Abstract

The plastic energy dissipation was determined in the centre cracked thin sheet specimen of 2024-T3 aluminium alloy, with different widths and crack length to width ratios. The plastic energy dissipation rate was found to be linearly related to the stable crack growth, but the slope decreased significantly with increase in crack length. The experimental results from literature are compared for verification.
