Paris' Law Coefficients for Steel

AI Thread Summary
A user completed a fatigue lab for a CT specimen of steel and seeks to compare their computed Paris' Law coefficients with published data for error analysis. They are struggling to find values for the coefficients C and m, regardless of steel alloy type. Another participant expresses interest in the same information, suggesting a possible connection between their studies. A helpful link to an MIT study containing relevant Paris' Law coefficients is shared for future reference. The discussion emphasizes the importance of persistence in research.

I've recently completed a fatigue lab for a CT specimen of steel, and I wanted to compare my computed values of Paris' Law coefficients with previously published data for error analysis. Does anyone know where I can find the values for C and m? Repeated Google searches have born me no fruit. It doesn't matter what type of steel alloy as we were never given any information in regards to what type of steel we were working with. Any help is highly appreciated. Thank you all in advance.

Persistence always pays off. Here's a link to a study done by MIT with the Paris' Law coefficients on page 7, just in case anyone needs it for future reference. :smile:
