In this paper, an anisotropic failure model proposed by Ganjiani [Ganjiani, M., 2020. A
damage model for predicting ductile fracture with considering the dependency on stress …

This paper aims to present a Continuum Damage Mechanics based fracture model. Two
yield surfaces, plastic and damage, are utilized to develop the model. A modified ductile …

All damage and failure models, describing either the evolution of microvoids, the
development of shear bands or local rupture, rely on the knowledge of the hardening …

In the absence of geometrical constraints, ductile fracture has been identified as the
predominant mode of failure for structural elements under extreme loads, the prediction of …

In this article, we provide the details of the predictive simulations performed by the University
of Texas team in response to the 2012 Sandia Fracture Challenge (Boyce et al. in The …

In this study, the ductile fracture of the alloy metal is analyzed. First, the key factors affecting
the initiation of ductile fracture are investigated. Then, a new uncoupled ductile fracture …

The aim of this paper is to gain insight for the transition of fracture initiation sites in notched
tensile specimens. For this purpose, a stress triaxiality-dependent viscoplastic damage …

The present paper deals with a modification of the stress triaxiality-based Lemaitre damage
model to predict the ductile fracture at low stress triaxiality and shear-dominated loadings …

In this contribution, a numerical assessment of three isotropic constitutive models is
performed in order to identify their applicability and reliability in the prediction of ductile …

The ductile fracture behaviour of metallic materials is strongly dependent on the material's
stress state and loading history. This paper presents a concept of damage initiation and …
