An XFEM-VCCT coupled approach for modeling mode I fatigue delamination in composite laminates under high cycle loading
Abstract
In this study, virtual crack closure technique (VCCT) and extended finite element method (XFEM) are coupled to each other as XFEM-VCCT approach to simulate mode I fatigue delamination growth in composites, employing the direct cyclic method in Abaqus. Both two-dimensional plane strain and three-dimensional finite element models under force and displacement control are considered. Numerical simulation results are compared with the existed...
