Review of ASTM Symposium on Surface Crack Growth: Models, Experiments, and Structures

Abstract

An overview of the ASTM Symposium on Surface Cracks: Models, Experiments, and Structures, held on 25 April 1988 in Sparks, Nevada, is presented. The background and objective for the symposium are described and the technical papers presented and published in the proceedings are summarized. The papers are in two general categories: (a) results of analytical models and experiments of surface-cracked specimens and components subjected to monotonic loading, and (b) experiments and analyses of fatigue-crack growth of surface cracks.
