The effective stress intensity factor range obtained via the Christopher– James–Patterson model, which provides an effective rationalization of fatigue crack growth rates, is separated into two components representing the elastic and retardation components to assess shielding phenomena on growing fatigue cracks. For this analysis, fatigue crack growth tests were performed on Compact-Tension specimens manufactured in pure grade 2 titanium for different stress ratio levels, and digital image correlation and thermoelastic measurements were made for different crack lengths. A good agreement (~2% average deviation) was found between the resultsobtained via thermoelastic stress analysis and digital image correlation indicating the validity of theChristopher–James–Patterson model to investigate phenomena in fracture mechanics where plasticityplays an important role. The results show the importance of considering crack-shielding effects usingthe Christopher–James–Patterson model beyond considering an exclusive crack closure influence.engFatigue crack growthCJP modelCrack tip parametersCrack tip shieldingDigital image correlationThermoelastic stress analysisinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article621info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
