Failure processes in soft and quasi-brittle materials with nonhomogeneous microstructures
… as interfacial debonding), we use cohesive zone elements which follow the Park-Paulino-Roesler traction-separation relation. To account for friction, we present a new, coupled cohesive-friction relation and detail its formulation and implementation. In the process of this investigation, we …

Adaptive finite element simulation of fracture: from plastic deformation to crack propagation
… computational simulation by means of the finite element method and will investigate topological and physical aspects of adaptive remeshing for two types of structural systems: quasi-brittle and ductile. For ductile systems, we are interested in modeling the large deformations that occur before …
