Abstract
Following the introduction of the concept of continuous spall damage as a replacement for the customary discrete description, existing spall criteria are generalized to continuous measures of damage and are classified according to their dependence on the history of the continuum field variables. A compound‐damage‐accumulation theory is proposed in which the rate of damage accumulation depends on the existing damage, in addition to the applied stress. Several examples of the application of the new theory to the correlation of existing data are given.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
