Microvoid multistage nucleation model and its application in analysis of micro damage and fracture

In this paper, the microvoid multistage nucleation model 14,15] suggested by the authors of this paper has been studied on the micro ductile damage and fracture of metallic material under large elastic-plastic deformation.Using this model, the analyses of micro damage and fracture for various axisymmetric tensile specimens and for TPB and CCP cracked specimens have been carried out. And the results from these analyses on damage development and fracture are in good agreement with the experimental ones for axisymmetric specimens and reasonable for cracked specimens from the microscopic point of view.The project surported by National Science Foundations of China.
