Abstract: A detailed finite element analysis of stable crack growth in power law hardening materials is performed under mode-I plane stress condition. A nodal release procedure and a substructure method are used, combining with a very fine mesh near the crack tip. Detailed numerical results for the near-tip stress and deformation fields, plastic zone, crack opening displacement, propagation resistance, etc. are presented and comparisons are made with existing analyses.

Key words: crack propagat ion, finite element method, crack arrest
