A consistent use of the Gurson-Tvergaard-Needleman damage model for the R-curve calculation [PDF]
The scope of the present work is to point out a consistent simulation procedure for the quasi-static fracture processes, starting from the micro-structural characteristics of the material.

The investigation on the formability of 7075-T6 aluminum alloy at elevated temperatures is significant due to its low plasticity at room temperature. Meso-Damage mechanics suggests that the growth and accumulation of micro-voids is an important factor ...

Ductile damage modelling with locking‐free regularised GTN model
SummaryThe major goal of this work is to develop a robust modelling strategy for the simulation of ductile damage development including crack initiation and subsequent propagation. For that purpose, a Gurson‐type model is used. This model class, as many other damage models, leads to significant material softening and must be used within a large ...

Application of Gurson-Tvergaard-Needleman constitutive model to the tensile behavior of reinforcing bars with corrosion pits. [PDF]
Based on meso-damage mechanics and finite element analysis, the aim of this paper is to describe the feasibility of the Gurson-Tvergaard-Needleman (GTN) constitutive model in describing the tensile behavior of corroded reinforcing bars.

GTN Damage Modelling of the AA6063 Using Image Processing
In this paper, an innovative way of calculating the Gurson–Tvergaard–Needleman parameter has been developed for AA 6063. AA 6063 is an aluminum alloy comprising the alloying ingredients magnesium and silicon. The Aluminum Association maintains the standard that governs its composition.

Fracture simulation of welded RHS X-joints using GTN damage model
A welded rectangular hollow section (RHS) X-joint exposed to tension loading has three typical fracture-related failure modes: Punching shear failure (PSF), Brace failure (BF), and Chord side wall failure (CSWF). Prediction of these failure modes by finite element (FE) simulations requires modelling of the material damage.

The research mainly focused on the forming limit curves (FLC) of the 6061 Al alloy subjected to heat treatments with various (1 mm, 1.6 mm, 2 mm, and 2.5 mm) sheet metal thicknesses. Five peculiar heat treatments, including natural aging temper (T4) and highest-strength (T6) temper, were devised to study the influence of heat treatments on the ...
