Fatigue crack propagation within Al-Cu-Mg single crystals based on crystal plasticity and XFEM combined with cohesive zone model

open access: yesMaterials & Design, 2021
A method combining crystal plasticity (CP), the eXtended Finite Element Method (XFEM), and cohesive zone model (CZM) with traction separation law is developed for an Al-Cu-Mg alloy to predict the effect of grain orientation on fatigue crack propagation ...

Enhanced cohesive zone model to predict delamination behavior of carbon/epoxy laminated curved beams [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
This paper proposes an enhanced Cohesive Zone Model (CZM) for the prediction of delamination in curved beams of epoxy carbon laminates. This model improves the conventional CZM, taking into account the fiber-bridging phenomenon and the variation of the ...

Finite element modelling of mode I delamination specimens by means of implicit and explicit solvers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The simulation of delamination using the Finite Element Method (FEM) is a useful tool to analyse fracture mechanics. In this paper, simulations are performed by means of two different fracture mechanics models: Two Step Extension (TSEM) and Cohesive Zone

A Cohesive Zone Model for Three-dimensional Fatigue Debonding/Delamination [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The cohesive zone model (CZM) has found a wide acceptance as a tool for the simulation of delamination in composites and debonding in bonded joints. Recently, fatigue-devoted implementations of CZM have been proposed.

Predicting mode II delamination suppression in z-pinned laminates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
A finite element model for predicting delamination resistance of z-pin reinforced laminates under the mode-II load condition is presented. End notched flexure specimen is simulated using a cohesive zone model.

Effect of fracture energy estimation on the predictions of mode II behavior of bonded joints using cohesive zone models

open access: yesFracture and Structural Integrity
Fracture behavior of adhesive joints is an important topic in structural design of new structural elements or in retrofitting of existing ones. The mechanical models available in literature capable of predicting the failure mode of these junctions are ...

Numerical aspects of phase field models for low-temperature fracture in asphalt mixtures

open access: yesCase Studies in Construction Materials, 2023
Unlike the cohesive interface element model, the phase field model (PFM) is a newly developed computational model which provides a unified approach to predicting crack nucleation, propagation, coalescence and branching without any ad-hoc criterion.
