The main purpose of this research is to re-analyse experimental results of fracture loads from blunt V-notched samples under mixed mode (I + II) loading considering different combinations of mode mixity ranging from pure modes I to II. The specimens are made of polymethyl-metacrylate (PMMA) and tested at room temperature. The suitability of fracture criterion based on the strain energy density (SED) when applied to these data is checked in the paper. Dealing with notched samples, characterized by different notch angles and notch root radii, the SED criterion used in combination with the concept of local mode I, valid in the proximity of the zone of crack nucleation, permits to provide a simple approximate but accurate equation for the SED in the control volume. This proposal unifies predictions for the experimental results obtained under modes I, II and mixed mode loading. 相似文献

Two fracture criteria are proposed and applied to blunt-notched components made of brittle materials loaded under mixed mode;
the former is based on the averaged strain energy density over a given control volume, the latter on the cohesive crack zone
model. In both instances use of the equivalent local mode I hypothesis is made. Only two material properties are needed: the
ultimate tensile strength and the fracture toughness. Numerical predictions of rupture loads from the two criteria are compared
with experimental measurements from more than 160 static tests with notched beams. The samples are made of PMMA and tested
at − 60°C to assure a bulk behaviour almost linear elastic up to rupture. Notch root radii range from 0.2 to 4.0 mm and load
mixicity varies from pure mode I to a prevailing mode II. The good agreement between theory and experimental results adds
further confidence to the proposed fracture criteria. 相似文献

Fracture of V-notched specimens under mixed mode (I + II) loading in brittle materials 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
The purpose of this research is threefold. First, to provide experimental results of fracture loads for V-notched beams loaded
under mixed mode. Second, to check the suitability of fracture criteria based on the cohesive zone model and strain energy
density when applied to those samples. And, third, to suggest a very simple fracture criterion, based on the dominance of
the local mode I, for notched samples (with different V-notch angles and notch root radii) loaded under mixed (I + II) mode.
This proposal unifies predictions for the experimental results obtained under mode I and mixed mode loading. To this end,
36 fracture tests on V-notched beams were performed and reported: three V-notched angles were investigated (90°, 60°, 30°,
four different loadings (mixed modes I and II) were selected and three samples were tested for each configuration. 相似文献

A Finite Fracture Mechanics (FFM) criterion is formalized to predict the critical failure loads of brittle U‐notched specimens, subjected to mode I loading. The criterion, recently applied to V‐notched structures, requires the contemporaneous fulfilment of stress requirements and energy conditions for fracture to propagate: the stress field ahead of the notch tip and the stress intensity factor related to a crack stemming from the root are involved. Both the apparent fracture toughness and the critical crack advancement result to be structural parameters. For sufficiently slender notches, the root radius becomes the only relevant geometric dimension. The consistency of the approach is proved by the comparison with experimental data available in the Literature. 相似文献

A generalised notch stress intensity factor for U-notched components loaded under mixed mode 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A novel notch stress intensity factor (NSIF) for U-notched specimens loaded under mixed mode is examined in this article. The concept is based on the averaged strain energy density criterion, or alternatively on the cohesive zone model, as well as the equivalent local mode approach. To a certain extent, it is a generalisation of Glinka’s NSIF for mode I, where σtip is replaced by σmax.The applicability of a fracture criterion based on this new NSIF is checked against 171 fracture tests with PMMA (at −60 °C) performed on U-notched specimens, with different notch root radii and loaded under mixed mode. The asymptotic behaviour of the new NSIF as the notch becomes a crack (when the notch root radius tends to zero) or when the notch disappears (when the notch root radius tends to infinity) is also discussed. 相似文献

