Abstract

The fracture energy for hardwood was modeled using finite element modeling (FEM) software DIANA. The results of the model was compared to the fracture energy experimental research performed by Boerenveen (2019). The fracture energy results obtained by the model are similar to the results obtained from the experimental research. An model fracture energy over tested fracture energy ratio of 1.02 was found.
