Abstract
The lug is the critical component of lug joints, and one of its failure mode is the tension failure at hole edges. In the present paper, the fatigue crack growth simulation of a semi-elliptical crack located in the lug net cross-section, at one of the two hole edges, is carried out by employing a theoretical model based on the Paris law. The lug sizes, loading conditions and crack configurations are assumed in accordance with those related to some experimental tests available in the literature, performed on lugs of PolyMethylMethAcrylate under pulsating tension.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
