A Multi-Scale Numerical Method for the Study of Size-Scale Effects in Ductile Fracture
The use of a stress-strain constitutive relation for the undamaged material and a traction-separation cohesive crack model with softening for cracking has been demonstrated to be an effective strategy to predict and explain the size-scale effects on the mechanical response of quasi-brittle material...
