Micromechanical modeling of the effect of stress triaxiality on the strain to failure of ductile cast iron

•Periodic micromechanical models are developed for the nodular cast iron system.•Concurrent ductile and shear damage models are implemented for the phases.•Stress triaxiality is demonstrated to deeply influence damage mechanism and failure strain. This paper presents modeling of the tensile and fail...
