Fatigue crack propagation of aluminium alloy 7049-OA has been studied by non-linear finite element business-oriented software ABAQUS, and elastic-plastic finite element models of static fatigue crack and dynamic fatigue crack of center crack panel (CCP) specimens are also built. Based on the finite element computation results, the differences of stress and crack opening displacement around crack tip of static crack model have been compared with those of dynamic crack model. The compared results showed that the finite element computation results of dynamic crack model can be replaced by the results calculated by the static crack model. Fatigue crack tip parameters of aluminium alloy CCP specimens can be calculated by elastic-plastic finite element model of static crack. This is an effective method to cut down the computation expense and promote the computational efficiency.

In this paper, a detailed elastic-plastic finite element analysis of the effect of the compressive loading on crack tip plasticity is studied based on the material’s kinematic hardening model. Five centre-cracked panel specimens with different crack lengths are analyzed. The analysis shows that in a tension-compression loading the maximum spread of the crack tip reverse plastic zone increases with the increase of the compressive stress and the near crack tip opening displacement decreases with the increase of the compressive stress at the same nominal stress intensity factor. The applied compressive stress is the main factor controlling the near crack tip parameters.
