This paper presents a computational model for the finite element plastic damage analysis of ductile flexural plates. The phenomenological damage model proposed by Lemaitre is adopted here. The damage effect parameters of a cross-section are defined and employed to account for the damage effect across the thickness of a bending plate. Similar to the effective stresses used in many damage models, the effective stress couples are introduced in this work and used in the yield function. The damage criterion is defined in terms of damage strain energy release rates. Based on the damage node model proposed here, the elastoplastic-damage stiffness matrix of element is derived. When the corresponding elastic stiffness matrix is given explicitly, the resulting elastoplastic-damage stiffness matrix can be evaluated without use of numerical integration. The feature of the expicit form of element stiffness matrix makes the computational model proposed here very efficient. Several numerical examples of ductile plastic damage analysis of plates are also given in this work to demonstrate the validity of the computational model.

A coupled plastic damage model with two damage scalars is proposed to describe the nonlinear features of concrete. The constitutive formulations are developed by assuming that damage can be represented effectively in the material compliance tensor. Damage evolution law and plastic damage coupling are described using the framework of irreversible thermodynamics. The plasticity part is developed without using the effective stress concept. A plastic yield function based on the true stress is adopted with two hardening functions, one for tensile loading history and the other for compressive loading history. To couple the damage to the plasticity, the damage parameters are introduced into the plastic yield function by considering a reduction of the plastic hardening rate. The specific reduction factor is then deduced from the compliance tensor of the damaged material. Finally, the proposed model is applied to plain concrete. Comparison between the experimental data and the numerical simulations shows that the proposed model is able to describe the main features of the mechanical performances observed in concrete material under uniaxial, biaxial, and cyclic loadings.

This article presents a three-dimensional isotropic elastoplastic damage model for concrete structures. The plasticity of concrete is described by a nonassociated flow rule, using a three-parameter yield function as well as a modified Drucker–Prager-type potential. The damage of concrete is seen as a contribution work of tensile and compressive damage, with the evolution histories driven by the internal tensile and compressive variables, respectively. The iterative solution of plasticity and damage is carried out according to the concept of operator split, where a return-mapping algorithm as well as a substepping strategy is used. The consistent tangent stiffness considering the recursive relationship among substeps is derived. For the solution of global iteration, a dissipation-based arc-length method is employed. Good agreements are found in comparisons between numerical results and experimental data on both elementary and structural levels. Furthermore, the sensitivities of parameters that control strain softening are investigated.

Since the traditional model cannot sufficiently reflect the multifield coupling problem, this paper established an elastoplastic stress-seepage-damage analysis model considering the seepage field, stress field, and damage field. Simultaneously, the elastoplastic damage model involves many parameters and is difficult to determine. An inverse analysis program is compiled based on the differential evolution algorithm, and the surrounding rock damage parameters are inverted. Finally, the elastoplastic stress-seepage-damage coupling program and the damage parameter displacement back analysis program is compiled using C++ language. Then, the program is used to calculate the coupling problem of tunnel elastoplastic stress-seepage-damage. The results show that the proposed elastoplastic damage constitutive model can well describe the mechanical behavior of rock. The computational procedure can also simulate practical engineering problems, which can provide specific guidance for site construction.

A mixed cohesive damage model was introduced in this paper to study the delamination of composite T-joint components under pulling load. Prediction together with part of test results was presented in this paper. Modelling prediction had a good agreement with experimental work. This study indicated that the mixed damage scale plays an important role in the progressive damage analysis of T-joint components. The mixed damage scale properly reflected the effects of interaction between different damage modes in simulating damage propagation of an object with strong coupled effects. This coupled damage effect was considered from the material softening stage to final crack. Thus a proper damage accumulation was accounted since materials begin damage. An example given in this paper shown the delamination in the deltoid region of T-joint was simulated very well. Finally, a concept of novel materials was proposed for the deltoid region of T-joint in this paper. Initial investigation by simulating delamination presented that the damage resilience of composite T-joint with novel composite materials in deltoid region significantly improved its damage resilience.

