13th International Conference on Fracture June 16–21, 2013, Beijing, China -5- 3.4. Model calibration static results Figure 5. The temperature distribution on the upper surface Figure 6. The temperature distribution along y axis on the lower and upper surface Due to the symmetry of the problem in terms of geometry, loads (heat source) and boundary condition (there is no convection across symmetrical planes) we built a quarter-plate model and thereby save calculation time. A fine-mesh was built near the heat source to capture the delicate changes (Figure 7) so that the gradient temperature through the thickness of the plate is exhibited clearly. It should be noted that the quarter model results are the same as the complete model (described in Figure 5 and 6). Figure 7. The distribution and size of the temperature on the quarter model, described with fine mesh near the heat source
