On dispersed microdamageability of elastic-brittle materials under deformation

The variant of a continuum model describing joint deformation and accumulation of microdamages in elastic-brittle materials is presented. The microdamageability is considered as the process of origin of a system of flat elliptic or circular microcracks randomly dispersed over volume, the concentration of which increases with a load. The damageable material is simulated by the continuous medium, for which the elastic symmetry and non-linear law...
