The purpose of this paper is to provide a numerical modeling of intense dynamic loads on engineering materials. Numerical results illustrate the evolution of the state of elastic-plastic shells (filled with fluid or elastic-plastic material), which are subjected to explosive loads.

fluid properties with constant improvement in efficiency have been noticeable as important criteria in drilling operation. the main drilling fluid properties highly depend on utilization of new polymers with high efficiency in drilling fluid composition. in this paper, the performance of a new polymer, called partially hydrolyzed polyacrylamide polymer (phpa), is studied which has recently ente...

the development of yielded or failure zone due to an engineering construction is a subject of study in different disciplines. in petroleum engineering, depletion from and injection of gas into a porous rock can cause development of a yield zone around the reservoir. studying this phenomenon requires elasto-plastic analysis of geomaterial, in this case the porous rocks. in this study, which is a...

A constitutive multi-laminate based elastic-plastic model developed to be capable of accounting induced anisotropic behavior of granular material such as sand. The fabric feature or grain orientation characteristic effects through medium are considered in a rational way under any complex stress path, including cyclic loading. The salient feature of the developed model is a non-associative on pl...

Teran, Co-chair Simulating fluids and solid materials undergoing large deformation remains an important and challenging problem in Co...

neither damage mechanics model nor elastoplastic constitutive law can solely describe the behavior of concrete satisfactorily. in fact, they both fail to represent proper unloading slopes during cyclic loading. to overcome the disadvantages of pure plastic models and pure damage approaches, the combined effects need to be considered. in this regard, various classes of plastic-damage models have...

in this present study, volume of fluid method in openfoam open source cfd package will be extended to consider phase change phenomena with modified model due to condensation and boiling processes. this model is suitable for the case in which both unsaturated phase and saturated phase are present and for beginning boiling and condensation process needn't initial interface. both phases (liqu...
