Abstract
The French A16 guide developed at CEA Saclay proposes a methodology to estimate the stress and strain in the vicinity of the crack tip and a criterion to assess crack initiation by using these local parameters. A worked example for a CT specimen is developed and the results are c ompared with finite element analysis. Both calculation methods have th eir specific material behaviour models. In this text, the finite eleme nt constitutive model is presented. The material coefficients needed f or the A16 guide are then determined by means of numerical simulation on smooth specimens.
