A new framework based on a discrete element method to model the fracture behavior for brittle polycrystalline materials

<p>This work aims to develop and implement a linear elastic grain-level micromechanical model based on the discrete element method using bonded contacts and an improved fracture criteria to capture both intergranular and transgranular microcrack initiation and evolution in polycrystalline cera...
