Description
Summary:We develop a thermodynamically consistent, fractional visco-elasto-plastic model coupled with damage for anomalous materials. The model utilizes Scott-Blair rheological elements for both visco-elastic/plastic parts. The constitutive equations are obtained through Helmholtz free-energy potentials for Scott-Blair elements, together with a memory-dependent fractional yield function and dissipation inequalities. A memory-dependent Lemaitre-type damage is introduced through fractional damage energy release rates. For time-fractional integration of the resulting nonlinear system of equations, we develop a first-order semi-implicit fractional return-mapping algorithm. We also develop a finite-difference discretization for the fractional damage energy release rate, which results into Hankel-type matrix-vector operations for each time-step, allowing us to reduce the computational complexity from \(\mathcal{O}(N^3)\) to \(\mathcal{O}(N^2)\) through the use of Fast Fourier Transforms. Our numerical results demonstrate that the fractional orders for visco-elasto-plasticity play a crucial role in damage evolution, due to the competition between the anomalous plastic slip and bulk damage energy release rates.
