simCrackTime: Defect failure times

In simLife: Simulation of Fatigue Lifetimes

Description

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

Usage

simCrackTime(S, stress, vickers, param, cores = getOption("simLife.mc",
  1L))

Arguments

S	geometry objects system
stress	stress level for generation of failure times
vickers	Vickers hardness, see details
param	list of parameter vectors for simulation of failure times for both phases
cores	optional, number of cores for mulicore parallization with cores=1L (default) by mclapply which also can be set by a global option "simLife.mc"

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
