Abstract
Internal damage due to fissuration results in an overall anisotropic material behaviour. A scalar damage parameter does not allow one to model a direction dependent response of continuously damaging solids. Employing the idea that the scalar damage parameter can be associated with an appropriate strain a damage tensor related to strains is introduced. The overall elastic properties are determined using a simplified form of the sensor function representations and the stress-strain relations regarding the overall response are given. For combined stress states an uncoupled damage theory is derived for materials with no lateral deformability under axial stress. Both brittle-ductile and elastic-brittle cases are studied using circular plates, for the elastic-brittle case only the governing differential equation are presented.
