Fracture Analysis of Brittle Materials Based on Nonlinear FEM and Application in Arch Dam with Fractures
Current fracture analysis models based on fracture mechanics or continuum damage mechanics are still limited in the application to three-dimensional structure. Based on deformation reinforcement theory coming from elastoperfect plastic theory, unbalanced force is proposed to predict initiation and p...
