Averaged strain energy density estimated rapidly from the nodal stresses by FEM for cracks under mixed mode loadings including the T-stress contribution

The present contribution reviews a recently proposed method to rapidly estimate the averaged SED at the tip of short as well as long cracks under in-plane I+II and long cracks under out-of-plane I+III mixed mode loadings. Short cracks are distinguished from long cracks by considering that the stress...
