Material modeling using modern numerical methods accelerates the design process and
reduces the costs of developing new products. However, for multiscale modeling of …

In this paper, we propose a new and efficient virtual element scheme for phase field
modeling of the dynamic fracture using an explicit time integration scheme. The explicit time …

We investigate variational phase-field formulations of anisotropic brittle fracture to model
zigzag crack patterns in cubic materials. Our objective is twofold:(i) to analytically derive and …

The thermal-induced failure mechanism of the bearing outer-ring guiding-surface is
investigated within this work when subjected to cyclic impact and sliding actions. The paper …

This work provides a framework for predicting fracture of catalyst coated membrane (CCM)
due to coupled electro-chemo-mechanical degradation processes in proton exchange …

In this review, state‐of‐the‐art studies on the uncertainty quantification (UQ) of
microstructures in aerospace materials is examined, addressing both forward and inverse …

This work presents a rigorous mathematical formulation for topology optimization of a macro
structure undergoing ductile failure. The prediction of ductile solid materials which exhibit …

Accurately predicting the fatigue failure of lithium-ion battery electrode particles during
charge–discharge cycles is essential for enhancing their structural reliability and lifespan …

Due to current scouring, submarine cables are prone to be exposed, suspended, and even
vortex-induced vibration, which is not conducive to the safe operation of the power grid. In …

Asphalt concrete impervious facings, widely adopted as the impervious structures for rockfill
dams and upper reservoirs in pumped storage power stations, typically have a multilayer …
