1 Specimen Geometry and Material Property Uncertainty Model for Probabilistic Fatigue Life Predictions Prakash Chandra Gope*, Sandeep Bhatt**, and Mohit Pant** *Associate Professor, Mechanical Engineering Department, College of Technology, G B Pant University of Agriculture & Technology, Pantnagar , India **Research Scholar E mail: pcgope@rediffmail.com, Phone , Fax ABSTRACT The present paper describes an analytical model derived from energy theorem which is coupled with the uncertainty associated with material properties and geometrical parameter to estimate fatigue life and crack growth at different level of probability and confidence level. A substantial amount of published data has been used to validate the proposed model for predicting S-N curve as well as fatigue crack growth of steel, aluminum alloys, copper alloys and titanium alloys. Some of are 4340, 304 steel, 0.26 % Carbon steel, different aluminum alloys, titanium alloys etc. Different test geometry such as CT specimen, SEN specimen geometry etc has also been taken to find out the acceptability of the model. INTRODUCTION The analysis of cracks within structure is an important aspect if the damage tolerance and durability of structures and components are to be predicted. As part of the engineering design process, engineers have to assess not only how well the design satisfies the performance requirements but also how durable the product will be over its life cycle. Often cracks cannot be avoided in structures; however the fatigue life of the structure depends on the location and size of these cracks. In order to predict the fatigue life for any component, crack growth study needs to be performed. Fatigue life is related to and is affected to a great extent with the uncertainties in both the material properties and the specimen or component geometrical parameters. The intent of the work is to contribute to the fundamental understanding of fatigue life and its relation with these uncertainties. Fatigue life data exhibits wide scattered results due to inherent microstructural inhomogeneity in the material properties even if the test specimens are taken from the same lot and tested under same loading condition. Several methods [1-27] have been discussed in the literature to predict the fatigue life but the problem of uncertainty associated with material and specimen geometry has not been addressed so far. As the fatigue testing is time consuming and costly, setting up of an analytical method for prediction of fatigue life is necessary. The different monotonic material properties such as yield strength, modulus of elasticity, fracture properties such as critical stress intensity factor, threshold and crack opening stress intensity factors, loading parameters and geometry parameters such as specimen or component width, thickness, length, crack aspect ratio etc. have been considered in the model. These parameters are treated as random variable and assuming normally distributed, the associated uncertainty in these parameters are incorporated in the crack growth model. The assumptions of these variables are also verified from the simulated results. Crack growth model is derived from the energy theorem. In the present work an approximate analytical model derived from the energy theorem and probabilistic nature of material properties and specimen geometry parameters are combined and correlated to determine the associated error in the predicted fatigue life. The Error in estimating the fatigue life is derived from the expected values of fatigue life. The prediction is based on minimization of the error. The model can also be used to predict the fatigue life or crack growth at different level of probability and confidence level. Hence it can be used to draw P-S-N curve. MATERIAL AND METHOD The fatigue crack propagation rate equation based on strain energy release rate derived by Bhatt [2] is given as da dn = αµ E. µσ y and fatigue life is obtained as, 1 ( µ ) 2 KI µ Kth 2 1 K max µ K IC (1)
2 a f da N f = a0 ( µ K ) I µ 2 K αµ th E. µσ 2 y K 1 max µ K IC where 1.0 if φ >1.15 α = 3.0 if φ φ φ φ for 0.27< φ <1.15 φ = K σ y B B is the specimen thickness, and KI = Kmax Kmin if K min > K op otherwise KI = Kmax Kop where s : Standard deviation da : Increment in crack length, mm dn : Increment in number of cycles to failure, cycles a 0 : Initial crack length, mm a f : Final crack length, mm K I : Stress intensity factor range, MPa m N f : Fatigue life, cycles µ : Population mean σ y : Yield strength, MPa µ (...) : Population mean of variable (..) s (...) : Standard deviation of variable (..) K max : Maximum stress intensity factor, MPa m K min : Minimum stress intensity factor, MPa m K op : Crack opening stress intensity factor, MPa m The opening parameters can be obtained from the following relations. S op = A A1 + A2 R + A3 R, R 0 (3) Smax S op = A0 + A1 R, 1 < R < 0 (4) Smax where 1 π α α α 2 S ( ) cos max A 0 = + 2 σ 0 A ( ) max 1 = α S σ 0 A2 = 1 A0 A1 A3 A 3 = 2A0 + A1 1 s op = Opening stress, S max = Maximum stress level The fracture is taken as the condition at which Kmax KIC.The N f so obtained from the solution of Equation (2) depends on several monotonic strength parameters like modulus of elasticity ( E ), yield strength ( σ y ), and fracture parameters like threshold stress intensity factor ( K th ), critical stress intensity factor ( K IC ).It is well established that all such strength parameters are random variable and follows normal distribution. Due to the scattered nature of these variables fatigue life obtained can also be assumed as a random variable. The error in estimating the fatigue life can be obtained from [8-10] 1 R = ± φ N. t. u p ψ 1 (5) n (2)
3 s where φ N = and X + u pψ s n 1 Γ n 1 2 ψ = 2 n Γ 2 where µ and σ are the population mean and population standard deviation, respectively, and u p is the normal deviate corresponding to the probability of survival p and n is the sample size. In this study the scattered behavior of fatigue life and crack growth is incorporated by randomizing the various fatigue parameters considering them as statistically independent random variables following normal distribution with mean values X and standard deviation s. Equations 1-5 µ used in the solution can be obtained from have been solved to predict the fatigue life. The population mean ( ) X µ X = X + K. s (6) K is a factor whose value varies between -3 to 3 for normal distribution. In the present investigation K is randomly generated. The fatigue life corresponds to the life with minimum error obtained from the equation 5. All computations are done using MATLAB 7.0. The detailed procedure is explained in reference [2]. Brief procedure is presented below. Algorithm 1. Estimate the statistical mean of model parameters from the experimental mean and standard deviation. For computing these generate random number K (Equation (6)). The limiting values of K are ± Select type of specimen geometry (SEN, CT, CCT etc) and estimate statistical mean values of geometry parameter similar to step If load history is not given generate the load history. The procedure is explained in reference [8-10]. 4. Compute crack opening parameters. 5. Solve Equation (1) or (2) and estimate fatigue life or crack length. 6. Repeat steps 1 to 5 if sample size (number of predicted life) is less than Estimate Error from Equation (5) for a given probability and confidence level. 8. If Error determined at step 7 is less than pre assumed tolerable error, write fatigue life as the mean value of all lives determined and corresponding stress level, otherwise go to step 1. The material properties used in the fatigue life simulation are presented in Table 1. Table 1.

In the present paper only few results have been presented. The predicted results are also compared with the available experimental fatigue life, taken from the literature [1-28]. The fatigue life predictions shown in Figs.1-7 are based on minimum tolerable error of 5%. It is seen that the difference between the experimental and predicted lives are less at higher stress level compared to lower stress level. This demonstrates that higher scatter band exists at lower stress level compared to higher stress level. It is seen that in all cases studied in the present investigation the percentage difference is less than 5% for most of the stress levels and material.
