Plane strain fracture toughness

Reference no: EM1384740

A large plate is fabricated from a steel alloy that has a plane strain fracture toughness of 55 MPa1m 150 ksi1in.2.

If, during service use, the plate is exposed to a tensile stress of 200 MPa (29,000 psi), determine the minimum length of a surface crack that will lead to fracture. Assume a value of 1.0 for Y.
