Micromechanics based second gradient continuum theory for shear band modeling in cohesive granular materials following damage elasticity

TLDR
In this paper, a second gradient stress-strain damage elasticity theory based on the method of virtual power is proposed. But the authors consider the strain gradient and its conjugated double stresses instead of introducing an intrinsic material length scale into the constitutive law in an ad hoc fashion.

A variational approach for a nonlinear one-dimensional damage-elasto-plastic second-gradient continuum model

TL;DR: In this article, the second-order displacement second-gradient model is extended to the case of a scalar damage field and two internal variables, i.e., accumulated plastic tension and the accumulated plastic compression, and the softening matrix is introduced as the coefficient matrix in front of the quadratic terms of the two plastic internal variables.

Two-dimensional strain gradient damage modeling: a variational approach

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors formulate a linear elastic second gradient isotropic two-dimensional continuum model accounting for irreversible damage, defined as the condition in which the damage parameter reaches 1, at least in one point of the domain.

Numerical simulations of classical problems in two-dimensional (non) linear second gradient elasticity

TL;DR: In this article, a two-dimensional solid consisting of a linear elastic isotropic material is considered and the strain energy is expressed as a function of the strain and the gradient of strain.

Element‐free Galerkin methods

TL;DR: In this article, an element-free Galerkin method which is applicable to arbitrary shapes but requires only nodal data is applied to elasticity and heat conduction problems, where moving least-squares interpolants are used to construct the trial and test functions for the variational principle.

A new Meshless Local Petrov-Galerkin (MLPG) approach in computational mechanics

TL;DR: In this article, a local symmetric weak form (LSWF) for linear potential problems is developed, and a truly meshless method, based on the LSWF and the moving least squares approximation, is presented for solving potential problems with high accuracy.
