Abstract
In the present paper, we propose a numerical modeling of fracture behavior of High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) using different fracture mechanics approaches as well as a simulation of the static behavior by calibrating the static traction curves in order to highlight the feasibility of the model in reproducing the results of the EWF. The numerical determination of the fracture parameters by the global approach which will be validated by a simulation by means of DENT specimens and results obtained are compared to those of experimental results.Keywords
