Abstract

The paper considers the effect of various stress concentrators on processes of damage accumulation, initiation and propagation of crack in steel (steel 3) samples during uniaxial tensile. In the middle of the samples there was a transverse welded joint or a hole with a diameter of 5 mm. The acoustic-emission testing results showed that weight content of location impulses (Wi) in the clusters of low, middle and high energy level and criteria parameters value Wi at the stages of the samples destruction have similar pattern of change despite the various types of concentrators, stress-strain material diagrams, pattern of damage accumulation, number of registered acoustic emission (AE) events and its registration activity.
