This paper addresses some lattice model techniques used in numerical simulations of fracture in concrete and other random materials. The influence of lattice element type and …
A model is presented to analyze material microstructures subjected to quasi-static and dynamic loading. A representative volume element (RVE) composed of a set of grains is …

Due to continuing miniaturization, characteristic dimensions of electronic components are now becoming of the same order of magnitude as the characteristic microstructural scales of …
In this work, we have developed nonlinear peridynamics models of drained and saturated geomaterials, and applied them to simulations of dynamic fragmentation and ejecta …
A generalized 2D non-local lattice spring model, the Volume-Compensated Particle Model (VCPM), is proposed for the study of fracture phenomena of homogeneous isotropic solids in …

In this paper, a cohesive grain boundary integral formulation is proposed, for simulating intergranular microfracture evolution in polycrystalline brittle materials. Artificially generated …
This paper presents an improved failure model for simulating brittle fracture using the mesh- less Lattice Particle Method (LPM). By modelling the initial crack line using the Remove …
