A Stochastic Approach to the Growth and Coalescence of Microvoids in a Ductile Solid

  • Y. Haddad
Conference paper

Abstract

The fracture of ductile solids has been frequently referred to [1] as fracture phenomena that involve the following three essential events: (i) nucleation of voids at inclusions, (ii) growth of voids under further straining and (iii) interconnection of voids leading to final fracture.
