Multi-Level hp-Adaptivity for Cohesive Fracture Modeling
Discretization induced oscillations in the load-displacement curve are a well known problem for simulations of cohesive crack growth with finite elements. The problem results from an insufficient resolution of the complex stress state within the cohesive zone ahead of the crack tip. This work demonstrates that the hp-version of the finite element method is ideally suited to resolve this complex...
متن کاملUsing geometrically, topologically and materially unstructured methods to reduce mesh dependency in dynamic cohesive fracture simulations
We present a method to reduce mesh bias in dynamic fracture simulations using the fi nite element method withadaptive insertion of extrinsic cohesive zone elements along element boundaries. The geometry of the domaindiscretization is important in this setting because cracks are only allowed to propagate along element facets andcan potentially bias the crack paths. To reduce mesh...
متن کاملComparison between Adaptive Refinement and Adaptive Coarsening for Simulating Realistic Force and Shape of Virtual Cloth
Shape as well as force is required to represent the cloth in virtual environment. A model, based on the cost functions, realizes the shape together with force by using physical data obtained from Kawabata Evaluation System. However, cost/ energy minimization technique is very slow that restricts the increase of mesh density. Some of previous work has employed the adaptive refinement in this reg...
متن کاملA Scalable Computational Approach for Modeling Dynamic Fracture of Brittle Solids in Three Dimensions
In this thesis a new parallel computational method is proposed for modeling threedimensional dynamic fracture of brittle solids. The method is based on a combination of the discontinuous Galerkin (DG) formulation of the continuum elastodynamic problem with Cohesive Zone Models (CZM) of fracture. In the proposed framework, discontinuous displacement jumps are allowed to occur at all element boun...
متن کاملAdaptive Risk Refinement Methodology for Gas Turbine Engine Rotor Disks
Probabilistic fracture mechanics is a well-established method for predicting the probability-of-fracture (POF) of gas turbine engine rotor disks subject to low-cycle fatigue. An adaptive risk refinement methodology (ARRM) was developed to automate zone discretization and refinement that are typically associated with this approach. ARRM generates initial meshes using an adaptive nodal selection ...
