Abstract
This technical note discusses several three-dimensional models for mixed-mode fatigue crack growth that were developed recently by Bian and coauthors [1-5]. However, these models are found being formulated from a generally incorrect three-dimensional crack-front stress field for embedded elastic elliptical cracks. The corresponding correct crack-front stress field for the elliptical cracks is thus presented, and then the three-dimensional fatigue crack growth models are corrected and expressed in much simpler functions.
