Abstract

Material damage caused by distributed microscopic voids is an important topic for wide variety of engineering problems. The evolution of these distributed microscopic voids and their effects on the mechanical behaviour of materials have been studied by the Continuum Damage Mechanics (CDM) approach. Due to their high strength-to-weight ratio, aluminum alloys are extensively used in engineering structures, aircraft constructions etc. A brief review of the damage mechanics literature and the CDM approach applied on various ductile materials and mostly aluminum alloy’s is summarized here in this paper
