The second gradient model is applied in a strain localization analysis and localization limiters depending on the geometry and mechanical parameters of the layered material are obtained. publisher: University of Padova date: 2012-06 type: Book Section type: PeerReviewed identifier: Bacigalupo, Andrea and Gambarotta, Luigi Second grade modeling for the strain localization analysis of layered materials with damaging interfaces.