The influence of the mode II fracture parameters on the mixed mode fracture experimental tests of quasibrittle materials is studied. The study is based on experimental results and numerical analyses. For the numerical study, a procedure for mixed mode fracture of quasibrittle materials is presented. The numerical procedure is based on the cohesive crack approach, and extends it to mixed mode fracture. Four experimental sets of mixed mode fracture were modelled, one from Arrea and Ingraffea and another from a nonproportional loading by the authors, both with bending concrete beams. Two other sets of experimental fracture were modelled, based on double-edge notched testing; in these tests an important mode II is beforehand expected. The numerical results agree quite well with experimental records. The influence of the main parameters for mode II fracture on the mixed mode fracture is studied for the four experimental set of tests and compared with these results. In all them, large changes in the mode II fracture energy hardly modify the numerical results. The tangential and normal stresses along the crack path during the loading proccess are obtained, also with different values of the mode II fracture energy. For the studied experimental tests it is concluded that the crack is initiated under mixed mode but propagated under predominant mode I. This allows a development of mixed mode fracture models, mainly based on standard properties of the material measured by standard methods, avoiding the problems associated with the measurement of mode II fracture parameters, such as mode II fracture energy and cohesion. 相似文献

AbstractThe blunting line and fracture toughness in commercially pure titanium under mode I and mixed mode I/III loading was studied. A modified compact tension geometry was used for determining the blunting line as well as mixed mode I/III fracture toughness. The results showed that the constraint factor m in the blunting line equation under mode I loading was 1.84. Also, there was no effect of notch root radius on the slope of the blunting line. The blunting line slope under mixed mode I/III loading was found to be lower than that under mode I loading and agreed with empirical correlations. The fracture toughness under mode I loading was found to be higher for specimens with larger notch root radius. However, notch root independent fracture toughness could be obtained from blunt notch specimen tests using stretch zone width measurements. The fracture toughness was found to decrease with increasing mode III loading. 相似文献

This paper proposes a hybrid approach to determine the fracture resistance for mode I and mixed‐mode I and II fracture specimens, combining both numerically computed and experimentally measured load (P) versus load‐line displacement (LLD or Δ) relationships for metallic fracture specimens. The hybrid approach predicates on the same principle as the conventional, multiple‐specimen experimental method in determining the energy release rate. The hybrid method computes the P–Δ curves from multiple finite element (FE) models, each with a different crack depth. The experimental procedure measures the P–Δ curve from a standard fracture specimen with a growing crack. The intersections between the experimental P–Δ curve and the numerical P–Δ curves from multiple FE models dictate the LLD levels to compute the strain energy (U) using the area under the numerical P–Δ curves. This method provides accurate estimates of the J resistance data for both SE(B) specimen under mode I loading and single‐edge notched specimens under mixed‐mode I and II loading. 相似文献

Brittle fracture of notched components has been widely investigated in recent decades both experimentally and theoretically. This is because of designers' concern about catastrophic failure in notched engineering components made of brittle or quasi‐brittle materials. Up to now, extensive studies have been performed on brittle fracture analysis of engineering components weakened by notches of various features under mode I, mode II, mode III and mixed mode loading conditions. In the present paper, the attempt is made to review the research articles published in the open literature on brittle fracture assessment of notched components by means of notch fracture mechanics concepts. The main focus of this paper is on the stress‐based fracture criteria, which are the basis of authors' experience in recent years. 相似文献

Numerical and experimental studies were performed on a new fracture test configuration called the diagonally loaded square plate (DLSP) specimen. The mode I and mode II stress intensity factors were computed for different crack lengths and crack orientation angles using finite element analysis. The numerical results show that the DLSP specimen is able to provide pure mode I, pure mode II and any mixed mode loading conditions in between. Fracture experiments were also conducted on Plexiglas using the DLSP specimen. It is shown that the results obtained from the fracture tests are consistent very well with mixed mode fracture theories. 相似文献

Fracture characterization under mode I loading of a cement‐based material using the single‐edge‐notched beam loaded in tree‐point‐bending was performed. A new method based on beam theory and crack equivalent concept is proposed to evaluate the Resistance‐curve, which is essential to determine fracture toughness with accuracy. The method considers the existence of a stress relief region in the vicinity of the crack, dispensing crack length monitoring during experiments. A numerical validation was performed by finite element analysis considering a bilinear cohesive damage model. Experimental tests were performed in order to validate the numerical procedure. Digital image correlation technique was used to measure the specimen displacement with accuracy and without interference. Excellent agreement between numerical and experimental load–displacement curves was obtained, which validates the procedure. 相似文献

