Abstract
A previously proposed equivalent driving force model was modified to account for crack closure for modeling stress ratio, R, dependence of fatigue crack growth in near-threshold regime. A new fatigue crack growth driving force model was established in the form of ΔK⋅f(R), where the f(R) includes both crack closure and mean stress contributions, and well informs the shift from dominance of stress intensity factor range ΔK to maximum stress intensity factor Kmax with increasing R. The model was validated widely with sound agreement between modeling results and experimental data.
