Fracture Mechanism of Brazilian Discs with Multiple Parallel Notches Using PFC2D
Abstract
This study presents crack initiation, propagation and coalescenceat or near pre-existing open cracks in a numericalmodel under Brazilian test. Firstly, Particle Flow Code intwo dimensions (PFC2d) was calibrated with respect to thedata obtained from experimental laboratory tests to ensurethe conformity of the simulated numerical models response.Brazilian discs contain one, two, three, four, and five parallelcentred cracks (45° to the horizontal)...
