In Situ Measurements for Plastic Zone Ahead of Crack Tip and Continuous Strain Variation under Cyclic Loading Using Digital Image Correlation Method

Fatigue crack is one of the most common damage forms for aeronautical aluminum alloy. With crack propagation, the strain fields of the whole object surface and plastic zone (PZ) ahead of the crack tip are changing continuously. For most metallic materials, the behavior of PZ around the crack tip and...