Material properties affect the surface finishing in ultra-precision diamond cutting (UPDC), especially for aluminum alloy 6061 (Al6061) in which the cutting-induced temperature rise generates different types of precipitates on the machined surface. The precipitates generation not only changes the material properties but also induces imperfections on the generated surface, therefore increasing surface roughness for Al6061 in UPDC. To investigate precipitate effect so as to make a more precise control for the surface quality of the diamond turned Al6061, it is necessary to confirm the compositions and material properties of the precipitates. Previous studies have indicated that the major precipitate that induces scratch marks on the diamond turned Al6061 is an AlFeSi phase with the composition of Al86.1Fe8.3Si5.6. Therefore, in this paper, to study the material properties of the AlFeSi phase and its influences on ultra-precision machining of Al6061, an elastoplastic-damage model is proposed to build an elastoplastic constitutive model and a damage failure constitutive model of Al86.1Fe8.3Si5.6. By integrating finite element (FE) simulation and JMatPro, an efficient method is proposed to confirm the physical and thermophysical properties, temperature-phase transition characteristics, as well as the stress–strain curves of Al86.1Fe8.3Si5.6. Based on the developed elastoplastic-damage parameters of Al86.1Fe8.3Si5.6, FE simulations of the scratch test for Al86.1Fe8.3Si5.6 are conducted to verify the developed elastoplastic-damage model. Al86.1Fe8.3Si5.6 is prepared and scratch test experiments are carried out to compare with the simulation results, which indicated that, the simulation results agree well with those from scratch tests and the deviation of the scratch force in X-axis direction is less than 6.5%.

Abstract The rock materials surrounding the underground excavations typically demonstrate nonlinear mechanical response and irreversible behavior in particular under high in-situ stress states. The dominant causes of irreversible behavior are plastic flow and damage process. The plastic flow is controlled by the presence of local shear stresses which cause the frictional sliding. During this process, the net number of bonds remains unchanged practically. The overall macroscopic consequence of plastic flow is that the elastic properties (e.g. the stiffness of the material) are insensitive to this type of irreversible change. The main cause of irreversible changes in quasi-brittle materials such as rock is the damage process occurring within the material. From a microscopic viewpoint, damage initiates with the nucleation and growth of microcracks. When the microcracks length reaches a critical value, the coalescence of them occurs and finally, the localized meso-cracks appear. The macroscopic and phenomenological consequence of damage process is stiffness degradation, dilatation and softening response. In this paper, a coupled elastoplastic-logarithmic damage model was used to simulate the irreversible deformations and stiffness degradation of rock materials under loading. In this model, damage evolution & plastic flow rules were formulated in the framework of irreversible thermodynamics principles. To take into account the stiffness degradation and softening on post-peak region, logarithmic damage variable was implemented. Also, a plastic model with Drucker-Prager yield function was used to model plastic strains. Then, an algorithm was proposed to calculate the numerical steps based on the proposed coupled plastic and damage constitutive model. The developed model has been programmed in VC++ environment. Then, it was used as a separate and new constitutive model in DEM code (UDEC). Finally, the experimental Oolitic limestone rock behavior was simulated based on the developed model. The irreversible strains, softening and stiffness degradation were reproduced in the numerical results. Furthermore, the confinement pressure dependency of rock behavior was simulated in according to experimental observations.

Die numerische Simulation des Tragverhaltens von Beton- und Stahlbetonkonstruktionen mit nicht-linearen Finite-Elemente-Modellen gewinnt in der konstruktiven Ingenieurpraxis zunehmend an Bedeutung. In kommerziellen Finite-Elemente-Programmen stehen dem Anwender unterschiedliche Möglichkeiten zur Abbildung des Betonverhaltens in Form von plastischen Materialmodellen zur Verfügung. Zur Anwendung dieser Materialmodelle ist dabei in der Regel die Kenntnis des Betontragverhaltens unter einaxialer Druck- und Zugbeanspruchung erforderlich. Im vorliegenden Beitrag werden verschiedene Ansätze zur mathematischen Beschreibung dieser konstitutiven Beziehungen für Normalbeton und ultrahochfesten Beton (UHPC) vorgestellt und im Hinblick auf ihre Anwendbarkeit in plastischen Materialmodellen untersucht. Darauf aufbauend werden numerische Simulationen mit einem plastischen Schädigungsmodell unter Verwendung eines einheitlichen Parametersatzes durchgeführt und mit den Ergebnissen experimenteller Untersuchungen verglichen. Die Untersuchungen umfassen hierbei Materialprüfungen an Normalbeton und UHPC unter verschiedenen ein- und mehraxialen Spannungszuständen. Durch die Wahl geeigneter konstitutiver Beziehungen kann für die untersuchten Spannungszustände eine gute Übereinstimmung zwischen simuliertem und experimentell ermitteltem Betontragverhalten erreicht werden.

Abstract In this research, nonlinear dynamics and characteristics of a micro–plate system under electrostatic forces on both sides are studied. A novel model, which takes micro-scale effect and damage effect into account, is established on the basis of the Talreja’s tensor valued internal state damage model and modified couple stress theory. According to Hamilton principle, the dynamic governing equations of the size-dependent micro–plate are derived by variational method and solved via Galerkin method and the fourth order Runge-Kutta method. The effects of damage variable and material length scale parameter on bifurcation and chaos of the micro–plate system are presented with numerical simulations using the bifurcation diagram, Poincare map. Results provide a theoretical basis for the design of dynamic stability of electrically actuated micro- structures.
