This study aims to investigate the mixed-mode fracture behavior of stiffened plates with inclined semi-elliptical surface cracks (ISSCs). A new numerical model is developed to analyze the fracture behavior using normalized stress intensity factors (SIFs). The findings show that stiffened plates have a significant restraint effect on large surface cracks, especially at the surface point.
This study aims to investigate the mixed-mode fracture behavior of stiffened plates with inclined semi-elliptical surface cracks (ISSCs). For this purpose, a new numerical model is developed for the fracture analysis using FRANC 3D in combination with ABAQUS. Normalized stress intensity factors (SIFs) are used to analyze the fracture behavior at the surface and deepest points of the surface crack. Additionally, an arrest parameter psi is proposed to quantify the level of crack arrest under mixed-mode conditions. Then, a thorough investigation is conducted to examine the fracture behavior of stiffened plates with ISSCs, focusing on the effects of aspect ratio, relative depth, spacing ratio, stiffness coefficient, crack angle, and loading mode. The findings indicate that the restraint effect of stiffeners on the fracture of large surface cracks is significantly stronger compared to small surface cracks. It is also identified that the restraint effect is more pronounced at the surface point than at the deepest point. Finally, a set of novel formulas is derived to evaluate the mixed-mode SIFs in stiffened plates through statistical analysis of the results.
