Abstract

We derive a cohesive fracture model by homogenizing a periodic composite material whose microstructure is characterized by the presence of brittle inclusions in a reticulated unbreakable elastic structure.

Keywords.: Γ-convergence; homogenization; free-discontinuity problems; cohesive zone model
