Title: Three-dimensional finite deformation viscoelastic model accounting for damage effects

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5528245

In this paper, a fully three-dimensional finite deformation isotropic viscoelastic model is developed with the following characteristics: (a) Uncoupled bulk response over any range of deformations; (b) Generalization of the classical standard solid of the linearized theory; and (c) Both for relaxation times either extremely small or very large, the model exactly reduces to the classical Mooney-Rivlin model of rubber elasticity. In addition, a damage mechanism is incorporated into the model of the type previously developed by the authors in the context of the linearized theory. This is a three-dimensional isotropic damage mechanism based on the maximum value attained by a scalar function of certain deviatoric Lagrangian strain measure. The resulting 5-parameter finite deformation damage model has been implemented in the finite element computer program FEAP. The coding architecture also is compatible with the NIKE2D codes currently in use at LLNL.
