Abstract
In this paper we study the asymptotic behaviour of phase-field functionals of Am brosio and Tortorelli type allowing for small-scale oscillations both in the volume and in the diffuse surface term. The functionals under examination can be interpreted as an instance of a static gradient damage model for heterogeneous materials. Depending on the mutual vanishing rate of the approximation and of the oscillation parameters, the effective behaviour of the model is fully characterised by means of Gamma-convergence.
