Crack path prediction in anisotropic brittle materials.
A force balance condition to predict quasistatic crack paths in anisotropic brittle materials is derived from an analysis of diffuse interface continuum models that describe both short-scale failure and macroscopic linear elasticity. The path is uniquely determined by the directional anisotropy of the fracture energy, independent of details of the failure process. The derivation exploits the gr...
متن کاملPropagation of Crack in Linear Elastic Materials with Considering Crack Path Correction Factor
Modeling of crack propagation by a finite element method under mixed mode conditions is of prime importance in the fracture mechanics. This article describes an application of finite element method to the analysis of mixed mode crack growth in linear elastic fracture mechanics. Crack - growth process is simulated by an incremental crack-extension analysis based on the maximum principal stress c...
متن کاملAnisotropic mesh adaptation for quasistatic crack propagation in brittle materials
The numerical simulation of quasistatic fracturing of brittle material, where no predefined crack path is imposed, is a challenging problem. In particular, we deal with the Francfort-Marigo model which requires the minimization of the well-known nonconvex and nonsmooth Mumford-Shah functional. To deal with a smoother problem which eases the minimization process of the energy, we consider the Γ-...
متن کاملCrack initiation in brittle materials
In this paper we study the crack initiation in a hyper-elastic body governed by a Griffith’s type energy. We prove that, during a load process through a time dependent boundary datum of the type t → tg(x) and in absence of strong singularities (this is the case of homogeneous isotropic materials) the crack initiation is brutal, i.e., a big crack appears after a positive time ti > 0. On the cont...
متن کاملFrom rate-dependent to quasi-static brittle crack propagation
On the base of many experimental results, e.g. [18], [19], [21], [12], the object of our analysis is a rate-dependent model for the propagation of a crack in brittle materials. Our goal is a mathematical study of the evolution equation in the geometries of the ’Single Edge Notch Tension’ (SENT) and of the ’Compact Tension’ (ASTM-CT). Besides existence and uniqueness, emphasis is placed on the r...
