Abstract
The objective of this work is the development of a finite element interface formulation tailored to capture localization within geometrically nonlinear solid mechanics. In this context, strong discontinuities are considered as the final failure mechanism within localization problems. The failure kinematics are governed by a jump in the nonlinear deformation map across a discontinuity surface. In the finite element discretization the interface element is endowed with these kinematics. As a consequence, the interface stiffness is dominated by the weighted spatial localization tensor. Based on these developments a localization capturing procedure is advocated and is computationally highlighted.
