AB - This paper presents the development of a model to predict the strength associated with kinkband formation and fibre splitting based on a finite fracture mechanics approach. The model is derived to handle tri-axial stress states, namely longitudinal compression combined with in-plane shear and hydrostatic pressure. Correlations with experimental data from the literature show that the physics of the problem is correctly captured.
