Abstract: | The objective of this work is to present a simplified, nonetheless representative first stage of a phenomenological model to predict the crack evolution of ductile fracture in single crystals. The proposed numerical approach is carried out by merging a conventional well- stablished elasto-plastic crystal plasticity model and a well-known phase-field model (PFM) modified to predict ductile fracture. A two-dymensional initial boundary-value problem of ductile fracture is introduced considering a single crystal Nickel-base superalloy material. the model is implemented into the finite element context subjected to a one-dimensional tension test (displacement-controlled).
