The fragmentation of a brittle plate subjected to dynamic biaxial loading is investigated via numerical simulations. The aim is to extend our understanding of the dynamic processes affecting fragment size distributions. A scalable computational framework b ...
Since it generates a multitude of interacting cracks, the computational modeling of fragmentation requires special attention. The discontinuous Galerkin formulation provides an efficient scalable framework to simulate non-linear dynamics of spatially discon ...
Les expériences de fragmentation de matériaux fragiles (céramiques, PMMA...) en dynamique rapide montrent que l'endommagement observé, tant au niveau du nombre et de la taille des fragments que de la contrainte à la rupture dépend fortement de la vitesse d ...
This paper is concerned with the calibration and validation of a finite-element model of dry sliding wear in metals. The model is formulated within a Lagrangian framework capable of accounting for large plastic deformations and history-dependent material b ...
