Gradient - enhanced strain softening material models
Classical continuum models exhibit strong mesh dependency during strain softening. For such materials, the phenomenon may be regularized via the gradient-enhanced nonlocal formulation. The paper discusses the implicit gradient framework and demonstrates that standard nonlocal enhancement may serve only as a partial localization limiter. The over-nonlocal approach, where the weight for the nonlo...
متن کاملSimulation of strain localization with gradient enhanced damage models
The incorporation of higher order strain gradients into the constitutive equations of continuum damage mechanics is presented. Thereby, not only scalar-valued isotropic damage models but also anisotropic damage models allowing for directional dependent stiness degradation are elaborated. An elegant possibility of describing anisotropic material behavior based on the microplane theory is demons...
متن کاملNonlinear Analysis of Strain-Softening Damage
The paper reviews the modeling of damage by the microplane model and presents extensions required for cyclic loading. The general microplane constitutive model is implemented in a three-dimensional finite element code and used in damage and bifurcation analysis of various structures. The results of the analysis are compared with test results and some of the comparisons are shown in the present ...
متن کاملCrack Tip Equation of Motion in Dynamic Gradient Damage Models
We propose in this contribution to investigate the link between the dynamic gradient damage model and the classical Griffith’s theory of dynamic fracture during the crack propagation phase. To achieve this main objective, we first rigorously reformulate two-dimensional linear elastic dynamic fracture problems using variational methods and shape derivative techniques. The classical equation of m...
متن کاملNumerical investigation of dynamic brittle fracture via gradient damage models
Background: Gradient damage models can be acknowledged as a unified framework of dynamic brittle fracture. As a phase-field approach to fracture, they are gaining popularity over the last few years in the computational mechanics community. This paper concentrates on a better understanding of these models. We will highlight their properties during the initiation and propagation phases of defect ...
