Analysis of crack formation and crack growth in concrete by means of fracture mechanics and finite elements
TLDR
In this article, fracture mechanics is introduced into finite element analysis by means of a model where stresses are assumed to act across a crack as long as it is narrowly opened, which may be regarded as a way of expressing the energy adsorption in the energy balance approach.About:

Microplane damage model for fatigue of quasibrittle materials: Sub-critical crack growth, lifetime and residual strength
Kedar Kirane,Zdeněk P. Bažant +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors extended the M7 model by incorporating a new law for hysteresis and fatigue degradation, which is formulated as a function of the length of the path of the inelastic volumetric strain in the strain space.

Comparison of the Hu-Duan Boundary Effect Model with the Size-Shape Effect Law for Quasi-Brittle Fracture Based on New Comprehensive Fracture Tests
TL;DR: The boundary effect model (BEM) for concrete fracture and the effects of specimens size and crack length has previously been criticized on theoretical grounds, but the experimental evidence found in the literature, when taken alone, has been too limited to judge the validity of BEM conclusively.

A thermo-mechanical cohesive zone model for solder joint lifetime prediction
TL;DR: In this article, a Cohesive Zone Model (CZM) is developed for simulating the thermo-mechanical fatigue of solders in electronic chip packages subjected to active power cycling.

A fracture mechanics model to predict the rate sensitivity of mode I fracture of concrete
TL;DR: In this paper, a nonlinear fracture mechanics model is proposed to predict the strain rate effect on mode I fracture of concrete, which requires three material properties (Critical Stress Intensity Factor, KIcs Critical Crack Tip Opening Displacement, CTODc and Young's Modulus, E) from static tests.

FE-model for Titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) cutting based on the identification of limiting shear stress at tool-chip interface
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the limiting shear stress at the tool-chip interface in the case of Titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) dry cutting based on a FE-model.
