MEAN STRESS EFFECTS ON FATIGUE CRACK GROWTH AND FAILURE IN A RAIL STEEL 1. Increasing R (ratio of minimum to maximum stress) was found to both accelerate cracking and reduce the critical crack size at instability (alternating or pulsating loads? Or nearing fracture?) 2. The equation of Forman et al. relating crack growth rate to ∆K and R gave the best fit. It is used to predict life in the finite range of S-N curve. 3. Pulsating load = zero-to-tension loading 4.
