An electro-chemo-mechanical phase-field formulation is developed to simulate pitting and stress corrosion in polycrystalline materials. The formulation incorporates dependencies of mechanical properties and corrosion potential on…
A phase-field description of brittle fracture is employed in the reported four-point bending analyses of monolithic and laminated glass plates. Our aims are: (i) to compare different phase-field fracture formulations applied to thin glass…
Fractures are ubiquitous in the subsurface. The flow and mechanical properties of these fractures are controlled by its compliance or stiffness. Characterizing fracture compliance and conductivity is crucial in applications such as fault…
We propose a novel variationally consistent membrane wrinkling model for analyzing the mechanical responses of wrinkled thin membranes. The elastic strain energy density is split into tensile and compressive terms via a spectral…
This paper treats possible solutions for vibration mitigation in reduced-order model of partially-filled liquid tank under impulsive forcing. Such excitation may lead to hydraulic impacts applied on the tank inner walls. Finite stiffness of…
Atomic scale simulations at finite temperature are an ideal approach to study the thermodynamic properties of magnetic transition metals. However, the development of interatomic potentials explicitly taking into account magnetic variables…

High energy materials such as polymer bonded explosives are commonly used as propellants. These particulate composites contain explosive crystals suspended in a rubbery binder. However, the explosive nature of these materials limits the…
The vibrating behaviour of thin structures is affected by prestress states. Hence, the effects of thermal prestress are important research subjects in view of ambient vibration monitoring of civil structures. The interaction between…

We derive from particle-level dynamics a constitutive model describing the rheology of two-dimensional dense soft suspensions below the jamming transition, in a regime where hydrodynamic interactions between particles are screened. Based on…
A three-way coupled thermo-mechanical fracture model is presented to predict the damage of brittle ceramics, in particular {\alpha}-SiC, over a wide range of temperatures (20-1400 C). Predicting damage over such a range of temperatures is…
Hydraulic tension fractures were produced in porous limestones using a specially designed hydraulic cell. The 3D geometry of the samples was imaged using X-ray computed microtomography before and after fracturation. Using these data, it was…
