Abstract

Sloshing of fluids with a free surface contained in liquid storage tanks is numerically simulated by an arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian formulation. The fluid is considered viscous and Newtonian, while the flow is assumed laminar and incompressible. A partitioned and distributed computational [...]

Abstract

The phase-field modeling and its adaptive moving mesh solution for studying initiation and propagation of brittle fracture will be presented. Challenges such as non-smoothness of the energy functional, violation of fracture boundary conditions, and the need for mesh adaptation, [...]
