متن کاملOn an Eigendeformation Approach to Brittle Fracture
The paper presents a numerical implementation of a novel approximation scheme for Griffith’s theory of brittle fracture recently proposed in [1]. The total potential energy of a brittle body (including bulk and surface terms) is variationally approximated by a family of functionals, depending on a small penalty parameter ε. The (two-field) approximating functionals have as arguments the displac...
متن کاملAn eigenerosion approach to brittle fracture
The present work is concerned with the verification and validation of a variant of the eigenfracture scheme of Schmidt et al. (2009) based on element erosion, which we refer to as eigenerosion. Eigenerosion is derived from the general eigenfracture scheme by restricting the eigendeformations in a binary sense: they can be either zero, in which case the local behavior is elastic, or they can be ...
متن کاملRevisiting Energy Release Rates in Brittle Fracture
We revisit in a 2d setting the notion of energy release rate, which plays a pivotal role in brittle fracture. Through a blow-up method, we extend that notion to crack patterns which are merely closed sets connected to the crack tip. As an application, we demonstrate that, modulo a simple meta-stability principle, a moving crack cannot generically kink while growing continuously in time. This la...
متن کاملNumerical investigation of dynamic brittle fracture via gradient damage models
Background: Gradient damage models can be acknowledged as a unified framework of dynamic brittle fracture. As a phase-field approach to fracture, they are gaining popularity over the last few years in the computational mechanics community. This paper concentrates on a better understanding of these models. We will highlight their properties during the initiation and propagation phases of defect ...
