Abstract
The stress intensity factor of surface crack under cyclic loading is calculated by using the Line-Spring Moding and ADINA. The method of presenting Line-Spring Elements is proposed for the first time to simulate the fatigue growth of surface crack, and corresponding technique and software are developed.
