摘要
A criterion is proposed for brittle fracture analysis in rounded-tip V-notched components. This criterion, called RV-MTS, is developed based on the maximum tangential stress (MTS) criterion proposed earlier for investigating mixed mode brittle fracture in sharp cracks. Using the RV-MTS criterion, a set of fracture curves is presented based on the notch stress intensity factors (NSIFs) for predicting mixed mode and also pure mode II fracture toughness of rounded-tip V-notches. The criterion is also able to predict fracture initiation angles under mixed mode loading. The validity of the criterion is evaluated by several fracture tests performed on the rounded-tip V-notched Brazilian disc (RV-BD) specimens made of PMMA. A good agreement is shown to exist between the theoretical predictions and the experimental results for various notch opening angles and different notch radii. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd.
