In the present work, a rate-dependent cohesive zone model for the fracture of polymeric interfaces is presented. Inverse calibration of parameters for such complex models through trial and error is computationally tedious due to the large…
We continue our study of the exact solutions for steady-state cracks in ideally brittle viscoelastic lattice models by focusing on mode I in a triangular system. The issues we address include the crack velocity versus driving curve as well…
Geometrically frustrated elastic ribbons exhibit, in many cases, significant changes in configuration depending on the relation between their width and thickness. We show that the existence of such a transition, and the scaling at which it…
We investigate the role of architected thin films in the interfacial failure properties of bi-layer composites. Our results show that, while graded structures can be used to prescribe failure at the interface, they do not offer significant…
In this paper, we first provide precise tensorial formulae for the asymptotic operators of contact instantons $w:\dot \Sigma \to Q$ and of pseudoholomorphic curves $u:(\dot\Sigma,j) \to (Q \times \mathbb R, \widetilde J)$ on the…
In this paper, we study phase transitions in a slender circular cylinder composed of a compressible hyperelastic material with a non-convex strain energy function. We aim to construct the asymptotic solutions based on an axisymmetrical…
This work addresses an efficient Global-Local approach supplemented with predictor-corrector adaptivity applied to anisotropic phase-field brittle fracture. The phase-field formulation is used to resolve the sharp crack surface topology on…
The strength and stability of frictional interfaces, ranging from tribological systems to earthquake faults, are intimately related to the underlying spatially-extended dynamics. Here we provide a comprehensive theoretical account, both…
We investigate the finite bending and the associated bending instability of an incompressible dielectric slab subject to a combination of applied voltage and axial compression, using nonlinear electro-elasticity theory and its incremental…
We derive a systematic construction for form factors of relevant fields in the thermal perturbation of the tricritical Ising model, an integrable model with scattering amplitudes described by the $E_7$ bootstrap. We find a new type of…
Stokes perturbative solution of the nonlinear (boundary value dependent) surface gravity wave problem is known to provide results of reasonable accuracy to engineers in estimating the phase speed and amplitudes of such nonlinear waves. The…
The dynamics of the normal/superconducting interface in type-I superconductors has recently been derived from the time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau theory of superconductivity. In a suitable limit these equations are mapped onto a…
This contribution presents a diffuse framework for modeling cracks in heterogeneous media. Interfaces are depicted by static phase-fields. This concept allows the use of non-conforming meshes. Another phase-field is used to describe the…
In this paper, a method of local perturbations, previously successfully applied to decompose the problem of elasticity in the system of connected thin rods and beams [Kolpakov and Andrianov, 2013], is used to study the asymptotic behaviour…
The elastic field around a crack opening is known to be described by continuum linearised elasticity in leading order. In this work, we explicitly develop the next term in the atomistic asymptotic expansion in the case of a Mode III crack…
Interface cracking is one of the most prominent failure modes in fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) composites. Recent trends in high-tech applications of FRP composites exploit the limits of the load bearing capacity, generally encompassing…
Phase-field fracture models are known to overestimate the crack area, a discrepancy that compromises the accuracy of fracture predictions. This issue stems from the diffuse crack representation and numerical artifacts, such as strain…
The effects of shear on energy release rate and mode mixity in a symmetric sandwich beam with isotropic layers and a debond crack at the face sheet/core interface are investigated through a semi-analytic approach based on two-dimensional…
The classical variational phase-field model for brittle fracture effectively predicts the growth of large pre-existing cracks. However, the modeling of crack nucleation continues to be a significant challenge. Crack nucleation under uniform…
In this paper, we augment existing techniques for simulating flexible objects to include models for crack initiation and propagation in three-dimensional volumes. By analyzing the stress tensors computed over a finite element model, the…
