Dual Boundary Element Method for Modelling Curved Crack Paths
Source abstract
Abstract
A new procedure for modelling curved crack paths based on the maximum principal stress criterion that uses the dual boundary element method (DBEM) is presented. It ensures that the crack path is smooth. It is shown that the analysis is not sensitive to crack extension size.