Six-noded, isoparametric serendipity type quadrilateral regular/singular elements are used for the estimation of stress intensity factors (SIF) in linear elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM) problems involving cracks in two-dimensional structural components. The square root singularity is achieved in the six-noded elements by moving the in-side nodes to the quarter point position. The modified crack closure integral (MCCI) method is adopted which could generate accurate estimates of SIF for a relatively coarse mesh. The equations for strain energy release rate and SIF are derived for mixed mode situations using six-noded quadrilateral elements at the crack tip. The model is validated by numerical studies for a centre crack in a finite plate under uniaxial tension, a single edge notched specimen under uniaxial tension, an inclined crack in a finite rectangular plate and cracks emanating from a pin-loaded lug (or lug attachment). The results compare very well with reference solutions available in the literature. 相似文献

Mixed mode fatigue crack growth: A literature survey 总被引:13,自引:0,他引:13
The applications of fracture mechanics have traditionally concentrated on crack growth problems under an opening or mode I mechanism. However, many service failures occur from growth of cracks subjected to mixed mode loadings. This paper reviews the various criteria and parameters proposed in the literature for predictions of mixed mode crack growth directions and rates. The physical basis and limitations for each criterion are briefly reviewed, and the corresponding experimental supports are discussed. Results from experimental studies using different specimen geometries and loading conditions are presented and discussed. The loading conditions discussed consist of crack growth under mode II, mode III, mixed mode I and II, and mixed mode I and III loads. The effects of important variables such as load magnitudes, material strength, initial crack tip condition, mean stress, load non-proportionality, overloads and crack closure on mixed mode crack growth directions and/or rates are also discussed. 相似文献

This article explores the capability of the Cohesive Zone Model in predicting the critical load of blunt notched specimens made of coarse‐grained polycrystalline graphite, a brittle material that has gained the attention of researchers because of its favourable properties for protection against thermal loads. To that aim, 39 different tests on U‐notched and V‐notched specimens made of this material, with loading modes raging from mode I to mixed mode I/II, have been modelled by using the Cohesive Zone Model. The model has been implemented through the embedded crack approach, avoiding thus the necessity of defining the crack trajectory prior to the simulation because it is automatically generated once the maximum principal stress overcomes the tensile strength of the material. The numerical predictions obtained show good agreement with the experimental results. 相似文献

This paper is concerned with the mechanics and micromechanisms of stable mode I crack growth in brittle solids subjected to compression-compression fatigue and tension-tension fatigue loads. Constitutive models, results of finite element analyses, and experimental observations are described for monolithic ceramics and ceramic-matrix composites, plain concrete, and a transformation-toughened ceramic in an attempt to deduce a general theory on the origin of mode I fracture in notched plates under uniaxial cyclic compression at room temperature. An analysis of the residual stress field which develops at elevated temperatures in response to power law creep and far-field compressive cyclic loads is also presented. The principal driving force for mode I fracture in cyclic compression is the generation of a near-tip zone of residual tension, when the deformation at the notch-tip leaves permanent strains upon unloading from the far-field compressive stress. The results indicated that materials with very different microscopic deformation mechanisms, i.e., microcracking, dislocation plasticity, martensitic transformation, interfacial debonding/slip, or creep, exhibit a macroscopically similar, stable fracture under far-field cyclic compression because the zone of residual tension is embedded in material which is elastically strained in compression. It is shown that cyclic compression loading offers a unique method for fatigue precracking notched specimens of brittle solids prior to tensile fracture testing, whereby an unambiguous interpretation of the critical stress intensity factors for crack initiation and growth can be achieved. Fatigue crack growth characteristics of a transformation-toughened ceramic and a creeping ceramic composite under tension-tension fatigue loads are also discussed. 相似文献

