FIGURE 5.13 Mechanism for ductile crack growth: (a) initial state, (b) void growth at the crack tip, and, (c)
coalescence of voids with the crack tip.
FIGURE 5.14 Stress and strain ahead of a blunted crack tip, determined by finite element analysis. Taken
from McMeeking, R.M. and Parks, D.M., ‘‘On Criteria for J-Dominance of Crack-Tip Fields in Large-Scale
Yielding.” ASTM STP 668, American Society for Testing and Materials, Philadelphia, PA, 1979, pp. 175–194.
