Abstract

A displacement field a pressure field and a velocity field describe the behavior of hybrid materials that is not covered by a single solid or liquid state approach. A primary analysis that is represented by a functional and its associated principle is based on a two states analysis [...]

Abstract

We propose a numerical formulation for the simulation of frictional contact with interfacial adhesion between soft bodies. In this work, the adhesive interface behaviour derives from a free surface energy and a pseudo-potential of the surface dissipation, which describe both the de-bonding [...]

Abstract

This paper presents an algorithm and a method to solve mechanical contact problems between two bodies or more, for linear elastic and finite deformation problems. The contact problem is considered as an optimization one, more specifically as a minimization problem. The interior point [...]

Abstract

In planetary exploration, testing under the actual mission conditions is inherently not possible. Hence, simulation campaigns complement ground test campaigns. This specially applies to surface missions that include the complex behaviour of soils under non-terrestrial gravitation. [...]

Abstract

We present an application on springback of an anisotropic elastoplastic finite strain model. The computational procedure allows the sole use of internal elastic variables as it is fully hyperelastic. Based on the Lee-type multiplicative decomposition, which permits an additive solution [...]

Abstract

This paper shows a numerical replication of a laboratory-scale free fall cone penetrometer test of marine clay. The numerical simulation involves large deformations and considers the destructuration of clay, strain rate effects, and non-linear material behaviour. The numerical [...]
