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 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 کاملAnisotropic Mesh Adaptation for Crack Detection In Brittle Materials
The quasistatic brittle fracture model proposed by G. Francfort and J.-J. Marigo can be Γ-approximated at each time evolution step by the Ambrosio-Tortorelli functional. In this paper, we focus on a modification of this functional which includes additional constraints via penalty terms to enforce the irreversibility of the fracture as well as the applied displacement field. Secondly, we build o...
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 کامل[Proceeding] Crack deflection in brittle materials by Finite Fracture Mechanics
During their operation, modern aircraft engine components are subjected to increasingly demanding operating conditions, especially the high pressure turbine (HPT) blades. Such conditions cause these parts to undergo different types of time-dependent degradation, one of which is creep. A model using the finite element method (FEM) was developed, in order to be able to predict the creep behaviour...
