The variational theory of fracture: diffuse cohesive energy and elastic-plastic rupture
This communication anticipates some results of a work in progress [1], addressed to explore the efficiency of the diffuse cohesive energy model for describing the phenomena of fracture and yielding. A first local model is partially successful, but fails to reproduce the strain softening regime. A mo...
