75), which illustrates possible inaccuracies in the measurement of the debond growth at these points due to the negligence of GIII in the debond growth FE routine. 120 135 105 G(J/m 2 ) (a) 165 180 195 150 600 450 300 150 0 90 75 60 45 30 15 0 345 210 330 225 315 240 255 270 300 285 a/b=1.7 a/b=1.4 a/b=1.1 Figure 4.14: Distribution of (a) GI+II and (b) related phase angle in the debond front. 165 180 195 150 120 135 105 60 40 20 0 90 To evaluate the accuracy of the implemented cycle jump method, the fatigue debond propagation simulation was conducted for 500 cycles. To study the effect of the control parameter on the accuracy and computational efficiency of the simulation, simulations with different control parameters, qy, were conducted. A reference simulation, simulating all individual cycles was performed to verify the accuracy of the simulations based on the cycle jump method. The debond growth at different points along the debond front vs. cycles is shown in Figure 4.16 (a) from the reference simulation. Because of a larger strain energy release rate, the debond front in the 0degree position (short radius of the ellipse) grows more than at the other points.

growth descreases as the 90-degree position (large radius of the ellipse) is approached. Figure 4.16 (b) illustrates the variation of the mode III strain energy release rate as the debond propagates. The mode III effects decrease significantly as the debond propagates and turns into a circle from its initial elliptical shape. 80 Debond front locations at: (a) 60 (b) 9 27 45 Crack length (mm) 70 60 50 40 0 18 36 54 72 90 0 100 200 300 400 500 0 100 200 300 400 500 Cycle Cycle Figure 4.16: (a) Debond growth and (b) mode III strain energy release rate vs. cycles at different points along the debond front from the reference simulation. Figures 4.17 (a) and 4.18 (b) show GI+II and phase angle vs. cycles from the reference simulation. The largest change in both diagrams occurs in the debond front location close to 0 degree due to the large crack growth in this location. It is seen that GI+II decreases from 0 until approximately 54 and increases as the 90 degree position is approached. The mode-mixity variation along the debond front decreases as the debond shape changes from an ellipse to a circle.
