Abstract

The effect of mixed mode I/III loading on the fracture toughness of Armco iron at 77 K was studied. The results showed that the mixed mode I/III fracture toughness increases with increasing loading angle or mode III loading contribution. This behaviour was in contrast to the behaviour of Armco iron at room temperature wherein the fracture toughness was found to decrease significantly with increasing mode III loading contribution. The difference in behaviour was explained on the basis of the difference in the fracture mechanisms at the two temperatures as well as on the nature of the deformation fields ahead of mixed mode I/III crack.