Brittle and ductile crack propagation using automatic finite element crack box technique 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
In this paper, a numerical automatic crack box technique (CBT) is developed to perform fine fracture mechanics calculations in various structures without complete re-meshing. This technique aims to simulate the fatigue crack growth under mixed mode loading in 2D medium and shell structures calculated with the ABAQUS code, for elastic and for elastic-plastic materials. Using this method, series of numerical calculations by FEM of the mixed mode crack growth are carried out and compared with experimental tests such as a special cracked specimen subjected to different mixed mode loads. The crack growth paths are determined by using different elastic and elastic-plastic crack extension criteria. It is shown that the proposed technique is an efficient tool to simulate the crack extension angle in elastic and elastic-plastic materials. Nevertheless further experiments are needed to confirm conclusions deduced from elastic-plastic calculations.Using this technique, several phenomena influencing the crack extension are analyzed: the overload during fatigue, the fracture toughness of the material in relation with its critical J integral and its behaviour law. 相似文献

A novel testing procedure for mixed mode crack propagation in concrete is presented: four point bend of notched beams under
the action of two independent force actuators. In contrast to classical procedures, this method allows nonproportional loading
and crack trajectory modifications by changing the action of one actuator. Different experimental crack trajectories, under
mixed mode and nonproportional loading, are presented together with the corresponding curves of load-CMOD and load-displacement.
The tests were performed for three homotetic specimen sizes and two mixed mode loading conditions. The results are useful
for checking the accuracy of mixed mode fracture analytical and numerical models. The models should predict the crack trajectory
and a complete group of experimental records of load and displacements on several control points in the specimen.

An uncoupled numerical method for the analysis of dynamic crack propagation is proposed. The approach consists of two main
steps. Firstly, the internal stresses in the intact, unfractured, elastic body are calculated with the use of the finite element
method. Firstly, the internal stresses in the intact, unfractured, elastic body are calculated with the use of the finite
element method. In this calculation it is assumed that no cracks are present and that fracture does not occur. Secondly, a
theoretical crack is initiated and possible crack paths are derived from the elastic stress data. The stress-intensity factors
for the planar fracture modes I and II, for the anti-plane mode III, and for the bending modes 1 and 2 are calculated from
the well-known, linearized expressions for arbitrary, slightly curved cracks in thin plate-like and shell-like structures.
The direction and speed of crack propagation are determined from a dynamic fracture criterion based on the energy release
rate. Several applications of the uncoupled numerical method are presented, concerning standard fracture specimens loaded
by tensile forces and bending moments, a single-edge notched beam loaded by shear forces, and a three-dimensional cylindrical
tube loaded by torsional moments. Good agreement with both experimental and numerical results from the literature has been
obtained. The major advantages of the uncoupled approach are its ease-of-use and the limited computational effort.

This paper investigates the effects of the first non‐singular stress terms on the fracture assessment of sharp V‐notches under mixed mode loading. First, numerical studies have been performed on a fracture test configuration called single V‐notched ring (SVR) specimen. Then, the notch stress intensity factors as well as the coefficients of the first non‐singular stress terms, which are vital parameters in brittle fracture of V‐notched components, were calculated via a finite element over‐deterministic algorithm for a wide range of loading and geometry conditions. The obtained results demonstrate that the SVR specimen is able to provide a complete range of mode mixities from pure mode I to pure mode II loading conditions. The numerical results, next, have been converted to dimensionless parameters and are illustrated in several graphs. Indeed, these graphs can be easily employed by the engineers for rapid calculation of the corresponding notch stress intensity factors and the coefficients of the first non‐singular stress terms in the SVR specimen. The obtained fracture parameters are then submitted to the maximum tangential stress criterion to assess the effects of the first non‐singular terms on fracture behaviour of the specimen. Finally, an experimental study has been performed on the SVR specimen made of Nayriz Marble rock for two notch angles with a complete range of mode mixities. The obtained experimental data confirm the significant role of the first non‐singular stress terms. In fact, these results show that considering only the singular stress terms may induce an average error of 38% in the predicted fracture loads, which can be decreased to about 12% just by adding the contribution of the first non‐singular terms to the maximum tangential stress criterion. 相似文献
