Modeling Microvoid Localization with Explicit Finite Element Analysis
Ductile fracture is characterized by the micromechanisms of void nucleation, growth, and coalescence. Numerical modeling of these micromechanical phenomena has typically been performed with an implicit finite element analysis (FEA) solver, which accurately produces quasi-static results, but introduc...
