SYSWELD is the leading tool for the simulation of heat treatment. Is there any crack risk occurring during the. Linear elastic fracture mechanics gives a good estimate of the crack driving force for very short defects (confirming the absence of elastic follow up), but is conservative for longer defects, overestimating the peak driving force by 20%. The R6 estimates, which incorporate plasticity corrections, are more conservative than LEFM, overestimating the peak crack driving force by up to 60%.
