Application of the finite-element method to fracture problems
by W. Schmitt, D. Siegele
International Journal of Computer Applications in Technology (IJCAT), Vol. 5, No. 2/3/4, 1992

Abstract: The efficiency of fracture mechanics assessment of components using the finite-element method is discussed. The constraint modified J-integral concept describes the real behaviour of components well. The concept of damage mechanics offers new ways of assessing structures. The modified Gurson model can be applied successfully to predicting differences in the slopes of J-resistance curves of different specimen geometries.
