Damage Model for Dissipative Materials with Generalized Non-Linear Strength Theory

Abstract

This paper builds the formulations of damage model for dissipative materials with generalized non-linear strength theory. The proposed model reflects the internal structural configuration and damage behavioure. The structural evolution parameters are introduced to account for the progressive loss of the internal structure. The proposed damage model is proposed by generalized non-linear strength theory, the capability of the models in predicting behavior of clay has been examined.
