The role of elastic anisotropy, length scale and crystallographic slip in fatigue crack nucleation
This latest paper of a series demonstrates fundamental insight into fatigue crack nucleation in engineering alloys. The work was a continuing collaboration with Nippon Steel and Rolls-Royce resulting in sponsorship of industrial scientists to Dunne’s labs, played a pivotal role in the award of a Royal Society Industry Fellowship to David Rugg[1], and to the election of Dunne to a Fellowship of the Royal Academy of Engineering. The work was presented at a keynote at IUTAM (International Union Theoretical Applied Mechanics) conference (Paris2012), and resulted in a joint review paper with McDowell(USA)[2] in crack nucleation.
