Investigation of the Enhancement Interactions between Double Parallel Cracks on Fatigue Growth Behaviors

In this paper, interactions of double parallel cracks were studied by performing experiments and numerical simulations. Fatigue crack propagation tests were carried out to measure crack growth rates in the specimens with double parallel cracks or a single crack. Finite element method was adopted to...
