Abstract:A micro-cell size dependent damage law is proposed by the multi-scale damage representation to remedy the mesh sensitivities involving in the numerical simulations. The homogenization based multi-scale damage representation is firstly introduced in obtaining the macro-damage evolution from micro-cell analysis. Then, the micro-cells with different sizes are generated and the corresponding simulations are given. Based on the simulation results, we define the micro-cell size dependent damage law. Finally, the acc… Show more
