摘要
In this study finite fracture mechanics procedures are employed to predict crack formation at geometrical and material discontinuities in brittle elastic structures A hybrid failure model is utilised taking into account the stress field in the undamaged structure and the energy balance for the formation of cracks Asymptotic formulations are compared to a direct numerical implementation Experiments carried out on notched brittle specimens exhibiting various geometries and loading-modes are analysed by means of both approaches Additionally free-edge effects in composite laminates are analysed It is found that the predictions from the model agree well with experimental results (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd All rights reserved
