A self-consistent Eulerian rate type model for finite deformation elastoplasticity with isotropic damage (Q1841301): Difference between revisions

The proposed new model is shown to be self-consistent in the sense that the incorporated rate equation for damaged elastic response is exactly integrable to yield a damaged elastic relation between the effective Kirchhoff stress and elastic logarithmic strain. The authors derive the rate form of the model in a rotating frame in which the foregoing logarithmic rate is defined, and from it obtain an integral form of the model. The former is found to have the same structure as the counterpart of small deformation theory, and may be appropriate for numerical integration. The latter indicates the effect of finite rotation and deformation history on the current stress and on the hardening and damage behavior. Further, it is pointed out that in the foregoing self-consistency sense of formulating the damaged elastic response, the suggested model is unique among all objective Eulerian rate type models of this kind with infinitely many objective stress rates to be chosen. As a test problem, the finite simple shear response of the model is studied by numerical integration.
