In the present work, the evolution of damage in periodic composite materials is investigated through a novel finite element-based multiscale computational approach. The methodology is developed by means of the original combination of…
We propose a new direction-dependent model for the unilateral constraint involved in the phase field approach to fracture and also in the continuous damage mechanics models. The construction of this phase field model is informed by…
The seminal paper of Francfort and Marigo [FM] introduced a variational formulation for Griffith fracture that has resulted in substantial theoretical and practical progress in modeling and simulating fracture. In particular, it led to the…
We introduce a class of models based on near crack tip degradation of materials that can account for fracture growth under cyclic loads below the Griffith threshold. We incorporate the gradual degradation due to a cyclic load through a flow…
The phase field fracture method has emerged as a promising computational tool for modelling a variety of problems including, since recently, hydrogen embrittlement and stress corrosion cracking. In this work, we demonstrate the potential of…
The phase-field model for fracture, despite its popularity and ease of implementation comes with its set of computational challenges. They are the non-convex energy functional, variational inequality due to fracture irreversibility, the…
On the basis of energy conservation law an without utilizing Linear Fracture Mechanics (LFM) postulates the equation of a real-structure material elastic-plastic fracture has been derived. With the help of this equation the force and energy…
Compressive-shear fracture is commonly observed in rock-like materials. However, this fracture type cannot be captured by current phase field models (PFMs), which have been proven an effective tool for modeling fracture initiation,…
The modeling of fracture problems within geometrically linear elasticity is often based on the space of generalized functions of bounded deformation $GSBD^p(\Omega)$, $p\in(1,\infty)$, their treatment is however hindered by the very low…
Fracture is a ubiquitous phenomenon in most composite engineering structures, and is often the responsible mechanism for catastrophic failure. Over the past several decades, many approaches have emerged to model and predict crack failure.…
We study the $\Gamma$-convergence of damage to fracture energy functionals in the presence of low-order nonlinear potentials that allows us to model physical phenomena such as fluid-driven fracturing, plastic slip, and the satisfaction of…
We derive a homogenized mechanical model of a masonry-type structure constituted by a periodic assemblage of blocks with interposed mortar joints. The energy functionals in the model under investigation consist in (i) a linear elastic…
We provide an adaptive finite element approximation for a model of quasi-static crack growth in dimension two. The discrete setting consists of integral functionals that are defined on continuous, piecewise affine functions, where the…
This work is devoted to the analysis of the interplay between internal variables and high-contrast microstructure in inelastic solids. As a concrete case-study, by means of variational techniques, we derive a macroscopic description for an…
A novel FFT-based phase-field fracture framework for modelling fatigue crack initiation and propagation at the microscale is presented. A damage driving force is defined based on the stored energy and dislocation density, relating…
This paper presents a framework for modeling failure in quasi-brittle geomaterials under different loading conditions. A micromechanics-based model is proposed in which the field variables are linked to physical mechanisms at the microcrack…
We present a phase field-based framework for modelling fatigue damage in Shape Memory Alloys (SMAs). The model combines, for the first time: (i) a generalised phase field description of fracture, incorporating multiple phase field…
Fatigue fracture is one of the main causes of failure in structures. However, the simulation of fatigue crack growth is computationally demanding due to the large number of load cycles involved. Metals in the low cycle fatigue range often…
We construct, from first principles, a covariant local model for scalar fractonic matter coupled to a symmetric tensor gauge field. The free gauge field action is just the one of the Blasi-Maggiore model. The scalar sector, describing…
Over the last half-century, linear viscoelastic models for crack growth in soft solids have flourished but their predictions have rarely been compared to experiments. In fact, most available models are either very approximate or cast in…
