A novel gradient-extended anisotropic two-surface damage-plasticity model for finite deformations.

Abstract

A material model to deal with finite plasticity coupled with anisotropic damage will be presented. The presentation addresses mesh regularization problems and a novel approach for using gradient-extension in the context of damage. Since finite strains are considered, the strain measures chosen are logarithmic strains. To give the interested audience an idea of the behavior of the model, numerical examples are used for illustration.
