I am a beginner in doing research :-) and my topic is about "Micro Indentation Analysis using Continuum Dislocation Theory". I am applying high-order finite element method for this nonlinear problem.

A review on multiscale methods for material modeling

Submitted by phunguyen on Wed, 10/31/2012 - 05:54

Dear all,

Please find enclosed our paper which is published on Journal of Multiscale Modelling
Vol. 3, No. 4 (2011) 1–42 which gives an overview of state of the art multiscale techniques for material modeling.

The paper discusses the following topics: homogenization, Representative volume element, computational homogenization (Fe2 methods) for both both bulk materials and strong discontinuities.

I hope the paper is useful for beginners to the field.

All the bests,

hello

i simulted impact on ceramic plate but after the impact the element of
ceramic didnot erod. i use element deletation=yes, any body know what
should i do?

thanks

How much rock compaction is elastic ?

Submitted by tlaverne on Tue, 10/30/2012 - 13:32

research

Dear experts,

I was just wondering to what extent rock compaction was an elastic process. My guess is that there is a limit strain above which decompaction can't occur (for example if grain crush and cement in denser type of material). But in reality how much is that compaction elastic for real rocks ?
