Building the Nano composites for getting material with combinational properties and improving properties of currently used material has been taken significant attention. One of the ways of building Nano composites is using a method known as powder metallurgy. Because with this method not only wastes are decreased to minimum but we can also mix the materials with high melting point with the materials with low melting point which is a difficult thing to do with foundry method. In this research titanium alloy for improvement in its mechanical properties is mixed with silicon carbide reinforcing. Knowing the fact that silicon carbide is in Nano scale these two materials start building Nano composites. The powder metallurgy method is the best way for mixing these two materials together. To make sure that the properties of the made alloy is similar to the foundry alloy, the static compression methods are used. For comparison the results, two factors such as the Nano silicon carbide percentage and the static compression pressure are. Also, Density experiment, observation of grain boundaries using a scanning electron microscope, pressure test and the hardness experiment was done on it.

The stress distribution on the tip of the cracks and the stress intensity factor on them are the main courses in the fracture mechanic. The stress intensity factor of the cracks with the different load exited and the different geometry are listed in the tables of the standard books. In all of them, the cracks are located in the central point of the plates. In the uniform edge loaded case, the crack position is not effect on the stress intensity factor of the crack but in the case that the load is concentrated the stress distribution different from point to another point and therefore the stress intensity factor of the crack, is changed with the crack displacement from the point of the exited load. In this paper, the stress intensity factor changes with the distance of it from the edge of the semi-infinite plate with the edge crack is investigated. A new relation is introduced from the simulation solution with the Abaqus. Then, similar relation from analytical solution from the theory of the linear fracture mechanic was proposed. This relation was determined from the stress distribution calculation in the plate with the pointed load with the analytical solution from the elasticity theory. This two relations were compared with another and finally the more accurate relation was introduced as the relation of the stress intensity factor with the distance from the edge of the plate.
