Advanced Anisotropic Damage Model Fully Coupled with Anisotropic Plasticity

International audience; In this work, a thermodynamically-consistent framework is used to formulate a non-associative finite strain anisotropic elastoplastic model fully coupled with anisotropic ductile damage. The finite strain assumption is considered using specific large strains kinematics based on multiplicative decomposition of the total transformation gradient and assuming a small elastic strains. The objectivity principle fulfillment is assumed using the well-known rotating frame formulation. The effective variables are defined to introduce the effect of the anisotropic damage on the other variables through the total energy equivalence assumption. The non-associative plasticity framework, for which equivalent stresses in yield function and in plastic potential are separately defined, allows better plastic anisotropy description. The evolution equations for overall dissipative phenomena are deduced from the generalized normality rule applied to the plastic potential while the consistency condition is still applied to the yield function. Applications are made to an RVE with generic material parameters by considering non-proportional loading paths. For each loading path the effect of the anisotropic plasticity on the damage evolution is studied in the context of finite strains.
