Abstract
The research investigates the effect of variable notch-width ratios on mechanical and electromagnetic radiation (EMR) parameters during the tensile fracture of silicon steel. The primary purpose is to comprehend the plastic deformation and crack propagation at an atomic level. The mechanical and EMR parameters chosen for analysis were correlated. The EMR energy release rate correlated well with the elastic strain energy release rate. The good fit between the EMR parameters and the plastic zone radius is a novel method to determine the crack growth behaviour of metals. A theoretical model of dislocation predicted the nature of EMR signals at fracture. A reasonable agreement between cross-slip energy with maximum stress at crack instability, the elastic strain energy release rate, and the EMR energy release rate will help assess the dislocation dynamics of metals. The EMR amplitude was sensitive to varying strain rates.
