furthermore, the results will be compared with each other, and the possibility of derivation of fatigue crack propagation limit curves will be referred.
