Modeling dynamic fragmentation of brittle materials usually implies to choose between a discrete description of the number of fragments and a continuum approach with damage variables. A damage model that can be used in the whole range of loadings (from quasi-static to dynamic ones) is developed. The

The purpose of the paper is to find a simple way which can be used to determine the critical damage factor for perfect brittle rock. Phenomenological method is employed to introduce a new characteristic variabl-ontinuous degree, which represents the distance between two contiguous micro-flaws in roc
In this paper, a stochastic damage model is proposed for the rupture prediction of a brittle, multi-phase material. The model, based on the macrocrack-microcrack interaction, characterizes damage by microcracking and fracture by macrocracking. The model incorporates uncertainties in locations, orien
