Effective toughness estimation by FFT based phase field fracture: application to composites and polycrystals
Pedro Aranda, Javier Segurado
An estimate of the effective toughness of heterogeneous materials is proposed based on the Phase Field Fracture model implemented in an FFT homogenization solver. The estimate is b…

A crack-length control technique for phase field fracture in FFT homogenization
Pedro Aranda, Javier Segurado
Modeling the propagation of cracks at the microscopic level is fundamental to understand the effect of the microstructure on the fracture process. Nevertheless, microscopic propaga…
