Abstract
In order to establish a ductile fracture criterion, several potential fracture parameters were investigated by comparing numerical simulations of crack extension with available experimental data. Based on the comparison, a fracture criterion, the Global-Local Fracture Criterion (GLFC), was proposed. The J-integral is employed as a global parameter to characterize the initial stage of crack extension. In the subsequent steady state crack growth, the fracture criterion is switched to a local parameter characterizing the crack tip stress or strain. The accuracy of the proposed fracture criterion in predicting ductile fracture behavior was verified.
