title: A unified interface constitutive law for the study of fracture and contact problems in heterogeneous materials
creator: Paggi, Marco

subject: TJ Mechanical engineering and machinery
description: A unified interface constitutive law for the description of contact and decohesion at bi-material interfaces is proposed. To this aim, a synthesis of the nonlinear models pertaining to Fracture and Contact Mechanics is presented. The issues pertinent to the implementation within the FE discretization framework are also discussed in detail. Finally, a numerical example of fatigue modeling at the mesoscopical level in a fiber-reinforced composite is provided.
