It is well that a finite element method is very popular simulation method to predict the physical behavior of systems and structures. In the last years an increase of interest in a new type of numerical methods known as meshless methods was observed. The

A material containing spherical microvoids with a Hookean matrix response was shown to take the appearance usually applied in continuum damage mechanics. However, the commonly used variable damage D was replaced with the void volume fraction f , which has a clear physical meaning, and the elastic strain tensor \Bold {ε}^e with the damage-elastic strain

Modelling of Dynamic Behaviour of Orthotropic Metals Including Damage and Failure [PDF]
A physically based material model for metals, with elastic plastic and damage/failure orthotropy is proposed in this paper. The model is defined within the frameworks of irreversible thermodynamics and configurational continuum mechanics and integrated ...

A Generalized Hypothesis of Elastic Energy Equivalence in Continuum Damage Mechanics
A new generalized hypothesis of elastic energy equivalence is proposed. The proposed generalized hypothesis is inclusive of all the existing different hypotheses of equivalence in continuum damage mechanics and all are obtained as special cases ...

Micro-macro mechanics of damage and healing in rocks
This paper presents the state of the art of the theory of damage and healing mechanics, with a particular emphasis on the strategies available to relate the micro-scale of crystals, cracks and pores to the scale of a Representative Elementary Volume ...

We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

A continuous/discontinuous Galerkin formulation for a strain gradient-dependent damage model [PDF]
The numerical solution of strain gradient-dependent continuum problems has been hindered by continuity demands on the basis functions. The presence of terms in constitutive models that involve gradients of the strain field means that the $C^0$ continuity

Fracture and permeability of concrete and rocks
Continuum Damage Mechanics provides a framework for the description of the mechanical response of concrete and rocks which encompasses distributed micro-cracking, macro-crack initiation, and then its propagation. In order to achieve a consistent setting,

A directed continuum damage mechanics method for modelling composite matrix cracks
Matrix cracking in continuous fibre reinforced composites follows the fibre orientations, but continuum damage mechanics models are not able to properly capture this.
