The influence of anisotropy of crystallographic origin on both fracture toughness and the rate ofstage-II ductile fatigue crack growth in textured metals is discussed in terms of a plane-strain smallgeometry change solution for plastic non-hardening materials (a Prandtl-type slip-line field solutionaccounting for anisotropy). Results corresponding to FCC or BCC metals sliding, respectively, on{111}〈 110 〉or {110}〈 111 〉systems are presented. Remarkable effects of both texture toughening andfatigue crack growth rate anisotropy are predicted. Stronger effects are anticipated in moreanisotropic metals (HCP).
