Integrated models for fluid-driven fracture propagation and general multiphase flow in porous media are valuable to the study and engineering of several systems, including hydraulic fracturing, underground disposal of waste, and geohazard…
We derive a phase field crystal model that couples the diffusive evolution of a microscopic structure with the fast dynamics of a macroscopic velocity field, explicitly accounting for the relaxation of elastic excitations. This model…
This paper presents a hybrid modeling approach for simulating hydraulic fracture propagation in saturated porous media: ordinary state-based peridynamics is used to describe the behavior of the solid phase, including the deformation and…
Within this work, we develop a phase-field description for simulating fractures in incompressible materials. Standard formulations are subject to volume-locking when the solid is (nearly) incompressible. We propose an approach that builds…
Geologic shear fractures such as faults and slip surfaces involve marked friction along the discontinuities as they are subjected to significant confining pressures. This friction plays a critical role in the growth of these shear…
In this paper, phase field models are developed for multi-component vesicle membranes with different lipid compositions and membranes with free boundary. These models are used to simulate the deformation of membranes under the elastic…
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 propagation of a 3D crack in an heterogeneous material is studied using a phase field model. It is shown that in the case of randomly distributed inclusions of soft material in a matrix, the nature of the distribution has little effect…
The phase-field crystal model (PFC) describes crystal structures at diffusive timescales through a periodic order parameter representing the atomic density. One of its main features is that it naturally incorporates elastic and plastic…
This paper presents a unified variational framework that integrates phase-field fracture (PFF) and third-medium contact (TMC) within finite deformation hyperelasticity. The key idea is that both crack and contact are treated through…
The interface plays a critical role in the mechanical properties of composites. In the present work, a novel phase-field based cohesive zone model (CZM) is proposed for the cracking simulation. The competition and interaction between the…
An adaptive phase field method is proposed for crack propagation in brittle materials under quasi-static loading. The adaptive refinement is based on the recovery type error indicator, which is combined with the quadtree decomposition. Such…
We present a new theoretical and numerical framework for modelling mechanically-assisted corrosion in elastic-plastic solids. Both pitting and stress corrosion cracking (SCC) can be captured, as well as the pit-to-crack transition.…
We present a new phase field framework for modelling fracture and fatigue in Shape Memory Alloys (SMAs). The constitutive model captures the superelastic behaviour of SMAs and damage is driven by the elastic and transformation strain energy…
Stress distributions and the corresponding fracture patterns and evolutions in the microstructures strongly influence the load-carrying capabilities of composite structures. This work introduces an enhanced phase-field fracture model…
The $\xi$-based spatially adaptive three-field variable phase-field model for quasi-static anti-plane crack propagation is introduced. A dynamically optimized regularization length is integrated to improve computational efficiency and…
We address in this review unified analysis of phase-field models for cohesive fracture. Aiming to regularize the Barenblatt (1959) cohesive zone model, all the discussed models are distinguished by three characteristic functions, i.e., the…
The description of surface-diffusion controlled dynamics via the phase-field method is less trivial than it appears at first sight. A seemingly straightforward approach from the literature is shown to fail to produce the correct…
The study of polycrystalline materials requires theoretical and computational techniques enabling multiscale investigations. The amplitude expansion of the phase field crystal model (APFC) allows for describing crystal lattice properties on…
This paper presents an extension of the discrete element method using a phase-field formulation to incorporate grain shape and its evolution. The introduction of a phase variable enables an effective representation of grain geometry and…
