Study of the Mechanism of Fracture of Brex Under Static and Impact Loads

  • Published:
Metallurgist Aims and scope

Physical and numerical modeling are used to study the mechanism of crack formation and fracture in extrusion briquettes (brex) loaded under different conditions. It is shown that under a static tensile load (splitting load) the briquette begins to fracture in its central part as a result of tensile stresses. The data obtained from mathematical modeling by the cohesive-surface method agree well with the findings of the physical experiment. Results are presented from modeling the fracture of a briquette dropped from a height of 1.5 m.
