Research on Fatigue Crack Propagation of 304 Austenitic Stainless Steel Based on XFEM and CZM

open access: yesMetals, 2020
The fatigue crack propagation of 304 austenitic stainless steel was studied both by experiments and numerical simulations. Two methods were applied to simulate the crack propagation: the extended finite element method (XFEM) and the cohesive zone model ...

Coupled LEM–CZM Numerical Framework for Landslide Simulation and Its Application to Geotechnical Design

open access: yesDesigns
To realistically simulate the entire slip-surface process from crack initiation to run-out, we couple the simplified Bishop method (LEM) with zero-thickness cohesive elements (CZM): LEM first pinpoints the critical slip circle, then CZM tracks interface ...

Novel criterion for W-Cu interlayer joint delamination in divertor target monoblock under heating through ANSYS-CZM parametric studies

open access: yesNuclear Materials and Energy
To evaluate the possibility of delamination in the joint interface between the divertor target tungsten monoblock and the copper interlayer, the stress and displacement distributions around the joint interface under monotonic heat loading up to the ...

Use of combined CZM and XFEM techniques for the patch shape performance analysis on the behavior of a 2024-T3 Aluminum structure reinforced with a composite patch

open access: yesFracture and Structural Integrity, 2022
The presence of a geometric discontinuity such as a crack or a notch can cause the failure of a structure during its use. Under various mechanical or thermal stresses, a high concentration of stresses can take place at the level of these discontinuities,

Could the Comfort Zone Model Enhance Job Role Clarity in Youth Work? Insights from an Ethnographic Case Study of the United Kingdom-Based National Citizen Service

open access: yesYouth, 2023
A convention in outdoor adventure education leadership is to stretch participants beyond their comfort zone to optimize engagement and learning. This article explores how an interpretation of the comfort zone model (CZM) might potentially enhance job ...

New CZM for Interfacial Crack Growth [PDF]

open access: yesMathematical Problems in Engineering, 2017
The cohesive zone model (CZM) has been widely used for numerical simulations of interface crack growth. However, geometrical and material discontinuities decrease the accuracy and efficiency of the CZM when based on the conventional finite element method (CFEM).

Study of influence of various loading parameters on crack propagation by using Cohesive Zone Modeling (CZM) approach

open access: yesOpen Engineering, 2012
Cohesive Zone Modeling (CZM) is one of the most promising tools to investigate nonlinear crack propagation in present time. In this study, CZM approach is used to investigate the influence of various type of loading parameters in nonlinear crack ...
