Cohesive zone length in numerical simulations of composite delamination
Abstract
Accurate analysis of composite delamination using interface elements relies on having sufficient elements within a softening region known as the cohesive zone ahead of a crack tip. The present study highlights the limitations of existing formulae used to predict numerical cohesive zone length and demonstrates modifications necessary for improved accuracy. Clarification is also provided regarding the minimum number of interface elements within...
