3D Stress State Dependent Failure Model for Fracture Simulations
Abstract: The state of stress is defined by triaxiality (hydrostatic pressure) and the lode angle parameter (deviatoric stress third invariant). The stress state not only varies with different kinds of loading but also with the location of the stress concentration, geometry of specimen and deformation. The LS-DYNA implementation of a strain-based, stress state dependent failure criterion for a ductile material is investigated through simulations of standard experiments in this paper. A …
