Analysis of failure of axle housing of crane truck with fracture mechanics

The failure of an axle housing in a crane truck has been successfully analyzed with the aid of fracture mechanics. The cause of failure was the field addition of stop blocks welded to the axle housing. The time from crack penetration of the axle housing to final failure was too short for the presenc...

Zusammenfassung:The failure of an axle housing in a crane truck has been successfully analyzed with the aid of fracture mechanics. The cause of failure was the field addition of stop blocks welded to the axle housing. The time from crack penetration of the axle housing to final failure was too short for the presence of such a crack to have been detected by routine maintenance.
