“…As reported in Section 2.3.1, using the M-integral for evaluating DSIFs requires the definition of auxiliary displacement, stress, and strain fields concerning an analytical solution of a fracture problem for which DSIFs are known. Yu and Kuna [45] have pointed out two choice options as auxiliary fields concerning dynamic fracture problems. The first option consists of using the displacement and stress fields relative to Williams' asymptotic solutions [51], traditionally adopted in numerical simulations of crack propagation processes under quasi-static conditions (see Section A1 in Appendix A).…”

“…In this case, the interaction energy integral method initially proposed by Yau et al [58] is largely used to compute mixedmode SIFs separately, being implemented in most commercial FEM software, such as Ansys and Abaqus. Further details on the interaction integral method and its numerical implementation are reported in [59].…”

The characterization of fatigue fracture mechanics in gold-MEMS notched specimens is presented in this work. A test microstructure with a central notched specimen is specifically designed and built to perform on-chip fatigue test. The central specimen undergoes cyclic loading due to the application of alternating voltage. The variation in the microstructure deflection is measured using an optical profilometer and is attributed to the crack growth in the gold material, causing the variation in the specimen stiffness. The occurrence of pull-in condition is used as a fracture detector, then the fracture of the specimen can be recognized without performing scanning electron microscope inspections during the fatigue test. Crack propagation in the test specimen is simulated through a coupled-field electromechanical fracture finite element model and the computed crack path is compared to the results obtained from scanning electron microscope analyses. Finally, Paris' law is applied and the number of cycles to failure is computed by exploiting the results of the fracture model and experimental measurements. Both experimental and numerical results demonstrate that the notch acts as a stress and strain raiser, fostering crack nucleation from the notch root, and that the linear elastic fracture mechanics theory is still valid to describe crack propagation in micro-size samples.
“…The toe crack and root crack have been modelled at the same time, in order to consider the interaction between the two cracks. In solving SIFs, the interaction integral method [66] has been applied, with a total of 6 contours requested. For the numerical stability, the result is determined by averaging from the 2nd to 6th contours [57].…”
