How to introduce an initial crack in phase field simulations to accurately predict the linear elastic fracture propagation threshold?
Flavien Loiseau, Veronique Lazarus
Variational phase field fracture models are now widely used to simulate crack propagation in structures. A critical aspect of these simulations is the correct determination of the…

Path differences between quasistatic and fatigue cracks in anisotropic media
Xinyuan Zhai, Thomas Corre, Ataollah Mesgarnejad +2
The propagation path of quasistatic cracks under monotonic loading is known to be strongly influenced by the anisotropy of the fracture energy in crystalline solids or engineered m…
