THERMO-HYDRO FRACTURE AND VISCOELASTIC BEHAVIOR OF TIMBER BASED MATERIALS: NUMERICAL ANALYSIS
Résumé
The rupture in mixed mode coupling of mechanical and thermal loads for isotropic and orthotropic materials such as wood is studied. The analytical formulation of the energy-release rate is introduced by the integral T and A, which couple the rupture in mixed mode, the thermal effects and the pressure applied on the crack lips. This new formulation is based on the laws of energy conservation and real and virtual mechanical and thermal fields based on the arbitrary, Lagrangian and Eulerian configurations. The Mixed-Mode Crack Growth specimen providing a decrease of the energy-release rate during crack propagation is considered in order to compute the various mixed-mode ratios. The analytical formulation is implemented using the finite-element software Cast3m. The efficiency of the proposed model is justified by showing the evolution of the energy-release rate and the stress-intensity factors versus the crack length and versus the temperature variation in a time-dependent material.
