Dal Maso, GianniHeltai, Luca2020-04-272020-04-272020https://openscience.sissa.it/handle/1963/3534812 pagesWe present a numerical implementation of a model of quasi-static crack growth in linearly elastic-perfectly plastic materials. We assume that the displacement is antiplane, and that the cracks and the plastic slips are localized on a prescribed path. We provide numerical evidence of the fact that the crack growth is intermittent, with jump characteristics that depend on the material properties.enfracture mechanicsplasticityquasistatic evolutionrate-independent problemsPreprint
