Suppose that a wing component on an aircraft is fabricated

Chapter 8, Problem 8.7

(choose chapter or problem)

Suppose that a wing component on an aircraft is fabricated from an aluminum alloy that has a plane-strain fracture toughness of 26.0 MPa1m (23.7 ksi1in.). It has been determined that fracture results at a stress of 112 MPa (16,240 psi) when the maximum internal crack length is 8.6 mm (0.34 in.). For this same component and alloy, compute the stress level at which fracture will occur for a critical internal crack length of 6.0 mm (0.24 in.).
