Nonlocal elasticity is used as an improved elasticity model which engenders no crack-tip stress singularities and thus makes applicable the classical stress-based failure criteria. Considering nonlocal-elastic plastic materials exposed to softening by particle decohesion in a process surface and to
## Abstract The paper presents the theory and the numerics of a thermodynamically consistent formulation of gradient plasticity at small strains. Starting from the classical local continuum formulation, which fails to produce physically meaningful and numerically converging results within localizat
