Simulation of Crack Growth in a Cell Containing an Inclusion Using Cohesive Elements

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this study, two cases of crack growth initiation from a foreign particle in a representative elementary volume are analyzed. The task is completed with a cohesive model implemented in ABAQUS. The results are compared with those obtained for an inclusion-free cell.
