Discrete element modeling of brittle crack roughness in three dimensions
*Correspondence: Bjørn Skjetne, Department of Physics, Norwegian University of Science and Technology, N-7491 Trondheim, Norway e-mail: [email protected] Crack morphology obtained in the fracture of materials with a disordered micro-structure is studied using numerical simulations. Physical properties are embedded on a regular three dimensional lattice as discrete stochastic elements which confo...
متن کاملDiscrete Element Modeling of Dynamic Compaction with Different Tamping Condition
Dynamic Compaction (DC) is a common deep compaction method that is usually used for densification of coarse-grained soils. Although traditional continuum-based models such as the Finite Element Method can be successfully applied for assessment of stress distributions or deformations induced by DC, they are typically not adequate for capturing the grain scale mechanisms of soil behavior under im...
متن کاملCrack initiation in brittle materials
In this paper we study the crack initiation in a hyper-elastic body governed by a Griffith’s type energy. We prove that, during a load process through a time dependent boundary datum of the type t → tg(x) and in absence of strong singularities (this is the case of homogeneous isotropic materials) the crack initiation is brutal, i.e., a big crack appears after a positive time ti > 0. On the cont...
متن کاملCrack surface roughness in three-dimensional random fuse networks.
Using large system sizes with extensive statistical sampling, we analyze the scaling properties of crack roughness and damage profiles in the three-dimensional random fuse model. The analysis of damage profiles indicates that damage accumulates in a diffusive manner up to the peak load, and localization sets in abruptly at the peak load, starting from a uniform damage landscape. The global crac...
متن کاملA Scalable Computational Approach for Modeling Dynamic Fracture of Brittle Solids in Three Dimensions
In this thesis a new parallel computational method is proposed for modeling threedimensional dynamic fracture of brittle solids. The method is based on a combination of the discontinuous Galerkin (DG) formulation of the continuum elastodynamic problem with Cohesive Zone Models (CZM) of fracture. In the proposed framework, discontinuous displacement jumps are allowed to occur at all element boun...
