Progressive Failure Analysis of Composites (2008, methodology): “Another similar example but with degradation factors assigned to different failure modes for threedimensional (3D) finite element implementation was developed by Camanho and Matthews [21] to predict damage progression and strength of mechanically fastened joints in carbon fiber-reinforced plastics f”
Discrete cohesive zone model for mixed-mode fracture using finite element analysis (2006, methodology): “[37–41] have implemented this type of element in ABAQUS and provided many valuable results for wide range of problems.”
Methods for the prediction of fatigue delamination growth in composites and adhesive bonds: A critical review (2013, background): “Ultimately all the XFEM-based delamination growth methods proposed so far, as well as potential future methods based on the CZMs discussed earlier, rely on a fracture mechanics model, correlating SIF or SERR with the delamination growth rate.”
Finite element modeling of mode I delamination growth in laminated DCB specimens with R-curve effects (2013, unknown): “[22] assumed that the rmax is about 40% of the matrix yield strength to mitigate convergence problems.”
Mixed-Mode Decohesion Finite Elements for the Simulation of Delamination in Composite Materials (2002, methodology): “Decohesion elements are based on a Dudgale-Barenblatt cohesive zone approach [12], [13], which can be related to Griffith’s theory of fracture when the cohesive zone size is negligible when compared with characteristic dimensions, regardless of the shape of the constitutive equation [14].”
A homogeneous limit methodology and refinements of computationally efficient zigzag theory for homogeneous, laminated composite, and sandwich plates (2011, methodology): “Computational methods for nonlinear progressive failure analysis commonly employ cohesive elements and ply-by-ply discretizations, resulting in exceedingly intensive computations, particularly when large structures are analyzed [18,19].”
