A microstructural defect-orientation informed phase field model
Micro-cracks, micro-voids and other such defects, which typically coalesce to form macroscopic cracks, could be represented through incompatible, local rotations of material points, i.e. micro-regions. Specifically, based on a micropolar or Cosserat continuum-like hypothesis that requires attaching directors to material points, we track the evolving frame rotation and hence the microstructural orientation during quasi-brittle damage. We introduce a critical energy release rate incorporating the wryness tensor, which in turn is a function of the micro-rotation field and its gradient within the damaged region. The (pseudo) rotation field appears as additional degrees of freedom to describe a frame field, whose evolution is particularly significant within a diffused region of evolving damage as obtained through a phase-field formulation of brittle fracture. We emphasize that, unlike micropolar continua where it contributes to elastic energy, the wryness tensor appears only in the fracture energy in our approach. Thus, without damage, the solid conforms to the classical continuum. By making suitable modifications to the terms within the elastic energy and applying the principle of virtual work, we arrive at the governing partial differential equations (PDEs). For assessing the proposed framework, we choose a specific form of energy density and demonstrate, through numerical examples, the effect of the newly introduced parameters. The classical phase-field model is readily recovered by switching off the micro-rotation. Additionally, we explore a potential application of this model in representing and propagating initial defects.
