Abstract
There is a wide range of fracture criteria available in the literature to simulate the ductile fracture in large structures. Almost all criteria depend in some form on the mesh size and some criteria also account the effect of the stress state on the fracture ductility. Furthermore, a material model employed could considerably influence the analysis results. Therefore, in this study, four different fracture criteria, three different mesh densities and two different material models are used to simulate ship collision with a rigid bulb. Thereby, plastic dissipation energy, force-displacement curves and structural failure mechanism is compared between different fracture criteria. Advantages and disadvantages of each criterion are discussed.
