Hybrid IG-FE method applied to cohesive fracture/contact in particle-filled elastomeric composites
Source abstract
Abstract
In this paper, employing a new numerical framework, a 2D investigation is conducted on the effect of fiber-matrix contact/debonding on the stress–strain response of fiber-reinforced elastomeric composites. The analysis is carried out in the framework of large deformation/sliding. The main novelty of this work resides in using hybrid IsoGeometric-Finite Element (IG-FE) technique to discretize the domain where interfaces together with a band around them are represented by NURBS patches. These patches are coupled to the surrounding Lagrangian domain thanks to the transition elements. Interfaces’ discontinuity is readily induced through knot insertion capability within IGA. Moreover, contact constraints together with cohesive behavior are incorporated in the numerical model employing a unified mortar framework with appropriate definitions of potentials. Two numerical examples are considered within the proposed context and results are discussed in terms of stress–strain curves and stress contours. Due to proven higher accuracy of IGA in modeling contact/cohesive interfaces under large deformation and efficient use of NURBS around discontinuities, the proposed numerical methodology seems to be an appropriate (yet efficient) candidate to model such kind of highly nonlinear problems.
