A molecular dynamics/extended finite element method for dynamic crack propagation

open access: yesVietnam Journal of Mechanics, 2008
A multiscale method is presented which couples a molecular dynamics approach for describing fracture at the crack tip with an extended finite element method for discretizing the remainder of the domain.

Generalized Multiscale Finite Element Methods. Nonlinear Elliptic Equations [PDF]

open access: yesCommunications in Computational Physics, 2014
AbstractIn this paper we use the Generalized Multiscale Finite Element Method (GMsFEM) framework, introduced in [26], in order to solve nonlinear elliptic equations with high-contrast coefficients. The proposed solution method involves linearizing the equation so that coarse-grid quantities of previous solution iterates can be regarded as auxiliary ...

Development of an optimal adaptive finite element stabiliser for the simulation of complex flows

open access: yesScientific African
An optimal adaptive multiscale finite element method(AMsFEM) for numerical solutions of flow problems modelled by the Oldroyd B model is developed. Complex flows experience instabilities due to a phenomena known as the high Weissenberg number problem ...

Application of M3GM in a Petroleum Reservoir Simulation [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Petroleum Science and Technology, 2017
Reservoir formations exhibit a wide range of heterogeneity from micro to macro scales. A simulation that involves all of these data is highly time consuming or almost impossible; hence, a new method is needed to meet the computational cost. Moreover, the

A multi-scale coupling finite element method based on the microscopic of soil particle motions

open access: yesRock and Soil Mechanics, 2021
Soil is a multi-phase and multi-scale geomaterial that exhibits dramatically inhomogeneous and discontinuous physical nature. Conventional finite element method, which is conceptualized at a single macroscale and ignores the control mechanism of soil at ...

Multiscale simulation of fullerene reinforced composite structures: From molecular dynamics to finite element continuum mechanics

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
The aim of the present study is to propose a multiscale computational technique for the prediction of the elastic mechanical properties of nanoreinforced composites. The proposed method utilizes a molecular dynamics (MD) based numerical scheme to capture

Numerical homogenization of multi-scale heterogeneous media

open access: yesГеофизический журнал, 2012
A problem of electrical potential distribution in media, containing micro-inclusions with highly contrasting physical properties and different geometric shapes, was considered. Multiscale finite element method has been chosen as a solver.
