Modeling anisotropic damage in elasto-plastic materials with structural defects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The paper deals with models for elasto-plastic materials with continuously distributed micro defects (micro cracks, micro voids, extra-matte), compatible with the principle of imbalance of the free energy.

Quantum versus Classical Dynamics in a driven barrier: the role of kinematic effects

open access: yes, 2012
We study the dynamics of the classical and quantum mechanical scattering of a wave packet from an oscillating barrier. Our main focus is on the dependence of the transmission coefficient on the initial energy of the wave packet for a wide range of ...

An optimization technique based on mechanical specific energy concept to improve drilling efficiency: a case study

open access: yesЗаписки Горного института
For years attempts have been made in the drilling industry to increase the drilling efficiency and decrease the associated costs. The drilling efficiency can be evaluated by comparing applied energy, i.e., mechanical specific energy, with rock strength ...

Mechanical limits of viral capsids

open access: yes, 2007
We study the elastic properties and mechanical stability of viral capsids under external force-loading with computer simulations. Our approach allows the implementation of specific geometries corresponding to specific phages such as $\phi$29 and CCMV. We

Mechanical specific energy versus depth of cut in rock cutting and drilling

open access: yesInternational Journal of Rock Mechanics and Mining Sciences, 2017
Abstract The relationship between Mechanical Specific Energy (MSE) and the Rate of Penetration (ROP), or equivalently the depth of cut per revolution, provides an important measure for strategizing a drilling operation. This study explores how MSE evolves with depth of cut, and presents a concerted effort that encompasses analytical, computational ...

Numerical Simulation on Rock-breaking and Temperature Characteristics of Sawtooth PDC Cutter

open access: yesShiyou jixie
Most of the researches on bionic teeth focus on the wave tooth shape, and there are few reports on the rock-breaking properties of sawtooth cutters.Based on plasto elasticity and Drucker-Prager rock failure criteria, a finite element model of interaction
