Currently, research on the dynamic damage characteristics of sintered NdFeB is still in its early stages. Previous dynamic mechanical experiments on sintered NdFeB have shown that it is a strain rate-sensitive material. So, it is necessary to establish an appropriate damage constitutive model to describe the dynamic mechanical behavior of sintered NdFeB, with the aim of expanding its practical application range. This paper first establishes a damage evolution model by combining the Weibull distribution with a wing crack propagation model that considers crack spacing. Then, the damage model is integrated with the Zhu-Wang-Tang (ZWT) constitutive model to create the ZWT damage constitutive model. The model is fitted against previous experimental data to determine the specific parameters. Finally, to verify the accuracy of the newly established damage constitutive model, it is compared with the damage constitutive model proposed by Li. The comparison results fully affirmed the accuracy of the newly established ZWT damage constitutive model. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
