Micromechanics of the Damage Processes

  • Chapter
Continuum Damage Mechanics Theory and Application

Part of the book series: International Centre for Mechanical Sciences ((CISM,volume 295))

Abstract

The presented study focuses on the formulation of the damage models based on the actual mesostructural geometry and the kinetics of its irreversible changes. Assuming that the process is sufficiently well defined by the volume averages of the state and internal variables, the overall compliance tensor is derived using both Taylor’s and self-consistent approximations. The kinetic equations are derived from the hierarchy of toughnesses at the mesoscale in conjunction with the Griffith’s criterion.
