Fracture Mechanics Webinar Series Part 2: Ansys Fracture Mechanics Applications Examples

This webinar is the second in a two-part series on fracture mechanics, conducted on April 4, 2024. DRD dives into a few application examples where fracture mechanics is employed for crack evaluation. This includes static fracture of an airframe bulkhead beam where the crack arrests, fatigue fracture of the same airframe bulkhead beam, and fatigue fracture of a spline gear carrier. DRD will discuss input of relevant fracture material parameters and review output from Ansys crack growth simulations.
