Evaluating the combined environmental effects, such as external loads, water saturation, and thermal variations, on the mechanical performance of porous media is challenge …
In the present study, a numerical approach is proposed for identification of straight cracks in two-dimensional linear viscoelastic media. The identification procedure is based on the …
We investigate the relation between topological and vibrational properties of networked materials by analyzing, both numerically and analytically, the properties of a random spring …
In this paper, we investigated elastic instabilities in soft particulate composites under finite strains. Through our numerical analysis, we find distinct instability modes developing in the …
