van Leeuwen, H.P. (author)The literature concerning the application of fracture mechanics to the growth of creep cracks is discussed. As an introduction it is shown that linear elastic fracture mechanics have been applied successfully to the residual strength of brittle materials crack growth due to stress corrosion and crack growth due to fatigue. Next the methods are...report 1983

Wanhill, R.J.H. (author)A study was made of environmental fatigue crack propagation in 2.5 mm thick Ti-6A1-4V sheet conforming to AMS 4911, and 2.2 mm thick IMI 3l8 conforming to BS TA 10. The environments were dry argon, normal air, distilled water and 3.5 ^ aqueous NaCl. There were three alloy/orientation combinations: Ti-6A1-4V L-T, IMI 3l8 L-T and IMI 318 T-L. Test...report 1975
