Journal ArticleDOI
Simulation of ductile crack initiation and propagation by means of a non-local Gurson-model
TL;DR: In this article, a non-local GTN model in an implicit gradient-enriched formulation is employed to simulate ductile crack growth under small-scale yielding conditions numerically.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the numerical integration of a class of pressure-dependent plasticity models including kinematic hardening
Uwe Mühlich,W. Brocks +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors extended the Aravas algorithm to incorporate kinematic hardening and showed that the number of primary unknowns for the Newton iteration can be reduced to two scalar strain variables and the consistent tangent can be obtained explicitly.
Journal ArticleDOI
Size effects in ductile failure of porous materials containing two populations of voids
TL;DR: In this article, a non-local Gurson model is used to describe the secondary void population in the matrix material, and the effect of the size of secondary voids on the ductile failure behavior of porous materials containing two populations of voids of different size is investigated numerically by means of 3D cell model calculations.
Journal ArticleDOI
A modeling approach for the complete ductile–brittle transition region: cohesive zone in combination with a non-local Gurson-model
TL;DR: In this article, a non-local Gurson-type model is employed together with a cohesive zone to simulate both failure mechanisms simultaneously, and the model captures qualitative effects of corresponding experiments such as the cleavage initiation in front of a stretch zone, the formation of secondary cracks and possible crack arrest.
Journal ArticleDOI
A three-dimensional finite element for gradient elasticity based on a mixed-type formulation
TL;DR: In this article, a novel three-dimensional finite element for gradient elasticity, BR153L9, is presented, which is a straightforward extension of the two-dimensional element QU34L4 developed by Shu et al. (1999) [1].
