Effect of the Crack Tip Bifurcation on the Plasticity-Induced Fatigue Propagation in Metallic Materials

This article deals with the influence of the crack path branching (at the micro level) on the plasticity-induced fatigue crack growth. With regard to this, a modeling by means of the finite element method was performed considering a cracked panel subjected to tension with different symmetric and asy...
