One of the key requirements for developing tough multiphase blend systems, for example, selecting the type of discrete phases (hard or soft) in a polymer matrix, is the ability to predict the fracture path. Most of these selections rely heavily on prior experience or on intuitive rationale. There ar

We develop a three-dimensional ΓΏnite-deformation cohesive element and a class of irreversible cohesive laws which enable the accurate and e cient tracking of dynamically growing cracks. The cohesive element governs the separation of the crack anks in accordance with an irreversible cohesive law, eve
## Abstract By using the finite element technique, stress intensity factors have been obtained for finite rectangular plates and the results have been given for various __h__/__a__, __W__/__a__ and __L__/__W__ ratios. By using a threeβdimensional isoparametric element, the problem has been consider
