On a damage-plasticity approach to model concrete failure
A damage-plasticity constitutive model for the description of fracture in plain concrete is presented. Two approaches, the local model comprising the adjustment of the softening modulus and the nonlocal model based on spatial averaging of history ...

Variation of Magnetic Memory Signals in Fatigue Crack Initiation and Propagation Behavior
To monitor fatigue crack initiation and propagation, and to judge the fatigue damage status of ferromagnetic material, fatigue bending tests of four-point single edge notch bend (SENB4) specimens were carried out.

Micro-damage model of gas-bearing coal under load and instability identification criteria
The distribution of pores and skeletons within coal reservoirs significantly affects the migration of gases and the occurrence of gas dynamic disasters. To further explore the micro-damage mechanisms in gas-containing coal, a detailed study of the micro ...

FINITE ELEMENT STUDY OF VOID BEHAVIOR UNDER LOW STRESS TRIAXIALITY
Based on finite element simulation,a 3D cell model subjected to low stress triaxiality,with a spherical void located in center was developed. The distribution rule of stress and strain was investigated,as well as the developing trend of volume of void ...
