A probabilistic model for fast-to-evaluate 2D crack path prediction in heterogeneous materials
This paper is devoted to the construction of a new fast-to-evaluate model for the prediction of 2D crack paths in concrete-like microstructures.

Summary: | This paper is devoted to the construction of a new fast-to-evaluate model for the prediction of 2D crack paths in concrete-like microstructures. The model generates piecewise linear cracks paths with segmentation points selected using a Markov chain model. The Markov chain kernel involves local indicators of mechanical interest and its parameters are learnt from numerical full-field 2D simulations of craking using a cohesive-volumetric finite element solver called XPER. The resulting model exhibits a drastic improvement of CPU time in comparison to simulations from XPER. |
