| Description | The stress intensity factors were calculated by a three dimensional finite element method. The finite element models employed singularity elements along the crack front and linear strain elements elsewhere. The models had about 6500 degrees of freedom. The stress intensity factors were evaluated from a nodal force method. An equation for the stress intensity factors was obtained form the results of the present analysis. The equation applies over a wide range of configuration parameters and was within about 5 percent of the present results. A comparison was made between the present results and other analyses of internal surface cracks in cylinders. The results from a boundary integral equation method were in agreement (+ or - 2 percent) and those from another finite element were in fair agreement (+ or - 8 percent) with the present results. |
