Popis: The Averaged Strain Energy Density (ASED) criterion is validated for the failure prediction of notched Polylactide Acid specimens fabricated by Fused Deposition Modeling by means of experimental data and the results are compared to the Theory of Critical Distances. The common approach of estimating the ASED control volume radius based on the measured fracture toughness was shown to be suboptimal, arguably because of the difficulties of obtaining the fracture toughness with such complex materials. Therefore, a more robust approach is evaluated in analogy of the TCD and it is shown to successfully extend the range of applicability of the ASED criterion.
