Abstract
Elastic-plastic J-integral and plastic limit load were described by finite element (FE) analysis for single hole-edge crack in plate under far field biaxial load. In this paper, the effect of biaxial load ratio (from -1 to 1) on elastic-plastic J-integral and plastic limit load was studied, the values of coefficient h1 for J-integral engineering estimation formulas were given and the effect of material hardening on plastic limit load was discussed. The result obtained from this work provides reference for fracture evaluation, so it can be used in engineering accurately and expediently.
