Creep crack within weldments are very common in engineering practices, and the cracking location in these welding structures always appears at the HAZ location. The mismatch effect on the mixed mode creep crack is still not clear in these available literatures. The aim of this paper is to investigate the mismatch influence on the creep crack of mixed mode thoroughly. A mixed mode creep crack within HAZ is established in this paper. The leading factor that dominates the creep crack tip field under mixed loading mode is studied. The influences of mismatch effect on mode mixity, stress distribution and stress triaxiality are proposed. The difference of mixed mode creep crack and normal mode I or mode II creep crack are compared. The influence of mixity factor on the transient and steady state creep of crack tip are also analyzed.

Abstract The diffusion of hydrogen in metals is of interest due to the deleterious influence of hydrogen on material ductility and fracture resistance. It is becoming increasingly clear that hydrogen transport couples significantly with dislocation activity. In this work, we employ a coupled diffusion-crystal plasticity model to incorporate hydrogen transport associated with dislocation sweeping and pipe diffusion in addition to standard lattice diffusion. Moreover, we consider generation of vacancies via plastic deformation and stabilization of vacancies via trapping of hydrogen. The proposed hydrogen transport model is implemented in a physically-based crystal viscoplasticity framework to model the interaction of dislocation substructure and hydrogen migration. In this study, focus is placed on hydrogen transport and trapping within the intense deformation field of a crack tip plastic zone. We discuss the implications of the model results in terms of constitutive relations that incorporate hydrogen effects on crack tip field behavior and enable exploration of hydrogen embrittlement mechanisms.

Carefully performed experiments with long cracks in the near-threshold regime have shown that the crack tip field of these cracks significantly deviate from the expected mode-I butterfly-shaped ones and resemble strongly to mixed-mode crack tip fields. A simulation study using a crystal plasticity (CP) approach has been utilized in order to understand this phenomenon. To this end, a digital twin of an aluminum sample fatigued in the near-threshold regime was generated with the help of electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) and X-ray tomography. Once set-up, the digital twin was loaded in uniaxial tension using the fast spectral solver implemented in the Düsseldorf Advanced Material Simulation Kit (DAMASK). The versatility of this experimental-computational approach for studying the strain partitioning at the crack tip is demonstrated in this work.
