Abstract

The stable crack growth in thin steel sheets is the topic of this paper. The crack opening was observed using a videoextensometry system, allowing the crack extension determination. JR-curve and δR-curve were established from obtained data. The ductile tearing properties of different thin sheets of steel were determined, including the impact of the specimen orientation, from test performed on compact tension specimens loaded under two conditions. The effect of the material, the rolling direction, and loading rate on the crack growth resistance of thin steel sheets was analyzed. In addition to the crack growth resistance, J-integral values for crack initiation were also estimated. The relation between J i and J0.2 was assessed using the basic mathematical and statistical methods. This relation was described by a linear regression model.
