Generalized Continuum: from Voigt to the Modeling of Quasi-Brittle Materials
This article discusses the use of the generalized continuum theories to incorporate the effects of the microstructure in the nonlinear finite element analysis of quasi-brittle materials and, thus, to solve mesh dependency problems. A description of the problem called numerically induced strain local...
