THE influence of the sheet thickness on fatigue-crack propagation was studied on specimens of 2024-T3 alclad sheet of five thicknesses, viz. 0.6, 1, 2, 3 and 4 mm. It turned out that cracks grow faster in thicker sheets. The different states of stress at the crack tip probably cause the thickness effect.
