On the calculation of stress intensity factorK for frame components

Abstract

The stress intensity factorK in the tip of crack which is in the corner of the frame component has been calculated indirectly by means of numeric calculation ofJ Integral. Some laws and relationships among the stress intensity factorK, the applied loads and the crack length for this kind of components have been discovered for the first time. The calculating formula forK has been deduced, the criticalK has been calculated with the formula, that is 5 811.56–6 122.58 MPa · mm^1/2. The conclusions reached in this paper are of great referential and practical value for simplifying the calculation of stress intensity factorK for this type of components.
