Acp 2024 Lecture 7

The document discusses damage mechanics and strain localization, highlighting the non-reversible nature of damage and the complexities of stress-strain relationships. It emphasizes that strain localization can result in multiple solutions for a single stress value, leading to ill-posed problems. Additionally, it notes that the load-displacement curve is influenced by the discretization of the model, raising concerns about the reliability of results.
