Effect of temperature gradient on crack initiation

Compact tension (CT) specimens of pressure vessel steel A533B have been subjected to linear distributions of temperature along the crack line. The temperature dependence of fracture toughness for the A533B steel creates a fracture toughness gradient in such a specimen. The specimens simulated an i...
