Micromechanically Inspired Phenomenological Damage Model

Abstract: The paper suggests a phenomenological damage theory for perfectly brittle response of solids. The theory is based on the micromechanics of brittle deformation processes. The inelastic change of the compliance is identified as the flux and a properly averaged energy release rate as the affinity. The paper identifies conditions under which the damage potential exists. The proposed model is illustrated on the examples of plain concrete specimens subjected to uniaxial tension and compression.

“…Assuming uncoupled elasticity and plasticity or that the elastic properties depend on damage variables but not on plastic strain Ep, it is then possible to show that the ClausiusDuhem inequality can be separated into two parts [1] One notices that the introduction of the damage dissipative potential or damage surface is analogous to the conventional yield surface which envelopes all possible changes of state in the space of affinities that can be reached without causing any new damage development. If the rate of increase in the surface area of a particular microcrack is controlled only by its own conjugate thermodynamic force, the macropotential cJ> can be obtained as summation of all conjugate forces (or micropotentials) (for a more detailed discussion, see Rice [19] and Krajcinovic et al [7]). That a damage surface exists in brittle materials such as concrete and rocks has been proven by Holcomb and Costin [20] using the acoustic emission technique so that during the loading stage following unloading, no acoustic emissions will be recorded until the damage surface is reached.…”

“…Quasi-brittle materials such as concrete, rock, and ceramic composites, exhibit a complex mechanical behavior at the macro-scale, including stress-induced damage and stiffness anisotropy, non-linear stress/strain relationships and volumetric dilation, unilateral effects due to crack closure, and a transition from brittle to ductile behavior at increasing confining stress [Chiarelli et al, 2003, Krajcinovic et al, 1991. All of these effects can be explained by the nucleation and propagation of micro-cracks at the grain boundaries and/or from pore spaces.…”
