17、ommittee ISE/NFE/4. It gives a method for the determination of fracture resistance curves and initiation values for stable crack extension in metallic materials. BS 7448 is being published in four Parts. Part 1 describes a method for determining K Ic , critical crack tip opening displacement (CTOD)

18、and critical J values of fracture toughness for metallic materials under displacement controlled monotonic loading at quasistatic rates. Part 2 describes a method for determining the fracture toughness of weldments in metallic materials. A further Part of BS 7448 is in preparation as follows. Part 3

19、 describes a method for determining dynamic fracture toughness. It has been assumed in the drafting of this standard that the execution of its provisions is entrusted to appropriately qualified and experienced people. CAUTION. It is important to note that tests of the type described involve the use

20、of large forces, and may involve the rapid movement of machine parts and fractured test specimens. Therefore it is important to consider the safety of machine operators. A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are responsi

21、ble for their correct application. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations.

The method uses fatigue precracked specimens. These are tested in

23、displacement controlled loading at a constant rate of increase in stress intensity factor within the range 0.5 MPam 0.5 s 1to 3.0 MPam 0.5 s 11)during the initial elastic deformation. Resistance to crack extension is characterized in terms of the variation in crack tip opening displacement (CTOD) an

24、d/or J with stable crack extension. These characterizations are referred to in this standard as and J R-curves, respectively. The method is only suitable for tests on specimens that exhibit stable crack extension. If unstable fracture or crack arrest occurs in any of the tests in an R-curve determin

25、ation it is necessary also to assess the test results in accordance with BS 7448-1. Testing requirements and analysis procedures are given which enable crack extension resistance curves to be calculated from both straight notch and stepped notch compact specimens and single edge notch bend specimens

26、. Individual fracture parameters are also defined for CTOD and J at a point where stable crack extension is close to the onset of initiation. The definition of fracture toughness values relevant to particular structural integrity assessments is outside the scope of this British Standard. NOTE Public

43、 5 Principle A fatigue crack is extended in a single edge notched bend or compact specimen by applying an alternating force within controlled limits. The specimen is then subjected to an increasing force. One of two techniques is used to determine crack extension: the multiple specimen method or the

44、 single specimen method. The multiple specimen method is regarded as the definitive approach. In the multiple specimen method a minimum of six nominally identical specimens are monotonically loaded to different displacements. NOTE If a multiple specimen R-curve is required in terms of both and J fra

45、cture toughness parameters, it may be necessary to test more than six specimens in order to satisfy the various spacing requirements (see 12.3). Measurements are made of forces and displacements up to the point of termination of the test. The specimen crack fronts are marked after testing thus enabl

46、ing measurement of stable crack extension after the specimens have been broken open. Alternatively, a single specimen method based on, for example, the unloading compliance or potential drop technique is used (see clause 10). The tests are then analysed to obtain resistance to crack extension curves

47、 (R-curves) i.e. a plot of fracture resistance, in terms of or J, against stable crack extension a. These can then be further analysed to obtain estimates of fracture toughness at the initiation of stable crack extension. This procedure is summarized in a flow chart in Figure 1. 3) At present no Bri
