β¦ Synopsis
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 independent new model parameters. Comparison with available predictions of cohesive models based on porous plasticity damage models is used to demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed model. The effect of triaxiality on conventional cohesive parameters is well predicted as peak stresses are shown to increase while the cohesive energy decreases with triaxiality.

In this work a cohesive zone model is developed to simulate fatigue crack propagation along bonded interfaces. The model is implemented by means of the USDFLD subroutine in the commercial software Abaqus. In particular, the crack growth increment is translated into a damage increment per cycle in th
Almtraet-A cohesive damage zone model of the Dugdale-Barenblatt type is presented to explore the effects of microscopic damage on a macroscopic crack in ductile materials. A semi-intinite macrocrack in a power-law plastic material under antiplane shear (mode III) is considered. The microscopic damag
