Abstract

AVT-6 titanium alloy rolled sheet, which is initially isotropic and subject to kinematic hardening, is used as an example to analyze the effect of kinematic hardening on crack growth resistance under uniaxial cyclic loading. Crack growth resistance is characterized by the number of cycles to failure, critical crack length, and critical stress intensity factor. The subject of study is plane specimens with an edge notch. It is shown that prestrain changes the anisotropy of the specimens, which is determined as the ratio of the crack growth resistance in the rolling direction to that in the transverse direction. The crack path under a load applied at an angle to the axes of anisotropy is studied
