Mechanism of crack branching in the fatigue crack growth path of 2324-T39 Aluminium alloy

The crack growth behavior in 2324-T39 aluminium alloy was experimentally investigated. Two types of crack branching were observed. The mechanism of an uncommon crack branching which results from the link up of secondary crack with the main crack was focused on. The crack paths were observed with o...
