The Cohesive Zone Model for Fatigue Crack Growth
Advances in Mechanical Engineering, 2013 In the past decade, the cohesive zone model has been receiving increasing attention as a powerful tool for the simulation of fatigue crack growth. When applying cohesive zone model to fatigue fracture problem, three aspects should generally be taken into

A discontinuous Galerkin method for cohesive zone modelling [PDF]
Finite Elements in Analysis and Design, 2015 We propose a discontinuous finite element method for small strain elasticity allowing for cohesive zone modeling. The method yields a seamless transition between the discontinuous Galerkin method and classical cohesive zone modeling. Some relevant numerical examples are presented.

Overcoming the cohesive zone limit in the modelling of composites delamination with TUBA cohesive elements [PDF]
Composites Part A: Applied Science and ManufacturingThe wide adoption of composite structures in the aerospace industry requires reliable numerical methods to account for the effects of various damage mechanisms, including delamination. Cohesive elements are a versatile and physically representative way of modelling delamination.

Cohesive zone models in history dependent materials [PDF]
, 2013 Copyright @ 2013 ACMECohesive zone model is a well known concept in nonlinear fracture mechanics of elasto-plastic materials. In contrast to that, we discuss a development of the cohesive zone model to linear, but time and history dependent, materials ...

Finite element simulation of delamination growth in composite materials using LS-DYNA [PDF]
, 2009 In this paper, a modified adaptive cohesive element is presented. The new elements are developed and implemented in LS-DYNA, as a user defined material subroutine (UMAT), to stabilize the finite element simulations of delamination propagation in ...

Multi-timescale analysis of fatigue crack growth on interfaces via cohesive-zone models [PDF]
, 2014 The paper describes a new non-linear finite-element formulation to analyse fatigue debonding or delamination, along predefined interfaces, which is multi-scale in time. At the small timescale level, cyclic loading and the related oscillating response are

Testing some implementations of a cohesive-zone model at finite strain [PDF]
, 2015 This study shows how the results given by a cohesive-zone model at finite strain may depend strongly on its numerical implementation. A two-dimensional four-node cohesive element is considered, which includes several variants depending on a part of the ...
