Abstract
In this paper, a nondestructive evaluation by sensor Eddy current is used as a tool to control cracks and microcracks in materials. A simulation by a numerical approach such as the finite element method is employed to detect cracks in materials and eventually to study their propagation using a crucial parameter such as a Stress Intensity Factor (SIF). This method has emerged as one of the most efficient techniques for prospectin cracks in materials, evaluating SIFs and analyzing crack's growth in the context of linear elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM). This technique uses extrapolation of displacements from results compared with those obtained by the integral interaction. On the other hand, crack'sgrowth is analyzed as a model by combining the maximum circumferential stress criteria with the critical plane for predicting the direction of crack growth. In this research, a constant crack growth increment is determined using the classical Paris's model, or the so-called modified Paris's model. It is also shown herein that stress intensity factors needed for these models are calculated using the domain form of the J-integral interactions.
