Journal Club Theme of September 2009: Elasticity and Failure

Submitted by Konstantin Volokh on

Let us consider interaction of two atoms/molecules/particles. The reference distance between them corresponds to zero interaction force and zero stored energy. The interaction passes three stages with the increase of the distance. At the first stage the force increases proportionally to the increasing distance: the linear stage. At the second stage the force-distance relationship deviates from the linear proportionality: the nonlinear stage. At the third stage the force drops with the increasing distance: the separation or failure stage.

The recent issue of Nature Materials includes a review paper on the deformation and failure of protein materials in physiologically extreme conditions and disease. The paper was interesting, so I am posting the abstract here. For the full-paper visit Nature Materials.

Hi everyone. I'm new to this forum and quite new with FEA.

Currently i'm trying to find compressive strength or maximum failure stress on a modeled brick. Is't possible? What parameters or properties do i need in hand in order to proceed?

Regards,
KenLo
