A damage function formulation for nonlocal coupled damage-plasticity model of ductile metal alloys

Continuum Damage Mechanics (CDM) extends the principles of continuum mechanics to include material degradation (softening and failure) and can be used within the finite element framework with greater ease than "discontinuous" models. CDM considers cracks as bands of damaged material, damag...
