With increasing computer capabilities, numerical modeling of two-phase flows has developed significantly over the last few years. Although there are two main categories, namely 'one' fluid and 'two' fluid methods, the 'one' fluid methods are more commonly ...
Fretting-corrosion is a material degradation process resulting from the combined action of a corrosive environment and small displacement fretting wear. In this work, the fretting-corrosion behavior of Ti-12.5Mo, Ti-13Nb-13Zr, and Ti-29Nb-13Ta-4.6Zr, beta ...
The purpose of this paper is to present a novel approach to study sliding friction by the use of 3D multiscale coupling techniques. We highlight the difficulties of using multiscale schemes that couple molecular dynamics (MD) with finite elements to perfor ...
Electrochemical and friction measurements during unidirectional sliding tests are used to monitor and to evaluate the tribocorrosion behavior of a passivating material. Tribocorrosion is the interplay between chemical, electrochemical, and mechanical proce ...
Correlations between adhesion hysteresis and local friction are theoretically and experimentally investigated. The model is based on the classical theory of adhesional friction, contact mechanics, capillary hysteresis, and nanoscale roughness. Adhesion hys ...
We present a multiscale coupling method to address contact problems. The components of the model are a molecular dynamics engine, a finite element program and a coupling scheme. We validate the approach, first on Hertzian contact and then with a rough surf ...
In this thesis, an original law of adhesion is developed and then coupled to the classical law of unilateral contact with threshold friction, in order to study the phenomenon of fibre/matrix debonding in composite materials. This tribological law is develo ...
The increasing interests in micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) has raised the requirement for photoresist materials with improved friction and wear properties for mechanically loaded 3D shaped microstructures. In this work, SU8 photoresist layers rein ...
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 ...
Four gravel unconstrained flow experiments were modelled with the DAN-3D and RASH-3D codes. Both the codes, based on continuum mechanics, were developed for the propagation of rapid landslides, like rock avalanches. The codes were at first run to back-calc ...
