A versatile cohesive zone model to predict ductile fracture at different states of stresses is proposed. The formulation developed for mode-I plane strain accounts for triaxiality of the stress-state explicitly by using basic elastic-plastic constitutive relations combined with two stress-state inde

Two different approaches that explicitly incorporate the stress triaxiality into cohesive zone models applicable to thin-walled structures are compared to identify the relative merits and limitation of these models. The number of model parameters involved, the ease of parameter determination and the
Stable crack propagation hinges on the driving force and the resistance. In the context of a cohesive approach to fracture, properly resolving the cohesive zone ensures that the resistance is in equilibrium with the driving force. Additional restrictions on the mesh size can stem from crack stabilit
