Numerical Analysis of Boundary Effects in Nonlinear Orthotropic Body with Crack
摘要
The boundary-value equilibrium problem for a nonlinear orthotropic body containing a central mode I crack, with fracture process zones formed at both crack tips, has been numerically analyzed. The study has determined how the transverse dimension of the body, crack length, and process zone length influence the strain and stress fields, as well as the configuration of the nonlinear zone emerging at the crack tips.
