3D finite element investigation of crack growth in compact tension fracture specimens
The J-integral has been used over the past twenty years to predict crack initiation and crack growth in elastic-plastic materials. Fundamental to the J-integral gaining acceptance as a suitable fracture parameter for elastic-plastic solids were the papers of Rice and Rosengren, and Hutchinson. In 19...
