Coupled damage and plasticity models derived from energy and dissipation potentials

A theoretical framework is defined that allows plasticity and damage models of inelastic behaviour to be combined within a consistent approach. Much emphasis is placed on the fact that, within this framework, the entire constitutive response is specified through two potential functions, with no addi...
