Current Attempt in Progress
A large plate is fabricated from a steel alloy that has a plane strain fracture toughness of 84MPam2(76.45ksi102). If the plate is exposed to a tensile stress of 363MPa (52650) during use, determine the minimum length of a surface crack that will lead to fracture. Assume a value of 1.19 for Y.
