Title Integral representation of damage kinetics in materials
Author(s) A. I. Iskakbaev (Almaty)
Abstract We study the dependence of damage accumulation rate for isotropic materials on the initial damage, the loading regime, the trajectory of damage accumulation, temperature, and the sign of stresses. Kinetic equations of damage accumulation in terms of stresses or strains are represented as Volterra integral equations of the second kind. These equations allow us to identify the form of the damage kernel using the laws governing the long-term strength of materials. We propose a method for determining optimal creep and long-term strength parameters of materials. It is shown that the heredity-type conditions of damage summation obtained in the present paper are more adequate for the prediction of material durability than the Bailey-Robinson approach.

In modern fracture mechanics, an important role is played by the phenomenological approach which is applied not only to the statement of applied problems, but also to the solution of theoretical problems, in particular, problems connected with the evaluation of the service life of structures with a given loading history and the damage accumulation process in a real body [1]. In order to solve such problems, one uses not only the equations describing the kinetics of the stress-strain state, but also the kinetic equations of damage accumulation and fracture criteria [2-13].

The existing statements of the damage accumulation problem in terms of the damage measure ω have either the form of hereditary integral operators [6] or the form of kinetic equations for the change rate of the damage measure [2-5], and in each equation of damage accumulation the number of independent constants varies from two to three (or more). In the general case, the problem becomes weakly well-posed and it is possible that there is a set of coefficient combinations satisfying equations with three or more coefficients under the condition ω=1 [4].

It is difficult to describe the actual character of damage accumulation by the phenomenological method, since the parameter ω used in the kinetic equations cannot be measured experimentally. Thus, the correct choice of the state parameter remains an important problem of fracture mechanics. In [3, 7, 8], the following quantities are taken as damage parameters: relative variation of strength, relative variation of strain, relative variation of specific energy dissipation. The aim of this paper is to apply the ideas of the works mentioned above to the study of dispersed fracture of a material whose tensile strength differs from its compression strength.
