Gurson model

Greetings,

As I was struggling for several months to find Gurson's PhD thesis report and as I received many emails from people who were also not finding this reference and asking for help, let me share a scan of the thesis report that I managed to get thanks to a kind and helpfull professor.

Best,

Marieme Imene

Hello All. This is my first blog entry in iMechanica!. This post is about my new paper with Prof. Amine Benzerga entitled "A constitutive model for plastically anisotropic solids with non-spherical voids", accepted for publication in JMPS (URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.jmps.2010.03.007 ). In case you are not able to view the online version, a preprint of the paper is attached. This paper should be of interest to anyone working in the ductile fracture area. Your comments and feedback are welcome.
