Abstract:In the present work, a cellular automata finite element model (CAFE) was developed to model the ductile-brittle transition of a Grade A ship plate steel. Therefore, ductile and brittle cellular automata (CA) arrays of cells were created in the model to integrate material data at microstructural level, along with the ductile and brittle fracture processes. Microstructural data was analysed with Weibull distributions and incorporated in CAFE model using random number generators, along with ductile and brittle fr… Show more
