Numerical Fatigue Crack Growth on Compact Tension Specimens under Mode I and Mi...
Martins, Rui F.; Xavier, José; Caldeira, JoãoPublisher Copyright: © 2024 by the authors.; This study focused on standard Compact Tension (CT) specimens and two loading modes during the numerical analyses carried out, namely: pure mode I and mixed-mode loading (Modes I+II). Numerical stress intensity factors, KI, were calculated using Abaqus® 2022 and compared with those given analytically under pure mode I loading, showing very good agreement. Additionall...
