1. Reference problem#

1.1. Geometry#

The geometry is restricted to the crack tip noted \(B\).

1.2. Material properties#

The material is elasto-plastic. It is not necessary to provide traction curves, as the test does not perform a finite element calculation. Quantities such as temperature and energy recovery rates are directly extracted from tables. Only the material parameters useful for post-processing are provided:

  • Poisson’s ratio \(\nu =0.3\)

  • Young’s module

  • Tenacity \({K}_{\mathit{IC}}\) given in the form of a temperature-dependent curve, under the keyword factor RUPT_FM of the command DEFI_MATERIAU
