Data-driven continuum damage mechanics with built-in physics. [PDF]
Soft materials such as rubbers and soft tissues often undergo large deformations and experience damage degradation that impairs their function. This energy dissipation mechanism can be described in a thermodynamically consistent framework known as continuum damage mechanics.

Numerical simulation of roof cavings in several Kuzbass mines using finite-difference continuum damage mechanics approach. [PDF]
An essential stage of mine design is an estimation of the steps of the first and periodic roof caving in longwall mines. Generally, this is carried out using the field experience and can be much enhanced by numerical simulation.

A Phase-Field Approach to Continuum Damage Mechanics. [PDF]
This paper develops a phase-field approach to describe the damage within continuum mechanics. The body is associated with the standard stresses and body forces of macroscopic character. As is the case in many contexts, the phase field is a scalar variable whose time rate is governed by a constitutive equation.

Crack Propagation Calculations for Optical Fibers under Static Bending and Tensile Loads Using Continuum Damage Mechanics [PDF]
Static fatigue behavior is the main failure mode of optical fibers applied in sensors. In this paper, a computational framework based on continuum damage mechanics (CDM) is presented to calculate the crack propagation process and failure time of optical ...

The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) plays a pivotal role in support of the knee under loading. When damaged, it is known that substantial changes in the mechanics of the neighboring ligaments can be observed.

Micro-mechanics and continuum damage mechanics [PDF]
The authors start with the formulation of continuum damage mechanics (CDM) by Kachanov and its applications to some problems. Kachanov was the first who attempted to describe a creep rupture by an internal damage variable in the constitutive equations for the creep behavior. This idea was immediately related to results of macroscopic tests and could be

In this study, a new constitutive model is derived that combines the Wilshire equations with continuum damage mechanics (CDM) to enable the long-term prediction of creep deformation, damage, and rupture.
