An accelerated staggered scheme for variational phase-field models of brittle fracture
From MaRDI portal
Publication:2236975
Abstract: There is currently an increasing interest in developing efficient solvers for phase-field modeling of brittle fracture. The governing equations for this problem originate from a constrained minimization of a non-convex energy functional, and the most commonly used solver is a staggered solution scheme. This is known to be robust compared to the monolithic Newton method, however, the staggered scheme often requires many iterations to converge when cracks are evolving. The focus of our work is to accelerate the solver through a scheme that sequentially applies Anderson acceleration and over-relaxation, switching back and forth depending on the residual evolution, and thereby ensuring a decreasing tendency. The resulting scheme takes advantage of the complementary strengths of Anderson acceleration and over-relaxation to make a robust and accelerating method for this problem. The new method is applied as a post-processing technique to the increments of the solver, hence, the implementation can be done with minor modifications to already available software. Moreover, the cost of combining the two acceleration schemes is negligible. The robustness and efficiency of the method are demonstrated through numerical examples.
