What Does CGR Stand For?
CGR stands for Crack Growth Rate
CGR, or Crack Growth Rate, refers to the rate at which a crack propagates through a material under stress, typically measured in millimeters per cycle or per hour. It is a critical parameter in materials science and engineering, as it helps assess the durability and reliability of materials and structures subjected to cyclic loading. Understanding CGR is essential for predicting the lifespan of components, improving design safety, and developing maintenance strategies in various industries, including aerospace, automotive, and civil engineering.
