Damage Accumulation Rule► Damage accumulation starts if a deformation measure, accumulated or

current, is greater than a critical magnitude.► There exists an endurance limit which is a stress level below which cyclic

loading can proceed infinitely without failure.► The increment of damage is related to the increment of absolute value of

deformation as weighted by the ratio of current load level relative to strength.

Summary

• CZM vs. XFEM:– Provide close results if correctly calibrated– CZM is mesh dependent, XFEM less

• Contact Fatigue:– Multifacet CZM– Effective traction– Variable amplitude loading or tilted geometry
