Abstract:
We consider the propagation of a crack in a brittle material along a prescribed crack path and define a quasi-static evolution by means of stationary points of the free energy. We show that this evolution satisfies Griffith's criterion in a suitable form which takes into account both stable and unstable propagations, as well as an energy balance formula which accounts for dissipation in the unstable regime. If the load is monotonically increasing, this solution is explicit and almost everywhere unique. For more general loads we construct a solution via time discretization. Finally, we consider a finite element discretization of the problem and prove convergence of the discrete solutions.

Abstract:
Fracture mechanics has been revisited by proposing different models of quasi static brittle fracture. In this work, the problem of the quasi static crack propagation is based on variational approach. It requires no prior knowledge of the crack path or of its topology. Moreover, it is capable of modeling crack initiation. In the numerical experiments, we use a standard linear (P1) Lagrange finite element method for discretization. We perform numerical simulations of a piece of brittle material without initial crack. An alternate minimizations algorithm is used. Based on these numerical results, we determine the influence of numerical parameters on the evolution of energies and crack propagation. We show also the necessity of considering the kinetic term and the crack propagation becomes dynamic.

Abstract:
AbstractIn the framework of rate independent processes, we present a variational model of quasi-static crack growth in hydraulic fracture. We first introduce the energy functional and study the equilibrium conditions of an unbounded linearly elastic body subject to a remote strain {\epsilon\in\mathbb{R}} and with a sufficiently regular crack Γ filled by a volume V of incompressible fluid. In particular, we are able to find the pressure p of the fluid inside the crack as a function of Γ, V, and ϵ. Then we study the problem of quasi-static evolution for our model, imposing that the fluid volume V and the fluid pressure p are related by Darcy’s law. We show the existence of such an evolution, and we prove that it satisfies a weak notion of the so-called Griffith’s criterion.

Abstract:
We consider crack propagation in brittle nonlinear elastic materials in the context of quasi-static evolutions of energetic type. Given a sequence of self-similar domains nΩ on which the imposed boundary conditions scale according to Bažant's law, we show, in agreement with several experimental data, that the corresponding sequence of evolutions converges (for n → ∞) to the evolution of a crack in a brittle linear-elastic material.

Abstract:
Abstract In this paper the strain rate effect of the material was quantitatively tested by INSTRON tensile testing machine and Zwick/Roell HTM5020 high-speed tensile testing machine. The dimple size of the fracture surface of the tensile specimen was determined and analyzed by using the scanning electron microscope. Based on the Cowper-Symonds constitutive model, the parameters in the dynamic constitutive model and the true stress-strain curve under quasi-static condition were obtained by combining the results of quasi-static and dynamic tensile tests and the finite element numerical analyses. Considering the strain rate effect of the material the effects of cold rolling speed on the evolution of different types of defects were analyzed by the ANSYS/LS-DYNA dynamics code. The results show that with the increasing of crack length and decreasing of crack width, the critical rolling speed decreases. But if the crack length is less than 5 mm and the aspect ratio of crack length to crack width is larger than 5, the critical rolling speed of crack growth can be much large.

Abstract:
The boundary value problem with relations to the theory of flow with non- linear hardening in derivatives stress and strain tensors in the parameter loading is formulated to estimate local mechanical properties in the vicinity of crack tip of mode of loading for plane strain of elastic-plastic material at the stage of quasi-static growth. Complete solutions are obtained by the method of asymp- totic decompositions. The redistribution of stress and strain fields in the plastic region at quasi-static growing crack for the intermediate structure is investigat- ed. The form of plastic zones was found in the evolution of fracture process of material. We also obtained direct estimates of errors and diameters of con- vergence when dropping residues of series.

Abstract:
In the present work, the effects of heat treatment and strain rate on mechanical behaviour and microstructure evolution of aluminium alloy 6061 have been investigated. The micro-crack initiation and crystallographic texture evolution are obtained from scanning electron microscope and electron back-scatter diffraction experiments. Quasi-static and high strain rate compression tests are conducted on AA6061 specimens that underwent two different heat treatments: the as-received material with the original T6 heat treatment and the heat treated and artificially aged specimens. For the high strain rate compression (∼2000 and ∼4000 s−1) tests, the split Hopkinson pressure bar apparatus is used. It is observed that the additional heat treatment has significantly reduced the yield strength of the material. Furthermore, electron back-scatter diffraction results show that the higher the applied strain rate is, the less significant change will happen to the texture. Scanning electron microscope images show that, for both T6 and HT specimens, the number and size of micro-cracks in the dynamic compressed specimens are smaller than in the quasi-static deformed specimen. Therefore, the strain rate is considered to be the dominant factor in forming micro-cracks.

Abstract:
Three-point bend fracture tests have been conducted at different loading rates with a quadratic martensitic steel. The failure energy has been found to increase with loading rate. To get insights in this increase a numerical investigation has been undertaken with different strategies using ABAQUS and IMPETUS softwares in order to address quasi-static and dynamic loading conditions. Simulations were conducted with the ABAQUS software in order to carry out a comparative analysis of both implicit and explicit approaches. In addition to standard Finite Element Method (FEM) applied to quasi-static and dynamic conditions, the eXtended-Finite Element Method (X-FEM) was applied to quasistatic conditions. In both approaches, implicit and explicit, crack initiation and propagation were governed by a critical plastic strain threshold combined with a displacement-based damage evolution criterion. Simulations conducted with the IMPETUS software use an explicit approach and second order elements for both quasi-static and dynamic loading conditions. A node-splitting method using an energy-based damage criterion was employed to simulate the crack initiation and propagation. Experimental data and numerical results have been compared, allowing to determine the ability of these two softwares to simulate accurately three-point bend fracture tests.
