A novel parameter is suggested for evaluating the fatigue crack growth rate in carbon steels. Fatigue crack propagation tests of an annealed O.42% carbon steel were carried out under different conditions to investigate the relationship between this dominating parameter and the crack opening displacement (COD). A new equation of fatigue crack growth rate is formulated in terms of the suggested parameter. The physical meanings of the material parameters in this equation are explored experimentally. Considering the relation of crack growth and deformation properties, a simple and applicable method is proposed to evaluate the fatigue crack growth rate. It is also observed that the material parameters in the fatigue crack growth rate equation of carbon steels are related linearly to the material strength. The results are in a good agreement with experimental results.
