Abstract
The plastic deformation left in the wake of a crack causes fracture surfaces to be pressed together by compressive residual stresses thus producing the well-known crack closure phenomenon which can affect the crack propagation rates whenever the minimum load in the cycle is insufficient to open the crack.
