Abstract
► Investigation of Mode I and mixed mode cracks using strain gradient plasticity. ► A large strain finite element model (Hutchinson-Fleck theory) was developed. ► The length scale where a strain gradient plasticity is necessary was identified. ► The plastic zone size and shape dependence on the length scales was shown.
