Conventional viscoelastic characterization of brain white matter (BWM), typically described using Prony series models, remains a largely empirical representation that is difficult to interpret physically. Growing evidence suggests that…

Fracture in aluminum alloys with precipitates involves at least two mechanisms, namely, ductile fracture of the aluminum-rich matrix and brittle fracture of the precipitates. In this work, a coupled crystal plasticity-phase field model for…

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…

This paper outlines an energy-minimization finite-element approach to the computational modeling of equilibrium configurations for nematic liquid crystals under free elastic effects. The method targets minimization of the system free energy…

Adaptive finite element methods are a powerful tool to obtain numerical simulation results in a reasonable time. Due to complex chemical and mechanical couplings in lithium-ion batteries, numerical simulations are very helpful to…

The purpose of this paper is to provide analytical and numerical solutions of the formation and evolution of the localized plastic zone in a uniaxially loaded bar with variable cross-sectional area. An energy-based variational approach is…

The quasistatic rate-independent damage combined with linearized plasticity with hardening at small strains is investigated. The fractional-step time discretisation is devised with the purpose to obtain a numerically efficient scheme…

In this paper we prove the existence of solutions for a class of viscoelastic dynamic systems on time--dependent cracked domains, with possibly degenerate viscosity coefficients. Under stronger regularity assumptions we also show a…

We investigate a local modification of a variable-order fractional wave equation, which describes the propagation of diffusive wave in viscoelastic media with evolving physical property. We incorporate an equivalent formulation to prove the…

We investigate the nonlinear vibration of a fractional viscoelastic cantilever beam, subject to base excitation, where the viscoelasticity takes the general form of a distributed-order fractional model, and the beam curvature introduces…

In this work, a consistent viscoplasticity formulation is derived from thermodynamical principles and employing the concept of continuum elastic corrector rate. The proposed model is developed based on the principle of maximum viscoplastic…

It has recently been discovered that the viscoelastic properties of cells are inherent markers reflecting the complex biological states, functions and malfunctions of the cells. Although the extraction of model parameters from the…

In this paper, we study a time-fractional initial-boundary value problem of Kirchhoff type involving memory term for non-homogeneous materials. The energy argument is applied to derive the a priori bounds on the solution of the considered…

This study presents the framework to perform a stability analysis of nonlocal solids whose response is formulated according to the fractional-order continuum theory. In this formulation, space fractional-order operators are used to capture…

Continuum models of active nematic gels have proved successful to describe a number of biological systems consisting of a population of rodlike motile subunits in a fluid environment. However, in order to get a thorough understanding of the…

We obtain the first rigorous derivation of an incompressible Navier-Stokes-Fourier system with self-consistent and time-dependent forcing terms from the inelastic hard-spheres Boltzmann equation associated to the relevant case of…

There is an ever-growing need for predictive models for the elasto-viscoplastic deformation of solids. Our goal in this paper is to incorporate recently developed out-of-equilibrium statistical concepts into a thermodynamically consistent,…

We study the viscoelastic response of amorphous polymers using theory and simulations. By accounting for internal stresses and considering instantaneous normal modes (INMs) within athermal non-affine theory, we make parameter-free…

This paper investigates the thermoelastic fracture response of a transversely isotropic piezoelectric strip containing a vertical insulated crack under transient thermal shock loading and pre-existing stress fields. The analysis is…

A variety of complex fluids consist in soft, round objects (foams, emulsions, assemblies of copolymer micelles or of multilamellar vesicles -- also known as onions). Their dense packing induces a slight deviation from their prefered…
