Blast and ballistic impacts are high-strain rate events that can cause catastrophic damage to
structures and endanger human lives. Shielding materials play a critical role in mitigating the …

A numerical investigation was carried out to analyze in details the perforation process of
target AA5754-O Aluminum plate when subjected to normal impact at low (up to 25 ms− 1) …

This work is concerned with the theoretical development, algorithmic implementation and
numerical investigation of a novel thermodynamically consistent 'two-surface'gradient …

We proposed a multi-scale structure modeling scheme to analyze the damage behaviors of
three-dimensional orthogonal woven composite materials subject to quasi-static and high …

The compression deformation behavior of an as-casting 6063 aluminum alloy has been
studied under quasi-static and impact loading conditions at strain rate ranges from 1× 10− 3 …

In this work, non-associative finite strain anisotropic elastoplastic model fully coupled with
anisotropic ductile damage is considered. First, the kinematics of large deformation based …

The thermo-mechanical behaviour in tension of three as-cast and homogenized Al-Mg-Si
alloys, distinguished by their Mg and Si content, was investigated at a wide range of strains …

Dynamic and quasi-static tension experiments are conducted on Ti-6Al-4V alloys, with in
situ, synchrotron-based, high-speed, x-ray phase contrast imaging implemented to …

Local microstructural weak links for spall damage were investigated using three-
dimensional (3-D) characterization in multicrystalline copper samples (grain size≈ 450 µ m) …

The aim of the work presented in this paper was development of a thermodynamically
consistent constitutive model for orthotopic metals and determination of its parameters …
