Homogenization principles and their application to continuum damage mechanics
Source abstract
Abstract
The concept of homogenization is utilized herein to develop simplified methodologies for predicting the response of solids that develop multi-scale damage. This methodology is cast within a computational framework in order to produce efficient algorithms for a variety of media including granular and layered composites. Examples are given to exemplify the usefulness of this approach.
