Abstract [en]
The present paper studied the buckling phenomena of membranes under tensile load with and without central crack.
The studies of fracture mechanics are tested within certain conditions of membranes.
The tensile test has been performed with Al-foil in different crack lengths, i.e. 0 mm, 12.5 mm, 25 mm and 50 mm.
The numerical analysis has been carried out by Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and comparing with the theoretical and experimental results.
In this paper, the critical buckling behavior is tested, validated and compared.
Same observation of patterns in experiments and the simulation are found.
The influence of scale factor for imperfection setting are tested.
