An anisotropic phase-field approach accounting for mixed fracture modes in wood structures within the Representative Crack Element framework
Wood exhibits complex behavior since the elasticity and the fracture evolution are
characterized by strongly anisotropic features. Furthermore, the fracture resistance of wood …
