On the influence of damage evolution in an incompressible material with matrix displaying tension-compression asymmetry

A strong difference between the behavior in tension versus compression is observed at the polycrystal level, if either twinning or non-Schmid type slip are contributors to plastic deformation at the single crystal level. Despite recent progress in modeling the effects of this asymmetry in yielding, its influence on damage evolution remains a challenge. In a recent paper null [1] null we presented a new constitutive model for voided polycrystal...
