Continuum damage mechanics based probabilistic fatigue life prediction for metallic material
Based on continuum damage mechanics, a probabilistic method of predicting high-cycle fatigue life for metallic material is proposed. First, macro-meso two-scale stress–strain equations are established by combining Eshelby-Kroner localization law and ...

Delamination Prediction by Continuum Damage Mechanics [PDF]
The present study describes the basic principles of a general damage approach for laminates and demonstrates its prediction possibilities for simulating the complete fracture phenomenon in the case of the initiation and propagation of delamination. In this paper, the Damage Mechanics Approach is presented to solve delamination problems such as the ...

Simulating ice-shelf extent using damage mechanics
Inaccurate representations of iceberg calving from ice shelves are a large source of uncertainty in mass-loss projections from the Antarctic ice sheet. Here, we address this limitation by implementing and testing a continuum damage-mechanics model in a ...
