• A three-dimensional cohesive-frictional grain-boundary micromechanical model for intergranular degradation and failure in polycrystalline materials (2013, background): “(18), it is worth observing that, to take the analysis beyond the critical points, it might be necessary to implement some numerical scheme to improve the convergence of the analysis in the post-critical branch [105, 106], like for example generalpurpose arc-length procedures [107, 108] or some addi”
