Numerical analysis of fragmentation in tempered glass with parallel dynamic insertion of cohesive elements

Mauro Corrado, Jean-François Molinari, Marco Vocialta

Tempered glass panes are subjected to high eigenstresses that induce a state of compression along the surfaces and a state of tension in the inner part. Whenever a crack reaches the tensile region, it rapidly propagates and branches in all directions driven by the eigenstress. These mechanisms induce dynamic fragmentation. The present work contains a numerical investigation of this phenomenon on panes with different thicknesses, using massively parallel simulation based on FEM with the dynamic insertion of cohesive elements. Simulations are first validated by comparing the obtained number of fragments with experimental data. Then, the resulting energy fields are examined and they show that the dissipated energy is significantly underestimated by the existing analytical models. Finally, an extended analytical model that includes the influence of the plate thickness is proposed to correctly estimate the number of fragments for high eigenstresses.

3D dynamic fragmentation with parallel dynamic insertion of cohesive elements

Jean-François Molinari, Nicolas Richart, Marco Vocialta

Dynamic fragmentation is a rapid and catastrophic failure of a material. During this process, the nucleation, propagation, branching, and coalescence of cracks results in the formation of fragments. The numerical modeling of this phenomenon is challenging because it requires high-performance computational capabilities. For this purpose, the finite-element method with dynamic insertion of cohesive elements was chosen. This paper describes the parallel implementation of its fundamental algorithms in the C++ open-source library Akantu. Moreover, a numerical instability that can cause the loss of energy conservation and possible solutions to it are illustrated. Finally, the method is applied to the dynamic fragmentation of a hollow sphere subjected to uniform radial expansion. Copyright (c) 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
