A Simple Model of Dynamic Cleavage Producing Constant Speed Crack Propagation in a Sample of Finite Width
نویسنده
چکیده
A simple model of dynamic cleavage under longitudinal shear deformation is analyzed as an attempt to understand how ancient lapidaries might have produced smooth cleaved surfaces. Attention is concentrated on the time signature of the load applied to the specimen in order to maintain a constant stress intensity factor (or energy release rate) at the crack tip as it propagates away from the location of the applied load at a constant speed. The analysis is also applicable to situations in which fracture requires a time dependent energy release rate. An example of the cleavage of diamond is considered.

A dynamic lattice model for heterogeneous materials
In this paper, the mechanical behavior of three-phase inhomogeneous materials is modeled using the meso-scale model with lattice beams for static and dynamic analyses. The Timoshenko beam theory is applied instead of the classical Euler-Bernoulli beam theory and the mechanical properties of lattice beam connection are derived based on the continuum medium using the non-local continuum theory. T...
متن کاملDynamic Fracture Analysis Using an Uncoupled Arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian Finite Element Formulation
This paper deals with the implementation of an efficient Arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian (ALE) formulation for the three dimensional finite element modeling of mode I self-similar dynamic fracture process. Contrary to the remeshing technique, the presented algorithm can continuously advance the crack with the one mesh topology. The uncoupled approach is employed to treat the equations. So, each t...

Fracture surface of Zircaloy-2 specimens tested under constant crosshead speed in CH3OH/0.4 Vol. %HCI solution with and without selenium (25 ppm) addition was studied. Using a combined process of deformation and annealing, coarse grained material was also obtained and examined. Two modes of stress corrosion crack propagation were observed: an intergranular zone caused by stress assisted anodic ...

In this paper, a two-dimensional computational model is proposed for predicting the initiation position and propagation path of subsurface crack of spur gear tooth flank. In order to simulate the contact of teeth, an equivalent model of two contacting cylinders is used. The problem is assumed to be under linear elastic fracture mechanic conditions and finite element method is used for numerical...
