simCrackTime: Defect failure times

Description

Simulation of individual defect failure times. For a secondary phase only the defect type "delamination" is considered.

Usage

simCrackTime(S, stress, vickers, param, fun = lapply)

# S3 method for oblate simCrackTime(S, stress, vickers, param, fun = lapply)

# S3 method for prolate simCrackTime(S, stress, vickers, param, fun = lapply)

# S3 method for cylinder simCrackTime(S, stress, vickers, param, fun = lapply)

# S3 method for sphere simCrackTime(S, stress, vickers, param, fun = lapply)

Arguments

S

geometry objects system

stress

the applied stress level

vickers

Vickers hardness

param

simulation parameter list of parameter vectors for both phases

fun

optional, if fun=mclapply use mclapply for to parallelize simulations

Value

a list with the following elements:

  • id id of particle

  • U crack failure time

  • V delamination failure time

  • T the minimum of both failure times

  • B failure type, either 0 for particle crack or 1 for particle delamination

  • A projection area set to zero for later use

  • label either label="P" for primary phase or label="F" for secondary phase
