Zeros Fracture
Phase-field fracture simulation with FEM: where cracks start, how they grow, and which interfaces let go first.
- Material fracture & crack propagation
- Interfacial delamination
- Fatigue & thermal cycling
- Calibration & validation
We are simulation specialists focused on one question: how, where and when structures fail. Phase-field fracture tells you how parts fail; the material point method handles the coupled multi-physics around them. We turn both into design decisions you can act on.
Discover our approach →Every Zeros Fracture analysis uses the phase-field method. One consistent framework covers bulk cracking, delamination and fatigue, so results compare across your whole design.
Cracks start from energy minimisation and grow along the path the physics chooses — no initial flaw, no predefined path, no remeshing.
Branching, merging and multiple interacting cracks emerge naturally, without tracking rules or special treatment.
Interface phase-field models capture debonding between layers and its competition with cracking through the bulk.
Fatigue degradation under cyclic loading, linking load history to crack growth and lifetime.
Phase-field damage driven by CTE mismatch, process-induced residual stress and temperature cycling.
Phase-field fracture at finite strains, for soft, ductile and highly deformable materials.
We review geometry, loads, materials and observed failures, and agree on the questions the model must answer.
Phase-field parameters — toughness, strength, interface properties — are identified from your test data or literature, with stated assumptions.
Mesh-converged FE analyses, checked against experiments wherever they exist.
A clear report with design changes ranked by impact — plus the models, if you want them.
