Fracture dynamics with crack edges contact interaction
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we consider classical and variational of fracture dynamic problems with taking into account a contact interaction of the crack edges. An algorithm for the solution of the elastodynamic contact problem with unilateral constrain has been developed. It arises from the boundary variational principle of elastodynamics for bodies with cracks and unilateral constrains on their sides. Some numerical results are presented for 3-D elastodynamic unilateral contact problem for bodies with cracks. Key-Words: Fracture, elastodynamics, unilateral contact, variational principle, stress intensity factor.

ÐBy incorporating the eects of interfacial adhesion in the mechanics of rounded contact between two bodies, a new approach is proposed for the quantitative analysis of a wide variety of contact fatigue situations involving cyclic normal, tangential or torsional loading. In this method, conditions of ``strong'' and ``weak'' adhesion are identi®ed by relating contact mechanics and fracture mecha...
