Application of generalized linear elastic fracture mechanics on estimation of crack propagation origin from sharp V-notch
Štegnerová, Kateřina ; Máša, Bohuslav (referee) ; Náhlík, Luboš (advisor)
The master thesis is focused on estimation of crack propagation origin from sharp V-notch. Stress distribution around the tip of the V-notch is described on the base of generalized linear elastic fracture mechanics. The change of the stress singularity exponent caused by geometry of the V-notch and the vertex singularity is taken into account. The first part of the work is devoted to the estimation of the stress singularity exponent of the V-notch either from stress distribution around the tip of the V-notch or by using analytical solution. Formerly derived stability criteria are applied in the second part of the work. The origin of the crack propagation is estimated for several experimental specimens. The aim of this thesis is to compare the available experimentally observed data with results obtained using those criteria based on the application of generalized linear elastic fracture mechanics developer at the Institute of Physics of Materials Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic. The finite element code Ansys and mathematical software Matlab were used for the necessary calculations.

Stress distribution near sharp orthotropic bi-material notch tips
Krepl, Ondřej ; Klusák, Jan (referee) ; Hrstka, Miroslav (advisor)
Presented diploma thesis is concerned with problems of a stress singularity exponent and a generalized stress intensity factor determination, by dint the stress field in the vicinity of the stress concentrator can be consecutively determined. This task is possible to sectionalize into three parts. The first part summarizes basic information about linear anisotropic materials, deals with fundamentals of the linear elastic fracture mechanics and introduces its generalization to the case of the generalized stress intensity factors. The second part is dedicated to a special theory of anisotropic elasticity - Lekhnitskii-Eshelby-Stroh formalism (LES). Furthermore, a theory of the psi-integral is introduced, by dint the stress intensity factor is determined. The final part applies the LES theory and the psi-integral to the concrete material configuration of a crack on the bimaterial interface, a special example of a sharp bimaterial notch. By means of analytical-numerical algorithm in ANSYS and Silverforst FNT95 software the stress singularity exponents and generalised stress intensity factors are consecutively computed.

A study of the stress field near the stress concentrator at the bi-material interface
Krepl, Ondřej ; Klusák, Jan (referee) ; Profant, Tomáš (advisor)
The aim of this work is the solution of problems of the stress distribution near bimaterial notch tip or eventually the crack impinging orthogonaly the bimaterial interface, determination of stress singularity exponent. The first part is concerned with basics of linear elastic fracture mechanics, i.e. Irwin's concept of stress intensity factor. The second part is devoted to description of anisotropic materials by complex potencial theory. The final part is focused on calculation of eigenvalues of both isotropic and anisotropic materials and application of LES formalism on the calculation of stress singularities of the bimaterial ortotropic notch or the crack impinging orthogonaly the bimaterial interface.

Fatigue crack front shape estimation
Zouhar, Petr ; Klusák, Jan (referee) ; Hutař, Pavel (advisor)
The presented master’s thesis deals with fatigue crack front shape estimation. The aim of this thesis is to create an iterative process leading to the real fatigue crack front shape. Thesis is solved using finite element method. The work is divided into two logical parts. The first part of the thesis describes the basic concepts of linear elastic fracture mechanic (LEFM), methods used for estimation of stress intensity factor and stress singularity exponent. The first part further describes some phenomenon’s accompanying the mechanism of fatigue crack growth as for example crack tip curving and crack closure. In the second part of the thesis there is studied an affect of the free surface on the fracture parameters, especially the affected distance from the free surface is determined. Based on the assumption of a constant stress intensity factor and stress singularity exponent along the crack front, an iterative process leading to fatigue crack front shape is presented. The accuracy of the result is discussed by comparing of obtained crack front shapes with experimental data at the end of the thesis.

Linear elastic fracture mechanics and its application on study of composed materials
Dohnalík, Petr ; Ševeček, Oldřich (referee) ; Máša, Bohuslav (advisor)
The main objective of this bachelor thesis is the introduction to computational methods of fracture parameters of the crack, which terminates at the bi-material interface. The preface of the work deals with composites, where possible crack can grow in materials with different elastic properties. In this part advantages of composite materials are closely described and usual structure arrangements of the components are presented. The next part of this work is focused on the linear elastic fracture mechanics and available concepts for assessment of the body with presence of the crack in the homogenous material are described. These concepts are based on analytical expressions and, also, on numerical methods. This problem is furthermore extended in the next chapter by case, when the crack terminates perpendicularly to the bi-material interface. Here are given procedures, which can provide information about the further crack behaviour. In practical part all presented procedures have been used in order to evaluate the crack parameters in the homogenous material and for the crack terminating at bi-material interface. Necessary calculations were performed using the finite element method implemented in the commercial system ANSYS. Calculated results were compared and closely discussed in the conclusion.

A study of the stress distribution around the bimaterial notch tip
Hrstka, Miroslav ; Klusák, Jan (referee) ; Profant, Tomáš (advisor)
Presented bachelor’s thesis deals with determination of stress singularity exponent, by which is possible to completely define the stress distribution around the bimaterial notch tip. This task is divided in four parts. The first part concerns with basics of fracture mechanics, concretely linear elastic fracture mechanics of crack and Irwin’s conception of stress intensity factor. The second part deals with generalizing of linear fracture mechanics to notches. In the third part is initiated the numeric-analytical algorithm for computation of stress singularity exponent and determination of strains and stresses of given notch, which is compounded from two orthotropic materials. The last part is created by numerical example, in which the concrete configurations of notches are tested in calculating software.

A study of the stress distribution around the bimaterial notch tip in the terms of the generalized stress intensity factor
Hrstka, Miroslav ; Kotoul, Michal (referee) ; Profant, Tomáš (advisor)
The presented diploma thesis deals with a problem of a generalized stress intensity factor determination and a consecutive study of stress distribution around the bimaterial notch tip, combining analytical and numerical methods. This task is possible to sectionalize into three parts. The first part is dedicated to the fundamentals of the linear fracture mechanics and the mechanics of composite materials. The second part deals with methods of anisotropic plane elasticity solution. Pursuant to the solution the computational models in the third part are created. The first model makes for determination of a singularity exponent eigenvalue by dint of Lekhnitskii-Eshelby-Stroh formalism. The second model makes for determination of the generalized stress intensity factor using psi-integral method, which is based on the Betti reciprocal theorem. All needed calculation are performed in the software ANSYS 12, Maple 12 and Silverforst FTN95. Results will be compared with the values obtained from a direct method of the generalised stress intensity factor determination.
