β¦ Synopsis
In this paper, the elasto-plastic Finite Element Method was used to simulate the ductile fracture initiation of four kinds of specimens made of low-carbon steel No. 20 (Chinese steel), and the damage parameter V D was calculated for these specimens. The results showed that the damage mechanics criterion lid proposed by the author and B. X. Yang [Engng Fracture Mech. 27, 371-386 (1987)], could be applied to predict the crack initiation. Also, the relationship between the damage parameter Vt~ and the crack tip opening displacement was discussed in this study.

The addition of a dispersed ductile phase to a brittle material can lead to significant increases in fracture resistance compared to the untoughened matrix material. Often the important mechanism appears to be bridging by intact ductile ligaments behind the advancing crack tip. Although a framework
Ah&act-The deformability of ductile materials in tension is restricted by the initiation and growth of voids and by their final coalescence into a crack. In this paper, a model is proposed to calculate the stress vs displacement curve of a volume element comaining a growing void, which takes into ac
