Modeling of Stress-State-Dependent Damage and Failure of Ductile Metals

摘要

The paper discusses an anisotropic continuum damage model. It takes into account the effect of stress state on damage and failure conditions as well as on evolution equations of damage strains. To validate the proposed framework experiments with biaxially loaded specimens and corresponding numerical simulations are performed covering a wide range of stress states. In addition, scanning electron microscope images of the fracture surfaces show different fracture modes corresponding to stress states revealed by numerical analyses.
