Micro Abstract:
A phase field model of fracture that accounts for anisotropic material
behavior and crack propagation is presented within the small and large
deformation context. Different kinds of material anisotropy are
incorporated by (i) enhancing the crack surface density function by
appropriate structural tensors stemming from a rigorous application of
the theory of tensor invariants and (ii) by a modification of
energetic and stress-like fracture criteria.
