DOMAIN-INDEPENDENT VALUES OF THE J-INTEGRAL FOR CRACK IN WELDS SUBJECT TO MODE-I LOADING
This paper describes an approach for computing domain-independent values of the J-integral for crack in welds subject to Mode-I loading. For the analysis of crack in welds, residual stress analysis and fracture mechanics analysis must be performed sequentially. In this study, residual stresses in welds are obtained by carrying out three-dimensional thermal elasticplastic FE analysis. Then, FE analysis method which is able to calculate domain-independent values of the J-integral for crack in three-dimensional residual stress bearing bodies is developed to evaluate the J-integral for mode-I centre-crack in welds when mechanical Mode- I loading is superimposed on the residual stress field. It is shown that the J value for the case when mechanical stresses are superimposed on the residual stresses is larger than that for the case when only residual stresses are present.
