The Variational Approach to Fracture

The Variational Approach to Fracture

by Blaise Bourdin (Author), Gilles A . Francfort (Author), Jean-JacquesMarigo (Author)

Synopsis

This approach views crack growth as the result of a competition between bulk and surface energy, treating crack evolution from its initiation all the way to the failure of a sample. The authors model crack initiation, crack path, and crack extension for arbitrary geometries and loads.
