Threshold-based quasi-static brittle damage evolution
We introduce models for static and quasi-static damage in elastic materials, based on a strain threshold, and then investigate the relationship between these threshold models and the energy-based models introduced in [17] and [15]. A somewhat surprising result is that, while classical solutions for the energy models are also threshold solutions, this is not the case for nonclassical solutions, ...
متن کاملExistence of Strong Solutions for Quasi-static Evolution in Brittle Fracture
This paper is devoted to prove the existence of strong solutions for a brittle fracture model of quasi-static crack propagation in the two dimensional antiplane setting. As usual, the time continuous evolution is obtained as the limit of a discrete in time evolution by letting the time step tend to zero. The analysis rests on a density lower bound estimate for quasi-minimizers of Mumford-Shah t...
متن کاملQuasi-static Evolution in Brittle Fracture: the Case of Bounded Solutions
The main steps of the proof of the existence result for the quasi-static evolution of cracks in brittle materials, obtained in [7] in the vector case and for a general quasiconvex elastic energy, are presented here under the simplifying assumption that the minimizing sequences involved in the problem are uniformly bounded in L.
متن کاملAmbrosio-tortorelli Approximation of Quasi-static Evolution of Brittle Fractures
We define a notion of quasistatic evolution for the elliptic approximation of the Mumford-Shah functional proposed by Ambrosio and Tortorelli. Then we prove that this regular evolution converges to a quasi static growth of brittle fractures in linearly elastic bodies.
متن کاملScaling of Static Fracture of Quasi-Brittle Structures: Strength, Lifetime, and Fracture Kinetics
The paper reviews a recently developed finite chain model for the weakest-link statistics of strength, lifetime, and size effect of quasi-brittle structures, which are the structures in which the fracture process zone size is not negligible compared to the cross section size. The theory is based on the recognition that the failure probability is simple and clear only on the nanoscale since the ...
