A Nonlocal Model for Coupled Damage-Plasticity Incorporating Gradients of Internal State Variables at Multiscales
The thermodynamically consistent formulation and the subsequent numerical implementation of a gradient enhanced continuum coupled damage-plasticity model as a constitutive framework to model ill-posed localization problems is presented. By the introduction of "nonlocal," gradient-enhanced...
