The operator splitting approach applied to the Navier-Stokes equations, gave rise to various numerical methods for the simulations of the dynamics of fluids. The separate work of Chorin and Temam on this subject gave birth to the so-called…
Constitutive equations are derived for the viscoelastic behavior of filled elastomers at isothermal loading with finite strains. A particle-reinforced rubber is thought of as a composite where regions with low concentrations of junctions…
The effect of velocity correlations on the equal-time density autocorrelation function, e.g. the pair distribution function or pdf, of a hard-sphere fluid undergoing shear flow is investigated. The pdf at contact is calculated within the…
The phase field method has gathered significant attention in the past decade due to its versatile applications in engineering contexts, including fatigue crack propagation modeling. Particularly, the phase field cohesive zone method…
Mechanical metamaterials designed around a zero-energy pathway of deformation, known as a mechanism, have repeatedly challenged the conventional picture of elasticity. However, the complex spatial deformations these structures are able to…
A fully-coupled-fluid-structure-piezoelectric model is presented based on the finite element method that is capable of modeling piezoelectric harvesters in the presence of free-surface flow and floating lightweight harvesters with arbitrary…
We apply the well-established theoretical method developed for geometrical nonlinearities of micro/nano-mechanical clamped beams to circular drums. The calculation is performed under the same hypotheses, the extra difficulty being to…
This paper presents fracture response of alkali-activated slag (AAS) mortars with up to 30% (by volume) of slag being replaced by waste iron powder which contains a significant fraction of elongated particles. The elongated iron particles…
As inelastic structures are ubiquitous in many engineering fields, a central task in computational mechanics is to develop accurate, robust and efficient tools for their analysis. Motivated by the poor performances exhibited by standard…
Dynamic particle-scale numerical simulations are used to show that the shear thickening observed in dense colloidal, or Brownian, suspensions is of a similar nature to that observed in non-colloidal suspensions, i.e., a stress-induced…
This work describes models and numerical approximations that describe the mechanical behavior of deformable continua with embedded structural members, such as rigid bodies, beams, shells, etc. The continuum formulation extends an idea first…
In this work, an efficient and robust isogeometric three-dimensional solid-beam finite element is developed for large deformations and finite rotations with merely displacements as degrees of freedom. The finite strain theory and…
Laminated glass achieves improved post-critical response through the composite effect of stiff glass layers and more compliant polymer films, manifested in progressive layer failure by multiple localized cracks. As a result, laminated glass…
The paper presents a two-dimensional geometrically nonlinear formulation of a beam element that can accommodate arbitrarily large rotations of cross sections. The formulation is based on the integrated form of equilibrium equations, which…
Results are presented for the phase separation process of a binary mixture subject to an uniform shear flow quenched from a disordered to a homogeneous ordered phase. The kinetics of the process is described in the context of the…
The mechanical properties of biological materials are spatially heterogeneous. Typical tissues are made up of a spanning fibrous extracellular matrix in which various inclusions, such as living cells, are embedded. While the influence of…
We outline a 2D algorithm for solving incompressible flow--structure interaction problems for mixed rigid/soft body representations, within a consistent framework based on the remeshed vortex method. We adopt the one--continuum formulation…
In order to understand the nature of friction in closely-packed granular materials, a discrete element simulation on granular layers subjected to isobaric plain shear is performed. It is found that the friction coefficient increases as the…
This study presents an analytical investigation of stress distributions in square-shaped elastic bodies subjected to concentrated compressive loads under uniaxial and biaxial conditions. By employing the Airy stress function method, we…
Purpose: This paper aims at assessing the effect of (1) the statical admissibility of the recovered solution; (2) the ability of the recovered solution to represent the singular solution; on the accuracy, local and global effectivity of…
