Configurational Energy as a Microstructural Descriptor of Failure Precursors in 2D Frictional Granular Materials

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Localized deformation in dense granular materials, often culminating in the formation of shear bands, is a key failure mechanism in geotechnical and material systems. However, predicting the onset of such localization remains a fundamental challenge due to the system's inherent inelasticity and microstructural complexity.

Large Deformation Pile‐soil Interaction Under Lateral Vehicle Impact Using Hybrid SPH+FEM and EFG+FEM Models

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study presents large deformation computational methods to simulate lateral vehicular impacts on steel piles in granular soil. Soil‐mounted longitudinal barrier systems rely on energy dissipation in both the piles and the surrounding soil to safely redirect errant vehicles, so dynamic pile‐soil interaction is important for design ...

Effect of Designed 3D Reinforcement in Mitigating Machining Damage on CFRP Plates

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Effect of Edge Tufting on Surface Quality, Damage, and Mechanical Performance in CFRP Machining: A Comparative Topographical and Structural Analysis. ABSTRACT Composite materials made of carbon fiber‐reinforced epoxy (CFRP) are widely used in aerospace fields due to their high strength‐to‐weight ratio. However, due to low out‐of‐plane resistance, these

Impact and Post‐Impact Properties of Carbon Fiber Fabric Laminates Reinforced With Carbon Nanofibres

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Carbon nanofiber addition on the low‐velocity impact response of carbon fiber laminates. ABSTRACT The use of carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRPs) is limited by their susceptibility to low‐velocity impact (LVI) damage. This study investigates the effect of incorporating 0.75 wt.% carbon nanofibres (CNFs) into the epoxy matrix of carbon fiber fabric ...
