Lattice dynamical finite-element method

چکیده
A lattice dynamical finite-element method (LDFEM) is proposed for multiscale analysis of stressed complex crystals. Interatomic potential is embedded into the constitutive relation within the hyperelasticity framework, and two energy-based lattice instability criteria, the K criterion and the soft phonon criterion, are incorporated into LDFEM for capturing stress-driven instabilities in a perfect crystal. The simulations of uniaxial loadings and a two-dimensional nanoindentation of B2-NiAl are performed using both LDFEM and molecular dynamics (MD). The good agreement of the simulated mechanical responses between the two methods validates the proposed method. Combination of the two criteria can provide a powerful tool for predicting lattice instabilities in complex crystals under load at zero or low temperatures. 2009 Acta Materialia Inc.

متن کاملParticle Tracking Studies Using Dynamical Map Created from Finite Element Solution of the EMMA Cell
The possibility of transverse displacement of the magnets in the EMMA non-scaling FFAG [1] and the unconventional size of the accelerator motivate a careful study of particle behavior within the EMMA ring. The magnetic field map of the doublet cell is computed using a Finite Element Method solver; particle motion through the field can then be found by numerical integration. However, by obtainin...

Buckling strength of composite latticed cylindrical shells is one of the important parameters for studying the failure of these structures. In this paper, new governing differential equations are derived for latticed cylindrical shells and their critical buckling axial loads. The nested structure under compressive axial buckling load was analyzed. Finite Element Method (FEM) was applied to mode...
متن کاملFinite-element Time Evolution Operator for the Anharmonic Oscillator
The finite-element approach to lattice field theory is both highly accurate (relative errors ∼ 1/N2, where N is the number of lattice points) and exactly unitary (in the sense that canonical commutation relations are exactly preserved at the lattice sites). In this talk I construct matrix elements for dynamical variables and for the time evolution operator for the anharmonic oscillator, for whi...
