Polyurethane foams crush in compression and have a brittle fracture in tension, so their failure could be evaluated based on Linear Elastic Fracture Mechanics. Fracture toughness in mixed mode loading is of particular interest because foam cracking weakens the structure's capacity for carrying loads. Four fracture criteria (Maximum circumferential tensile stress, Minimum strain energy density, Maximum...
