Modelling the initiation of cleavage fracture of ferritic steels
The initiation of the cleavage fracture of ferritic steels at cracked grain boundary carbides situated in a plastic zone is modelled, using a 2D discrete dislocation simulation of the plastic zones associated with a microcrack under triaxial loading. Fracture is assumed to occur when the local stres...
