Micro Abstract:
The phase-field method has emerged as an extremely powerful technique to simulate crack propagation with significant success. Phase-field simulation of crack propagation in elasto-plastic multilayered materials is discussed in this work. Three fundamental cases are studied i.e. (i) crack propagation in a brittle material, (ii) in a ductile material and (iii) in a brittle-ductile composite. The numerical results demonstrate the mechanical performance of such a multilayered composite design.
