Load History Effects on the J -Curve

Source

The effect of load history on theJa behavior of materials was studied under cyclic loading conditions. Two steels were studied, an HY-130 steel and a A508 Class 2 steel. The HY-130 steel showed little effect of the cyclic loading and the behavior was labeled “R-curve-dominated crack growth.” The A508 Class 2 steel showed a significant effect of the cyclic loading and the behavior was labeled “cyclic-dominated crack growth.”
