ABSTRACTA numerical study is undertaken to simulate failure of solder joint caused by cyclic shear deformation. A progressive ductile damage model is incorporated into the rate-dependent elastic-viscoplastic finite element analysis, resulting in the capability of simulating damage evolution and eventual failure through crack formation. It is demonstrated that quantitative information of fatigue life, as well as the temporal and spatial evolution of fatigue cracks, can be explicitly obtained.

Abstract A progressive damage model was presented for carbon fiber woven composites under low velocity impact, considering the strain rate sensitivity of both mechanical properties and failure mechanisms. In this model, strain rate dependency of elastic modulus and nominal strength along in-plane direction are considered. Based on the Weibull distribution, stiffness progressive degradation is conducted by introducing strain rate dependent damage variables for distinct damage modes. With the model implemented in ABAQUS/Explicit via user-defined material subroutine (VUMAT), the mechanical behavior and possible damage modes of composites along in-plane direction can be determined. Furthermore, a bilinear traction separation model and a quadratic stress criterion are applied to predict the initiation and evolution of interlaminar delamination. Comparisons are made between the experimental results and numerical simulations. It is shown that the mechanical response and damage characteristics under low velocity impact, such as contact force history and delamination, are more consistent with the experimental results when taken the strain rate effect into consideration.
