The characteristic of effective properties of physical processes in heterogeneous media is a basic modeling and computational problem for many applications. As standard numerical discretization of such multiscale problems (e.g. with classical finite elemen ...
It is important to consider the microstructure of a material when studying the macroscopic mechanical properties. Although special equipments have been used for micromechanics study through experimental tests, it is limited by instruments and reproducibili ...
This work focuses on the finite element discretization of boundary value problems whose solution features either a discontinuity or a discontinuous conormal derivative across an interface inside the computational domain. The interface is characterized via ...
We study the dynamics of successive slip events at a frictional interface with finite-element simulations. Because of the viscous properties of the material, the stress concentrations created by the arrest of precursory slip are not erased by the propagati ...
In this paper we formulate and analyze two non-conforming high order strategies for the approximation of elastic wave problems in heterogeneous media, namely the Mortar Spectral Element Method and the Discontinuous Galerkin Spectral Element Method. Startin ...
Small relative perturbations to the entries of an essentially nonnegative matrix introduce small relative errors to entries of its exponential. It is thus desirable to compute the exponential with high componentwise relative accuracy. Taylor series approxi ...
Discontinuities in rock masses greatly influence stress wave transmission. Before performing numerical modeling on complicated cases, benchmarking modeling must be performed first to validate the numerical code through comparison with theoretical solutions ...
It is necessary to take into account the micro discretization of natural rock when studying its macroscopic failure behavior. This requirement has resulted in renewed and increased interest in the discrete or framework/lattice numerical modeling techniques ...
Fibre reinforced materials are increasingly employed in aerospace, naval and civil structures because of their low weight and high specific strength and stiffness. A major concern is the inherent susceptibility of composite laminates to barely visible dama ...
A finite element heterogeneous multiscale method is proposed for the wave equation with highly oscillatory coefficients. It is based on a finite element discretization of an effective wave equation at the macro scale, whose a priori unknown effective coeff ...
