We consider nonlocal nonlinear potentials and estimate the rate of convergence of time stepping schemes to the peridynamic equation of motion. We begin by establishing the existence of $H^2$ solutions over any finite time interval. Here…
We present the main existence result for quasistatic crack growth in the model proposed by Dal Maso, Francfort, and Toader, and prove some qualitative properties of the solutions.
This paper concerns the analysis and implementation of a novel iterative staggered scheme for quasi-static brittle fracture propagation models, where the fracture evolution is tracked by a phase field variable. The model we consider is a…
We develop and demonstrate the first general computational tool for finite deformation static and dynamic dislocation mechanics. A finite element formulation of finite deformation (Mesoscale) Field Dislocation Mechanics theory is presented.…
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 consider a mixed finite element method for approximating the solution of nearly incompressible elasticity and Stokes equations. The finite element method is based on quadrilateral and hexahedral triangulation using primal and dual…
Finite element analysis is one of the most used tool for studying femoral neck fracture. Nerveless, consensus concerning either the choice of material characteristics, damage law and /or geometric models (linear on nonlinear) still remains…
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…
We provide a variational approximation of Ambrosio-Tortorelli type for brittle fracture energies of piecewise-rigid solids. Our result covers both the case of geometrically nonlinear elasticity and that of linearised elasticity.
Variational phase-field models of brittle fracture are powerful tools for studying Griffith-type crack propagation in complex scenarios. However, as approximations of Griffith's theory-which does not incorporate a strength criterion-these…
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…
We study the lower semicontinuity for functionals defined on compact sets in R^2 with a finite number of connected components and finite length which depend on their normal vector. We apply the result to the study of quasi-static growth of…
This paper addresses the question of the interplay between relaxation and irreversibility through quasi-static evolutions in damage mechanics, by inquiring the following question: can the quasi-static evolution of an elastic material…
In a recent contribution, Kumar, Bourdin, Francfort, and Lopez-Pamies (J. Mech. Phys. Solids 142:104027, 2020) have introduced a comprehensive macroscopic phase-field theory for the nucleation and propagation of fracture in linear elastic…
We study a fully discrete finite element approximation of a model for unsteady flows of rate-type viscoelastic fluids with stress diffusion in two and three dimensions. The model consists of the incompressible Navier--Stokes equation for…
With the fundamental objective of establishing the universality of the Griffith energy competition to describe the growth of large cracks in solids \emph{not} just under monotonic but under general loading conditions, this paper puts forth…
In this work we derive by Gamma-convergence techniques a model for brittle fracture linearly elastic plates. Precisely, we start from a brittle linearly elastic thin film with positive thickness $\rho$ and study the limit as $\rho$ tends to…
In this work, we derive a reliable and efficient residual-typed error estimator for the finite element approximation of a 2d cathodic protection problem governed by a steady-state diffusion equation with a nonlinear boundary condition. We…
Fitted finite element methods are constructed for a singularly perturbed convection-diffusion problem in two space dimensions. Exponential splines as basis functions are combined with Shishkin meshes to obtain a stable parameter-uniform…
This work comprises a detailed theoretical and computational study of the boundary value problem for transversely isotropic linear elastic bodies. General conditions for well-posedness are derived in terms of the material parameters. The…
