K solutions for internal surface cracks in pressurized cylinders are compared, including Smith's photoelastic results, Hussain's collocation and compliance results, and Underwood's estimates. Fatigue crack growth observations from cannon tubes are described, particularly in relation to surface crack-growth and multiple cracks. A method is proposed for describing quantitatively the effect of residual stress on K in cylinders with shallow cracks. The combination of compressive residual stress with applied stress reduces Delta K and thus increases fatigue life. (Se)
