TITLE:INNOVATIVE THERMO-ELASTOVISCOPLASTIC DAMAGE-HEALING MODEL FOR BITUMINOUS COMPOSITES
ABSTRACT: Innovative strain energy based thermo-elastoviscoplastic damage-self healing formulations for bituminous pavement materials are presented for numerical simulations of experimental data. A class of elastoviscoplastic two-parameter constitutive damage-self healing models, based on a continuum thermodynamic framework, is developed within an initial elastic strain energy based formulation. An Arrhenius-type temperature term is uncoupled with the Helmholtz free energy potential to account for the effect of temperature. The governing incremental damage and healing evolutions are coupled in volumetric and deviatoric parts and characterized through the net stress concept. New computational algorithms are systematically proposed, based on the two-step operator splitting methodology. Comparisons with experimental measurements and model predictions are demonstrated.

TITLE: CONTINUUM DAMAGE IN QUASI-BRITTLE MATERIALS: A REVIEW OF RECENT RESULTS OBTAINED WITH THE HELP OF LATTICE MODELS
ABSTRACT: The degradation of quasi-brittle materials encompasses micro-cracks propagation and interactions, and finally coalescence in order to form a macro-crack. These phenomena are located within the so-called Fracture Process Zone (FPZ). This process has been properly described with the help of nonlocal continuum damage formulations for several decades. Issues such as the size and shape effects on fracture that have been observed experimentally could be captured with the help of such formulations. On the other side, some unresolved issues remained, such as incorrect damage initiation conditions or boundary effects. The initial formulation in which the internal length was considered to be a constant material property has been enhanced over the years in order to address such issues. Most of these proposals, however, consisted into ad-hoc phenomenological adjustments that could not be motivated by rational arguments.
This presentation aims at providing a further insight on the evolution of the correlation between damage events, or the internal length in a continuum setting, with the help of statistical analysis in lattice models that mimic the continuum response in a discrete way. These mesoscale models have been found to be much more effective than standard nonlocal models for the prediction of size and shape effects. The statistical analysis relies on the implementation of Ripley's functions, which have been developed in order to exhibit patterns in image analyses. It is shown how a correlation length may be extracted from the Ripley's function analysis. Comparisons between experimental (acoustic emission results) and numerical evolutions of extracted correlation lengths are performed and the evolution of the internal length in the continuum model is obtained.
The lecture is concluded by an illustrating example of the capabilities of the lattice model dealing with hydraulic fracturing. For this, the action of the fluid pressure on the skeleton is described by Biot's theory. Fluid flow in a lattice dual to the mechanical one is represented by considering Poiseuille's flow. The numerical model is compared to existing analytical solutions. Then, the influence of a natural joint of finite length crossed by the fracture is shown.

TITLE:Fully coupled constitutive equations in the framework of generalized continua for metal forming simulation
ABSTRACT: Nowadays, it is well established that when subjected to various loading paths, materials may exhibit severe strain localization inside narrow bands. One or more of these localization zones may lead to initiation and evolution of different kinds of damage and even can transform to propagating macroscopic cracks. This damage occurrence influences strongly the material behavior inside the localization zones and interacts deeply with the different involved physical phenomena (inelastic flow, hardening …) modifying severely the distribution of the mechanical fields. This talk is dedicated to the formulation of advanced fully coupled constitutive equations in the framework of generalized micromorphic continua based on the first gradient of some selected state variables. The associated numerical aspects will be briefly discussed and some applications to metal forming by large plastic strain will be shown.

TITLE: Fundamental Issues in Continuum Damage and Healing Mechanics
ABSTRACT: Certain fundamental issues are discussed in continuum damage and healing mechanics including introducing some new concepts. The new concepts of damageability and integrity of materials are introduced. This is followed by introducing what is called the integrity field and the healing field. These issues are abstractions at the moment but their practical applications will become clear in the future. In addition, a new exponential damage variable in introduced. Finally, the healing process is dissected into several stages that are examined. It is hoped that these new fundamental concepts will open the way for new and innovative research in damage and healing mechanics in the future.

TITLE: A unified phase-field/gradient-damage theory for the modeling of failure in solids
ABSTRACT: Damage and fracture mechanics are two paradigms developed to deal with cracks induced failure in solids and structures through distinct methodologies. Aiming to bridge the in-between gap, we address a unified phase-field/gradient-damage theory for both brittle fracture and quasi-brittle failure under quasi-static and dynamic loading scenarios. Either calculus of variation or irreversible thermodynamics is sufficient to formulate the model, without introducing other ad hoc assumptions. For the first time the energetic equivalence between fracture and damage mechanics is established, resulting in a length-scale insensitive and discretization objective material model. Numerical aspects and benchmark validation are also presented in this lecture.
