A numerical study of crack shielding and deflection under extensive plasticity
Experimentally observed crack deflection events in multi-layered material systems, occurring even under pure mode-I loading, are here simulated and explained through elasto-plastic finite element modelling. The crack tip opening displacement is adopted as the crack driving force and estimated along...
