Abstract: | A model for microstructurally short crack propagation in a grain structure of a polycrystalline material is developed. The crack propagation model is based on a crystal plasticity model and a microstructurally short crack propagation model in the spirit of the model by Navarro and de los Rios [A model for short fatigue crack propagation with an interpretation of the short-long crack transition. Fatigue Fract Eng Mater Struct 1987;10:169-86]. Numerical examples, where the combined crystal plasticity and crack propagation model is implemented in a model of a microstructure representing a duplex stainless steel, concludes the paper. Results showing how the misorientation of the crack- and slip-directions between two adjacent austenitic grains influences the crack propagation rate, as the crack propagates across their common grain boundary, are given. |
