ABSTRACT

Rupture in geomaterials is often preceded by a localization of the deformations within thin bands. The strain localization is thus an important process, which has been studied both experimentally and theoretically. This paper summaries main observations on localized phenomena and proposes theoretical and numerical tools to characterize localization processes. To deal with interactions occurring between the different phases of porous media, a regularization technique based on the second gradient model has been extended to multiphysic couplings.

RÉSUMÉ

La rupture dans les géomatériaux est souvent précédée par la formation de fines bandes de localisation des déformations. La formation de ces bandes de localisation est un processus non négligeable, étudié à la fois sur le plan expérimental et sur le plan théorique. Cet article résume les principaux phénomènes observés sur les processus localisés et propose quelques outils théoriques et numériques nécessaires à la caractérisation de ces processus de localisation. Afin de tenir compte des interactions entre les différentes phases des milieux poreux, une technique de régularisation basée sur des modèles de type second gradient est étendue aux couplages mutiphysiques.
