Abstract:
A coupled fracture model is proposed and implemented to investigate the deformation and fracture of elastoplastic materials. The fracture model parameters are determined by constructing true fracture strain diagrams and determining the limiting characteristics of 12Kh18N10T and 10KhSND steel. Numerical simulation results for the fracture of cylindrical rods under tension are presented. It is revealed that the type and nature of tensile fracture of cylindrical samples determined in the calculations are in good agreement with the experimental data.
