Abstract

Fatigue crack growth in intermetallics and their composites published in the literature have been examined in the light of the new concepts developed by the authors. It is shown that the two parametric approach can adequately account for the observed behavior without resorting to an extraneous factor such as crack closure. Implication of the two parametric approach in design is discussed.
