Division of Engineering, Brown University, 02912, Providence, Rhode Island, USA aut Mechanics and micromechanisms of fatigue crack growth in brittle solids [Elektronische Daten] [S. Suresh] This paper is concerned with the mechanics and micromechanisms of stable mode I crack growth in brittle solids subjected to compression-compression fatigue and tension-tension fatigue loads. Constitutive models, results of finite element analyses, and experimental observations are described for monolithic ceramics and ceramic-matrix composites, plain concrete, and a transformation-toughened ceramic in an attempt to deduce a general theory on the origin of mode I fracture in notched plates under uniaxial cyclic compression at room temperature. An analysis of the residual stress field which develops at elevated temperatures in response to power law creep and far-field compressive cyclic loads is also presented. The principal "driving force” for mode I fracture in cyclic compression is the generation of a near-tip zone of residual tension, when the deformation at the notch-tip leaves permanent strains upon unloading from the far-field compressive stress. The results indicated that materials with very different microscopic deformation mechanisms, i.e., microcracking, dislocation plasticity, martensitic transformation, interfacial debonding/slip, or creep, exhibit a macroscopically similar, stable fracture under far-field cyclic compression because the zone of residual tension is embedded in material which is elastically strained in compression. It is shown that cyclic compression loading offers a unique method for fatigue precracking notched specimens of brittle solids prior to tensile fracture testing, whereby an unambiguous interpretation of the critical stress intensity factors for crack initiation and growth can be achieved. Fatigue crack growth characteristics of a transformation-toughened ceramic and a creeping ceramic composite under tension-tension fatigue loads are also discussed.
