In this work, we introduce a time memory formalism in poroelasticity model that couples the pressure and displacement. We assume this multiphysics process occurs in multicontinuum media. The mathematical model contains a coupled system of…
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…
Recent years have seen a significant interest in using phase field approaches to model hydraulic fracture, so as to optimise a process that is key to industries such as petroleum engineering, mining and geothermal energy extraction. Here,…
Cracking of rocks and rock-like materials exhibits a rich variety of patterns where tensile (mode I) and shear (mode II) fractures are often interwoven. These mixed-mode fractures are usually cohesive (quasi-brittle) and frictional.…
We propose a phase-field model of dynamic fracture based on the Ambrosio--Tortorelli's approximation, which takes into account dissipative effects due to the speed of the crack tips. By adapting the time discretization scheme contained in…
We propose a novel variational phase-field model for fracture in anisotropic materials. The model is specifically designed to allow a more flexible calibration of crack nucleation than existing anisotropic fracture formulations, while…
While crack nucleation and propagation in the brittle or quasi-brittle regime can be predicted via variational or material-force-based phase field fracture models, these models often assume that the underlying elastic response of the…
In this article, we propose a thermodynamically consistent phase-field model for thermo-mechanical fracture and provide an open-source implementation of the proposed model using a recently developed finite element toolbox, Gridap in Julia.…
The enforcement of global energy conservation in phase-field fracture simulations has been an open problem for the last 25 years. Specifically, the occurrence of unstable fracture is accompanied by a loss in total potential energy, which…
We establish a way to handle main collective fluctuations in correlated quantum systems based on a Fluctuation Local Field concept. This technique goes beyond standard mean-field approaches, such as Hartree-Fock and dynamical mean-field…
A novel phase-field for ductile fracture model is presented. The model is developed within a consistent variational framework in the context of finite-deformation kinematics. A novel coalescence dissipation introduces a new coupling…
Numerical simulations of brittle fracture using phase-field approaches often employ a discrete approximation framework that applies the same order of interpolation for the displacement and phase-field variables. Most common is to use linear…
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…

Computational modeling of faulting processes is an essential tool for understanding earthquake mechanics but remains challenging due to the structural and material complexities of fault zones. The phase-field method has recently enabled…
