A new processing method is proposed for producing Alumina ceramic heads for total hip replacement. The new method has been shown to reduce the surface critical flaw size from 4 µm to 2.5 µm. If the alumina has a plane strain fracture toughness of 5.4 MPa.m0.5 and currently is found to fail at a stress of 200 MPa what will the difference in failure stress be with the reduction in flaw size? (This question has only one correct answer) Select one: а. 253 MPа O b. A decrease in failure stress of 42 MPa С. An increase in failure stress of 53 MPa O d. 158 MPa

small crack, 4mm deep, is found on the edge of a large, thick plate structure. The plate is continuously subjected to a uniform cyclic tensile stress (in the direction perpendicular to the crack plane) which varies from 0 MPa to 100 MPa and back to 0 MPa every 40 seconds. If the next inspection is to take place in 30 days, would it be safe to delay the replacement or repair of the plate until that time? The stress intensity factor, KI, for this type of crack is related to the nominal stress, G, and the crack length, a, via the relationship is K, = 1.12a Va %3D For the plate material, the yield stress is 800 MPa, the fracture toughness is 50 MN/m2 and threshold stress intensity factor range is 6 MN/m3/2, The fatigue-crack growth rate per cycle for the material, da/dN, can be defined by: 3/2 da / dN = 2.8 x 10-12 (AK,) ^PY (m/cycle) Where AK1 has unit MN/m e 8:34 /

Which of the following statements are true? (This question has more than one correct answer) a. You should always apply safety factors when setting a materials specification b. You should always design in small radii of curvature at profile changes c. Crack propagation in ductile materials occurs when the stresses at the crack tip are greater or equal to the yield strength of the material d. The stress concentration factors for ductile materials are greater than expected e. The stress concentration factors for brittle materials are less than expected f. Crack propagation in brittle materials occurs when the stresses at the crack tip are greater or equal to the failure strength of the material
