Overlapping Domain Problems in the Crack Theory with Possible Contact between Crack Faces
نویسندگان
چکیده
The paper is concerned with the analysis of a new class of overlapping domain problems for elastic bodies having cracks. Inequality type boundary conditions are imposed on the crack faces. We prove an existence of invariant integrals and analyze the asymptotic behavior of the solution. It is shown that the limit problem describes an equilibrium state for the elastic body with a thin inclusion.

Crack Interaction Studies Using XFEM Technique
In this paper, edge crack problems under mechanical loads have been analysed using extended finite element method (XFEM) as it has proved to be a competent method for handling problems with discontinuities. The XFEM provides a versatile technique to model discontinuities in the solution domain without re-meshing or conformal mesh. The stress intensity factors (SIF) have been calculated by domai...
متن کاملNUMERICAL INVESTIGATION OF CRACK ORIENTATION IN THE FRETTING FATIGUE OF A FLAT ROUNDED CONTACT
The growth of slant cracks by fretting fatigue of a half plane in contact with a flat rounded pad was studied. The mode I and mode II stress intensity factors for cracks of various lengths and directions were calculated using the semi-analytical method of the distribution of dislocations, and their cumulative effect on the crack growth was investigated using the strain energy density criterion....
متن کاملModeling of fatigue crack closure in inclined and deflected cracks
A 2-dimensional, elastic-plastic finite element model has been developed to simulate plasticity induced crack closure in slanted and deflected cracks growing outside the small scale yielding (SSY) regime. The finite element model allows for contact between deformable surfaces to capture the complex contact interaction between the crack faces. Coulomb’s friction law has been used to model fricti...
متن کاملA Nonlinear Model for Dynamics of Delaminated Composite Beam with Account of Contact of the Delamination Crack Faces, Based on the First Order Shear Deformation Theory
In this work, a new approach is developed for dynamic analysis of a composite beam with an interplay crack, in which a physically impossible interpenetration of the crack faces is prevented by imposing a special constraint, leading to taking account of a force of contact interaction of the crack faces and to nonlinearity of the formulated boundary value problem. Longitudinal force resultants in...
متن کاملInterface Cracks
-Properties of elastic solutions to interface crack problems are discussed in both the open formulation, in which the crack faces are assumed to be traction-free and interpenetration is permitted, and the unilateral formulation, where a contact zone is generally established adjacent to the crack tips. It is shown that if the contact zone is sufficiently small compared with the other dimensions ...
