A parallel computational framework for simulating fracture in shells


Abstract eng:
We propose a new computational framework for simulating deformation and fracture in large shell structures that is well-suited to parallel computation. In contrast to many existing methods, the framework is able to model fracture driven by transverse shear, in addition to combined bending and in-plane stretching. The essential ingredients of this framework are a discontinuous Galerkin discretization of a Reissner-Mindlin type shear-flexible theory and a interface element-based cohesive zone model of fracture.
