Wedging of a Viscoelastoplastic Orthotropic Composite

International Applied Mechanics Aims and scope

Abstract

The behavior of a crack in a linearly viscoelastic orthotropic composite split by a rigid wedge with thickness increasing in time is analyzed. The constitutive equations are derived using the Dugdale crack model with time-independent stresses in the process zone and the COD criterion. The equations are used in numerical analysis of the behavior of a crack in a viscoelastic polyurethane-matrix material
