Investigating the size effect in SENB specimens with a triaxiality and Lode angle based damage modelCoppejans, Okko (author)This master thesis is built up around two questions. First: Is it possible to calibrate a ductile failure model, where the strain at failure is a function of stress triaxiality and Lode angle, using only a single SENB specimen? The failure model that is referred to describes local failure in a finite element model to simulate ductile fracture....master thesis 2017
