Abstract

This contribution presents an approach to determine the fracture mechanical parameters energy release rate and crack-driving force efficiently with the material force method expanded for dissipative materials. A reliable test procedure for the evaluation of these parameters is presented. Another focus lies on the investigation of time-dependent effects in this context induced by viscoelasticity.
