Finite Element Analysis of Interactions between two cracks in FGM notched Plate under Mechanical Loading by Aboubakar Seddik Bouchikhi, Abdelkader Lousdad, Khalfi Yassine, Nasser Eddine Bouida, Sadek Gouasmi, Abdelkader Megueni

“…The investigation of multiple crack interactions in fracture mechanics is important to predict the safety and reliability of structures. This paper introduces a 2D numerical investigation used to calculate the J-integral of the main crack behavior emanating from a semicircular notch and double semicircular notch and its interaction with another crack which may occur in various positions in titanium /titanium boride functionally graded material (TiB/Ti FGM) plate subjected to tensile mechanical load. …”
