Artificial compliance inherent to the intrinsic cohesive zone models: criteria and application to planar meshes
Résumé
In this study, criteria on the artificial compliance due to intrinsic cohesive zone models are presented. The approach is based on a micromechanicalmodel for a collection of cohesive zone models embedded between each mesh of a finite element-type discretization. The overall elastic behaviour of this cohesive volumetric medium is obtained using homogenization techniques and is given in a closed-form as function of bulk properties of the relevant material and mesh parameters (the mesh type and size). Practical criteria are obtained for the calibration of the cohesive stiffnesses bounding the additional compliance inherent to intrinsic cohesive zone models by lower value. For isotropic planar discretizations (e.g. Delaunay mesh), a rigorous bound is derived whereas convenient estimates are given for non-isotropic discretizations (e.g. regular mesh).
