A numerical investigation of surface crevasse propagation in glaciers using nonlocal continuum damage mechanics
[1] We use a nonlocal viscoelastic damage model to investigate the conditions that enable water-free surface crevasse propagation in grounded marine-terminating glaciers. Our simulations, on idealized rectangular ice slabs in contact with the ocean, show that crevasses propagate faster in thicker ice slabs. We find that: (1) the fraction of ice slab thickness penetrated by surface crevasses dec...
متن کاملProgressive Damage Analysis of Laminated Composites using Continuum Damage Mechanics
In this paper, progressive damage and global failure of composite laminates under quasi-static, monotonic loading are investigated using 3D continuum damage mechanics. For this purpose, a finite element program has been developed using an eight-node 2D layered element including layer-wise plate theory. Damage analysis of a single orthotropic layer under various uniform in-plane and transverse l...
متن کاملNonlocal Models in Continuum Mechanics
The recent appearance of nonlocal methods is examined in the light of traditional continuum mechanics. A comparison of nonlocal approaches in the fields of solid and fluid mechanics reveals that no consistent definition of a nonlocal theory has been used. We suggest a definition based on the violation of the principle of local action in continuum mechanics. From the consideration of the implica...
متن کاملSpringback Modeling in L-bending Process Using Continuum Damage Mechanics Concept
Springback is one of the most common and important issues in metal forming area. Due to the fact that springback depends on a variety of parameters, it is hard to predict. Hence, in this paper, the effect of continuum damage mechanics (CDM) on springback was investigated based on the Lemaitre isotropic unified damage law. Swift’s hardening law was employed to describe isotropic hardening behavi...
متن کاملThermal vibration analysis of double-layer graphene embedded in elastic medium based on nonlocal continuum mechanics
This paper presents the thermal vibration analysis of double-layer graphene sheet embedded in polymer elastic medium, using the plate theory and nonlocal continuum mechanics for small scale effects. The graphene is modeled based on continuum plate theory and the axial stress caused by the thermal effects is also considered. Nonlocal governing equations of motion for this double-layer graphene s...
