Cohesive elements parameters

Submitted by parisa on

Hi,

I am working a long time on using cohesive elements in ABAQUS but up to now my efforts have be unsucessful.

I want to use of cohesive elements with the following paramters:

Damage initiation: Normal stres= 1.9 MPa, shear stress= 6.2 MPa 

Damage evolution:  Mode I fracture energy= 0.5307, Mode II farcture energy= 0.6623

Could any body kindly let me know that what would be my model E/Knn, E/Kss parameters?

Thank you,

Parisa

 

fatigue crack growth curve

I implement a program for fatigue crack growth in the XFEM.

But I have great difficulties to find material parameters used for PARIS- or  FORMAN/METTU-equation.

Can anyone point me where this parameters could be released, for example for epoxy, polyurethane, 18CrNiMo7-6 and Aluminium.

I would very appriciate your response.

convergence problem in interface delamination modeling in ansys

Submitted by saeedspace on

hi every body..

im trying to  model interface delamination in ansys. i use inter204 or 205 for interface element.the problem is that as the stress in interface riches the yield value, the solution doesnt converge.

 

i tried to increase  the number of substeps or decrease the size of element, but the problem still exists.
