Numerical modelling of intergranular fracture in polycrystalline materials and grain size effects
Fracture and Structural Integrity, 2013 In this paper, the phenomenon of intergranular fracture in polycrystalline materials is investigated using a nonlinear fracture mechanics approach. The nonlocal cohesive zone model (CZM) for finite thickness interfaces recently proposed by the present ...

Modelling adhesive joints with cohesive zone models: effect of the cohesive law shape of the adhesive layer [PDF]
, 2013 Adhesively-bonded joints are extensively used in several fields of engineering. Cohesive Zone Models (CZM) have been used for the strength prediction of adhesive joints, as an add-in to Finite Element (FE) analyses that allows simulation of damage growth,

Computational model coupling mode II discrete fracture propagation with continuum damage zone evolution [PDF]
, 2017 We propose a numerical method that couples a cohesive zone model (CZM) and a finite element-based continuum damage mechanics (CDM) model. The CZM represents a mode II macro-fracture, and CDM finite elements (FE) represent the damage zone of the CZM.

The Cohesive Zone Model Applied to Blunt Cracks
, 2014 Many practical situations involve blunt cracks, which have a finite tip radius and no stress singularity due to the presence of a notch or self-blunting behavior. In these cases, linear elastic fracture mechanics does not apply.
