This paper studies the effects of thermal stress on failure modes of soft matter with a sharp–hard inclusion. Two failure modes, i.e., interface failure and penetration failure, are found, and the influences of mechanical loading on each mode are discussed, respectively. Based on theoretical analysis, we get significant insight into the failure behavior of this soft–hard system. Finite element analysis...
A recently reported four-parameter cohesive zone model (CZM) has applications in dynamic fracture such as the drop-weight tear test simulation. In this paper, the CZM method is utilized to analyze the global response of the dynamic fracture problems. And the two key CZM parameters, maximum traction and cohesive energy, are determined from the nominal stress–strain (SS) curve by considering the damage...
