Mode II Fatigue Crack Growth Specimen Development

Source

A novel Mode II test specimen has been developed that has potential application in understanding phenomena associated with mixed-mode fatigue failures in high performance aircraft engine bearing races. The attributes of the specimen are as follows: it contains one single-ended notch, which simplifies data gathering and reduction; the fatigue crack grows in-line with the direction of load application; a single axis test machine is sufficient to perform testing; and the Mode I component is vanishingly small.
