Phase-field approximation for a class of cohesive fracture energies with an activation threshold
Antonin Chambolle, Vito Crismale
We study the -limit of Ambrosio-Tortorelli-type functionals , whose dependence on the symmetrised gradient is different in and in $e(u)…
Existence of strong solutions to the Dirichlet problem for the Griffith energy
Antonin Chambolle, Vito Crismale
In this paper we continue the study of the Griffith brittle fracture energy minimisation under Dirichlet boundary conditions, suggested by Francfort and Marigo in 1998. In a recent…
Fatigue effects in elastic materials with variational damage models: A vanishing viscosity approach
Roberto Alessi, Vito Crismale, Gianluca Orlando
We study the existence of quasistatic evolutions for a family of gradient damage models which take into account fatigue, that is the process of weakening in a material due to repea…
Cohesive fracture with irreversibility: quasistatic evolution for a model subject to fatigue
Vito Crismale, Giuliano Lazzaroni, Gianluca Orlando
In this paper we prove the existence of quasistatic evolutions for a cohesive fracture on a prescribed crack surface, in small-strain antiplane elasticity. The main feature of the…
