  text: <jats:p>In many areas of product manufacturing constructions consist of individual
    components and metal sheets that are joined together to form complex structures.
    A simple and industrial common method for joining dissimilar and coated materials
    is clinching. During the joining process and due to the service load cracks can
    occur in the area of the joint, propagate due to cyclic loading and consequently
    lead to structural failure. For the prevention of these damage cases, first of
    all knowledge about the fracture mechanical material parameters regarding the
    original material state of the sheet metals used within the clinching process
    are essential.Within the scope of this paper experimental and numerical preliminary
    investigations regarding the fracture mechanical behavior of sheet metals used
    within the clinching process are presented. Due to the low thickness of 1.5 mm
    of the material sheets, the development of a new specimen is necessary to determine
    the crack growth rate curve including the fracture mechanical parameters like
    the threshold against crack growth ΔK<jats:sub>I,th</jats:sub> and the fracture
    toughness K<jats:sub>IC</jats:sub> of the base material HCT590X. For the experimental
    determination of the crack growth rate curve the numerical calculation of the
    geometry factor function as well as the calibration function of this special specimen
    are essential. After the experimental validation of the numerically determined
    calibration function, crack growth rate curves are determined for the stress ratios
    <jats:italic>R</jats:italic> = 0.1 and <jats:italic>R</jats:italic> = 0.3 to examine
    the mean stress sensitivity. In addition, the different rolling directions of
    0° and 90° in relation to the initial crack are taken into account in order to
    investigate the influence of the anisotropy due to rolling.</jats:p>
