5. A large center-cracked plate containing an initial crack of length 2a=10 [mm] is subjected to a constant amplitude cyclic tensile stress ranging between a minimum value of 150 [MPa] and a maximum of 250 [MPa]. Assuming the fatigue crack growth rate is governed by the equation da 0.42 10-"(AK) (m/cycle) dN (1) Calculate the crack growth rate when the crack length has the following values 2a=10 mm, 30 mm, 50 mm. (2) Assuming further that the relevant fracture toughness is 60 MPa Vm, estimate the number of cycles to failure.
