Finite Element Analysis for Brittle and Ductile Fracture Using a Unified Cohesive Zone Model
A unified cohesive zone model is proposed. By introducing a parameter which denotes the ductility of the material, the proposed model can be used to simulate both brittle and ductile fracture. No fitting experimental data is needed in calibrating the parameters of the proposed model, and this leads...
