Abstract
Fatigue experiments were carried out in laboratory air using an extruded magnesium alloy, AZ31. The crack propagation behavior was analyzed using a modified linear elastic fracture mechanics parameter, M. The relation crack propagation rate vs. M parameter was found to be useful in predicting fatigue lives at different R ratios. Good agreements between the estimated and experimental results at each of stress ratios were obtained.
