Thank you for the great video, I wonder that if we use fracture energy option insead of the displacement and we have the traction-separation curve, is it the full area under the curve or the area between damage initiation and failure to calculate the fracture energy G ? Thanks.
For brittle material when you dont have plasticity, fracture energy is the energy under traction separation (full area). For material with plasticity, it is the area under the curve excluding the plastic area. Just draw a sketch and it will be easier to understand which part is elastic energy and which part is plastic energy. The damage always associated to elastic energy since it degrades elastic stiffness
Thank You for sharing this! I had been trying to use the cohesive elements for a while but to no avail even after reading the ABAQUS online documentation. Any idea how to model using more than one part? Like a single lap joint (metal-adhesive-metal)
Hi, it's me again. I implemented what you suggested and it worked. Thank you. Now, I'm trying to use the PPR UEL. But I'm in doubt about the units I should use for the fracture energy parameter. Should I use N/m? Because I have 300 N/m and 500 N/m for the normal and tangencial directions, but I realized that you and Prof. Paulino have used a very smaller value.
+Heron Dionisio You can use whatever you want.. just make sure they are consistent with another units.. if you draw your model (with unit length in mind as meter, you also need to use meter. and if the stiffness is 200 GPA and you input the value of 200e9 to the cell of stiffness, then it means you choose pascal as you pressure/stress unit.. in that case, your force unit should be newton..
hi, thank you for sharing, about cohesive element orientation, is it unnecessary to assign stack direction if you define sweep path for cohesive element part under mesh controls?
Just make sure to recheck the stacking direction. U dont want in a situatuon where you believe that you got the correct results, prepare report and prented it.. and then realized the direction is incorrect. Normally if you sweep it would be ok.. but once you do partition, the direction can change again..
Hello! Thank you very much for posting this video. What interaction property would you assign if two layers are to be laminated (one of which is sticked to the glue). Hoping to get a reply Thank you in advance!
this number is just sample. but if you to calibrate it, you can plot the stress-displacement curve of a given cohesive model. Then the are under the curve should match with the critical energy release rate (G1c) of the material. In that case, you change the value of dis_max so that the area below the curve match the G1c
@@prajwalbharadwaj875 it depends on what you are trying to model. If you are modeling a zero thickness interface, you should put value that is big enough to prevent spurious compliance but small enough to facilitate convergence. Value of E=10e5 to 10e8 are generally recommended. If you are modeling real material interface with finite thickness (for example adhesive) you can put real value of adhesive stiffness or usually E = Ereal/thikness of interface. Hope this helps.
Hi Dithoae, Thanks for sharing the video . I did exactly what you said but there is no element deletion. I assumed the element deletion but in the result, there is an expansion in cohesive elements but no deletion! so two surfaces aren't really separated. Do you have any idea about this issue?

Traction type means that you have traction separation relationship. So you multiply the stiffness matrix and the separation between 2 faces. While if you use isotropic, they will expect strain instead of separation. But go ahead and try yourself. Maybe it works
Hi. Thank you for sharing this video with us. I'm trying to use cohesive elements in a cylindrical geometry, but it isn't working.

I tried to mesh the parts doing the same thing you did, but it didn't work. The parts don't connect to each other. Could you help me, please? Thank you again.
If you wan to make it in clynder.. Let say cylinder wih radius r1 and another concetric cylinder r2.. You can make one cylinder and do partition at r1, r1+0.0001 0.0001 Will be the thickness of the interface. It should be straight forward as in the video.. Make sure you follow all the steps..

Hello dithoae, first of all thanks for sharing, it is hard to find cohesive behaviour info online and what an experienced person can explain in 15 minutes takes a century to figure out from the documentation... Have you tried using cohesive surface instead of cohesive elements? Best regards.
+Santiago Restrepo yes, I tried the cohesive surface. they behave the same but implementation point of view is different. In my case, i prefer cohesive element since I can see the deformed cohesive element visually.
B. Vipul i dont think you can get it from nano indentation. Usually from nanoindentation, you may get hardness (related to plasticity) and Young's modulus.. but not the fracture behavior.
Your explanation is really good. You must have spent too much time figuring out this much. I know because I am trying this for laminated composite. Can you help me get the results? I am not able to get results. The job is getting aborted. Or can you put some video for laminated composite DCB(Double cantilever beam) test?

Hii I liked this video very much. I have a doubt on how to choose the Nominal stress values and displacement of 0.25 and E/Enn etc???....please reply
Nominal max stress can be achieved from tensile test while the displacement at failure can be calibrated by matching DCB response.

are you sure you put exactly the same input parameters? try to reduce the Gc (energy at fracture) by half
you need to enable status in the F-output, he ticks it towards the end of the video.
In mesh module, while defining element type for Cohesive layer you can see an option for element deletion, there you have to check.
