**Structural Component Analysis**A structural component in the form of a flat plate, with a thickness of 20.8 mm, is constructed from metal with the following properties:- Yield strength: 533 MPa- Critical fracture toughness: 22.0 MPa-m\(^{1/2}\)**Problem:**Assume that a crack develops in the plate. Given that the geometry of the crack results in a \( Y \) value of 1.5, determine the critical crack length if the design stress is 0.3 times the yield strength.**Equations:**1. **Stress Concentration Factor**: \[ K_t = \frac{\sigma_m}{\sigma_0} = 2 \left( \frac{a}{\rho_t} \right)^{1/2} \]2. **Fracture Toughness**: \[ K_c = Y \sigma_c \sqrt{\pi a} \]**Explanation:**- \( \sigma_m \) is the maximum stress.- \( \sigma_0 \) is the nominal stress.- \( a \) is the crack length.- \( \rho_t \) is the radius of the notch tip; not specified but may affect stress concentration.- \( K_c \) is the critical stress intensity factor.- \( Y \) is a geometric factor for the crack.- \( \sigma_c \) is the critical stress (which is 0.3 times the yield strength in this problem).To solve for the critical crack length, substitute the appropriate values and solve the equation for \( a \). This analysis helps in understanding the parameters affecting material failure, aiding in safe and efficient design.
