Abstract

The paper discusses experimental research to analyze how the notch-width ratio (2a/w) impacts Electromagnetic Radiation (EMR) emission parameters at tensile fracture in C35000 brass. The EMR emission signals during tensile fracture were captured using a copper chip antenna and stored in an oscilloscope for further analysis. The EMR parameters and mechanical parameters at fracture showed a smooth correlation. Investigating the association between the EMR parameters and the plastic zone radius formed before the crack tip may help develop an innovative tool for crack growth monitoring. The interrelation between the EMR energy release rate and the Elastic strain energy release rate may help create an innovative method for assessing fracture toughness, a fundamental property of metallic materials. The EMR energy release rate exhibited a parabolic relationship with an analytical correlation of stacking fault energy. Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) examined the fractured specimen's microstructure. A thorough examination of the relationship between dislocations, EMR characteristics, and real-time applications could be a novel technique for understanding material behaviour in detail.
