Correlation of localised thermal shock to isothermal biaxial crack growth rates in thin plates of AISI 316 stainless steel

The work presented covers numerical analyses of edge-cracked thin plates of austenitic stainless steel, AISI 316, loaded with transient thermal downshock. Further to this isothermal centre-cracked plates loaded under isothermal biaxial conditions are modelled. Crack growth rates are then applied to...
