Abstract This paper proposes a probabilistic life calculation method of NdFeB based on brittle fatigue damage model. Firstly, Zhu-Wang-Tang (ZWT) constitutive model considering strain rate is established, and based on this, a numerical co-simulation model for NdFeB life calculation is constructed. The life distribution diagram of NdFeB under different stress levels is obtained after simulation. Secondly, a new model of brittle fatigue damage based on brittle damage mechanism is proposed. Then the parameters in the model are identified according to the life distribution diagram of NdFeB and the parameter distribution of the damage evolution model when More >

Abstract The paper deals with the novel multiscale approaches for modelling of both quasi-brittle and ductile damage responses of heterogeneous materials. The damage is induced at the microstructural level and, after the homogenization procedure, it is included in the constitutive stiffness of the material point at macrolevel. The derived algorithms are implemented into the finite element software ABAQUS. The new two-scale transition procedures have been verified on the standard benchmark examples. More >
