A manufacturing process that unintentionally introduces cracks to the surface of a part was used to produce load-bearing components. The design requires that the component be able to withstand a stress of 450MPa. A component failed catastrophically in service. You are asked to do a failure analysis to determine whether the component failed due to an overload in service or flaws from the manufacturing process. The manufacturer claims that the components were polished to remove the cracks and inspected to ensure that no surface cracks were larger than 0.5mm, which means the component could stand a stress greater than 450MPa. The manufacturer believes the component failed due to operator error. It has been independently verified that the 5cm diameter cylindrical part was subjected to a axial tensile load of 1x106N. The component is made from a material, which has a fracture toughness of and an ultimate 75Pamtensile strength of 600MPa. Assume Y=1.12 for the external cracks. Who is at fault for the component failure, the manufacturer or the operator, or both? Show your work to support your answer.
