Modeling damage and fracture within strain-gradient plasticity

In this work, the influence of the plastic size effect on the fracture process of metallic materials is numerically analyzed using the strain-gradient plasticity (SGP) theory established from the Taylor dislocation model. Since large deformations generally occur in the vicinity of a crack, the numer...
