  1. 1. Convergence properties of a continuum damage mechanics model for fatigue of adhesive joints

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för ingenjörsvetenskap

    Author : Axel Josefsson; Johan Wedin; [2014]
    Keywords : Adhesive joints; Cohesive elements; Convergence; Crack growth rate; Damage Mechanics; DCB; Element Size; Fatigue;

    Abstract : The effect of the element length is examined in modelling crack growth in fatigue loading of an adhesive joint. This is done for a cohesive element using an expression for the damage evolution developed at the University of Skövde which is implemented using the UMAT subroutine in the FE-solver Abaqus. READ MORE
