Abstract
Finite element analysis (FEA) combined with the concepts of Linear Elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM) provides a practical and convenient means to study the fracture and crack growth of materials. A numerical analysis (FEM) of cracks was developed to derive the SIF for two different geometries, i.e., a rectangular plate with half circle-hole and central edge crack plate in tension loading conditions. The onset criterion of crack propagation is based on the stress intensity factor, which is the most important parameter that must be accurately estimated and facilitated by the singular element. Displacement extrapolation technique (DET) is employed, to obtain the stress intensity factors (SIFs) at crack tip. The fracture is modeled by the splitting node approach and the trajectory follows the successive linear extensions of each crack increment. These comprehensive tests are evaluated and compared with other relevant numerical and analytical results obtained by other researchers.
