The behavior of a 3-point bending test with incipient crack under load can be modelled by means of a finite element model. The model makes the consideration of elastic-plastic material behavior possible according to the respective material-specific stress-strain curve, which is converted with the beginning of the multi-linear kinematic hardening (M...

The problems with the crack length determination by the unloading compliance method are well known for Charpy size specimens. The final crack lengths calculated for bent specimens do not fulfil ASTM 1820 accuracy requirements. Therefore some investigations have been performed to resolve this problem. In those studies it was considered that the meas...

This joint project of IfW Darmstadt and MPA Stuttgart focused on methods of calculating crack initiation and crack propagation under creep load, creep fatigue load and fatigue load of 1% CrMoNiV steels and 12% CrMoV steels for high-temperature components of thermal machinery and plants. For the calculations of creep cracking and creep fatigue crack...
