Abstract

AbstractThe aim of this study is to investigate elasticity based damage models in which the isotropic damage is driven by different history parameters under uniaxial setting. This leads to a suitable history parameter for the description of material strain‐softening realistically. Existing damage evolution laws from literatures are used to compare the results using strain and energy equivalence principles. A suitable damage evolution law which is similar to Weibull's failure distribution is proposed in the framework of energy equivalence. Numerical results exhibit good agreement with experimental results. (© 2016 Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
