Finite element method–discrete element method bridging coupling for the modeling of gouge

Jean-François Molinari, Guillaume Anciaux, Antonio Joaquin Garcia Suarez, Manon Eugénie Voisin--Leprince

We discuss the multiscale modeling of a granular material trapped between continuum elastic domains. The amorphous granular region, usually termed “gouge,” is under high confinement pressure, to represent the loading of faults at depth. We model the granul ...

FEM of stress partition during compression of WC-10 wt.% Co with realistic 3D morphology

Daniele Mari, Lucas Eric Jacques Degeneve

A Finite Element Model is developed to represent the mechanical behavior of WC-10 wt.% Co in compression tests. In this research, realistic three-dimensional model is obtained by slicing a sample by Focused Ion Beam and reconstituting it, resulting in two ...

Mesh d-refinement: a data-based computational framework to account for complex material response

Jean-François Molinari, Antonio Joaquin Garcia Suarez, Sacha Zenon Wattel

Model-free data-driven computational mechanics (DDCM) is a new paradigm for simulations in solid mechanics. The modeling step associated to the definition of a material constitutive law is circumvented through the introduction of an abstract phase space in ...

Umbrella Meshes: Elastic Mechanisms for Freeform Shape Deployment

Mark Pauly, Florin Isvoranu, Tian Chen, Yingying Ren, Uday Kusupati, Davide Pellis

We present a computational inverse design framework for a new class of volumetric deployable structures that have compact rest states and deploy into bending-active 3D target surfaces. Umbrella meshes consist of elastic beams, rigid plates, and hinge joint ...

From kirigami to hydrogels: a tutorial on designing conformally transformable surfaces

Yingying Ren, Tian Chen

Elastic surfaces that morph between multiple geometrical configurations are of significant engineering value, with applications ranging from the deployment of space-based PV arrays, the erection of temporary shelters, and the realization of flexible displa ...

Seismic events miss important kinematically governed grain scale mechanisms during shear failure of porous rock

Edward Carlo Giorgio Andò

Catastrophic failure in brittle, porous materials initiates when smaller-scale fractures localise along an emergent fault zone in a transition from stable crack growth to dynamic rupture. Due to the rapid nature of this critical transition, the precise mic ...

Experimental quantification of 3D deformations in sensitive clay during stress-probing

Edward Carlo Giorgio Andò

Unique four-dimensional (4D) deformation data are collected during drained triaxial tests on intact specimens of a natural sensitive clay. This requires the development of a miniature triaxial cell for advanced stress path testing, specifically designed fo ...
