Gradient Plasticity Modeling of Geomaterials in a Meshfree Environment
Deformation and strength behavior of geomaterials in the preand post-failure regimes are of significant interest in various geomechanics applications. To address the need for development of a realistic constitutive framework, which allows for an accurate simulation of pre-failure response as well as an objective and meaningful post-failure response, a strain gradient plasticity model is formula...
متن کاملGuidelines for Constructing Strain Gradient Plasticity Theories
Issues related to the construction of continuum theories of strain gradient plasticity which have emerged in recent years are reviewed and brought to bear on the formulation of the most basic theories. Elastic loading gaps which can arise at initial yield or under imposition of non-proportional incremental boundary conditions are documented and analytical methods for dealing with them are illus...
متن کاملStrain gradient plasticity under non-proportional loading
A critical examination is made of two classes of strain gradient plasticity theories currently available for studying micrometre-scale plasticity. One class is characterized by certain stress quantities expressed in terms of increments of strains and their gradients, whereas the other class employs incremental relationships between all stress quantities and the increments of strains and their g...
متن کاملQuasi-static Evolution for a Model in Strain Gradient Plasticity
We prove the existence of a quasistatic evolution for a model in strain gradient plasticity proposed by Gurtin and Anand concerning isotropic, plastically irrotational materials under small deformations. This is done by means of the energetic approach to rate-independent evolution problems. Finally we study the asymptotic behavior of the evolution as the strain gradient length scales tend to ze...
متن کاملTwo-scale Homogenization for a Model in Strain Gradient Plasticity
Using the tool of two-scale convergence, we provide a rigorous mathematical setting for the homogenization result obtained by Fleck and Willis (J. Mech. Phys. Solids, 2004) concerning the effective plastic behaviour of a strain gradient composite material. Moreover, moving from deformation theory to flow theory, we prove a convergence result for the homogenization of quasistatic evolutions in t...
