Lattice model applied to the fracture of large strain composite

An improved lattice model is developed to simulate the fracture behavior of large strain composite. Based on equivalent relation between the continuum and the lattice model for small deformation, the equivalent relation between large strain continuum and improved lattice model is established by introducing large strain elastic law into the lattice system. The theory can simulate large deformation. The program of large strain lattice model simulates several representative problem of large strain elasticity. The results agree with the theoretical results. Assumed failure criterion is used to describe the fracture process of large strain elasticity and large strain composite. The improved lattice model provides an effective method for fracture simulation of large strain composite.
