Abstract

The original Gurson model for porous materials has undergone numerous modifications in order to improve its adequacy with experimental or numerical results. In this chapter various modifications of Gurson’s model and models created on the basis of the idea of Gurson’s model are presented. This chapter includes the following issues: (i) development of Gurson’s model, (ii) development of models for nucleation, growth and coalescence of voids and (iii) modification of Gurson’s model for failure prediction under shear deformation.
