Painting Taylor vortices with cellulose nanocrystals: Suspension flow supercritical spectral dynamics

Marianne Liebi

We study the flow stability and spatiotemporal spectral dynamics of cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) suspensions in a custom Taylor-Couette flow cell using the intrinsic shear induced birefringence and liquid crystalline properties of CNC suspensions for flow v ...

Modeling friction and wear using an adaptive discrete-continuum coupling

Manon Eugénie Voisin--Leprince

When two objects slide against each other, wear and friction occur at their interface. The accumulation of wear forms what is commonly referred to as a ``third-body''. Understanding third-body evolution has significant applications in industry, where contr ...

Analysis-aware defeaturing of complex geometries with Neumann features

Pablo Antolin Sanchez, Ondine Gabrielle Chanon

Local modifications of a computational domain are often performed in order to simplify the meshing process and to reduce computational costs and memory requirements. However, removing geometrical features of a domain often introduces a non-negligible error ...

FIB-Fabrication of Resonating Cantilevers to Explore Symmetry-Breaking in Quantum Materials

Amelia Emily-Kay Estry

Scientific progress and technological advancements on novel materials are often deterred by limitations on size and quality of samples. Materials with electronic phenomena attractive for applications, and presenting many open scientific questions, are ofte ...

Planar Equilibria of an Elastic Rod Wrapped Around a Circular Capstan

Harmeet Singh

We present a study on planar equilibria of a terminally loaded elastic rod wrapped around a rigid circular capstan. Both frictionless and frictional contact between the rod and the capstan are considered. We identify three cases of frictionless contact - n ...

Finite element method–discrete element method bridging coupling for the modeling of gouge

Jean-François Molinari, Guillaume Anciaux, Antonio Joaquin Garcia Suarez, Manon Eugénie Voisin--Leprince

We discuss the multiscale modeling of a granular material trapped between continuum elastic domains. The amorphous granular region, usually termed “gouge,” is under high confinement pressure, to represent the loading of faults at depth. We model the granul ...

Conservation of Forces and Total Work at the Interface Using the Internodes Method

Simone Deparis

The Internodes method is a general purpose method to deal with non-conforming discretizations of partial differential equations on 2D and 3D regions partitioned into disjoint subdomains. In this paper we are interested in measuring how much the Internodes ...

Theory of twin strengthening in fcc high entropy alloys

William Curtin, Recep Ekin Kubilay

Twinning in fcc High Entropy Alloys (HEAs) has been implicated as a possible mechanism for hardening that enables enhanced ductility. Here, a theory for the twinning stress is developed analogous to recent theories for yield stress. Specifically, the stres ...

Strain and filler ratio transitions from chains network to filler network damage in EPDM during single and cyclic loadings

Nicolas Candau, Oguzhan Oguz

Chains and filler network damage were investigated during single and multiple cycles on a series of vulcanized EPDM containing various filler contents. In both series of experiments, a strain and a filler ratio transitions for damage mechanisms were identi ...

Identification of material parameters of a tubular dielectric elastomer actuator for a cardiac assist device

Yves Perriard, Yoan René Cyrille Civet, Thomas Guillaume Martinez, Jonathan André Jean-Marie Chavanne

The recent development of Dielectric Elastomer Actuators (DEA) requires a new approach to the description of hyperelastic material when the architectures are more complex than a film of material. In this paper, we propose a new technique of identification ...

Adaptive isogeometric analysis on two-dimensional trimmed domains based on a hierarchical approach

Annalisa Buffa, Pablo Antolin Sanchez, Rafael Vazquez Hernandez, Luca Coradello

The focus of this work is on the development of an error-driven isogeometric framework, capable of automatically performing an adaptive simulation in the context of second- and fourth-order, elliptic partial differential equations defined on two-dimensiona ...

Heat source and voiding signatures of Mullins damage in filled EPDM

Nicolas Candau, Oguzhan Oguz

The thermomechanical coupling of Mullins damage in filled EPDM has been investigated by analysing the self-heating via Infrared thermography (IR) and the voiding fraction by Digital Image Correlation (DIC). The volumetric strain measured during the rubber ...

An analytical inverse analysis to determine equi-biaxial tensile properties of strain-hardening UHPFRC from ring-on-ring test

Eugen Brühwiler, Emmanuel Denarié, Xiujiang Shen

The equi-biaxial tensile properties of strain-hardening UHPFRC are determined and investigated based on an original analytical inverse analysis of results from ring-on-ring tests. First, the analytical inverse analysis method is developed based on the elas ...

Meso-scale modelling of ASR in concrete: effect of viscoelasticity

Jean-François Molinari, Emil Gallyamov, Mauro Corrado, Roozbeh Rezakhani

A meso-scale numerical model for simulating damage in concrete due to ASR is presented. It accounts for the internal structure of concrete including aggregates and mortar. ASR sites are explicitly represented. This model is extended to account for viscoela ...

Solute-strengthening in elastically anisotropic fcc alloys

William Curtin, Céline Varvenne, Shankha Nag

Dislocation motion through a random alloy is impeded by its interactions with the compositional fluctuations intrinsic to the alloy, leading to strengthening. A recent theory predicts the strengthening as a function of the solute-dislocation interaction en ...

Propagation of fluid driven fractures in transversely isotropic material

Fatima-Ezzahra Moukhtari

The propagation of fluid driven fractures is used in a number of industrial applications (well stimulation of unconventional reservoirs, development of deep geothermal systems) but also occurs naturally (magmatic dyke intrusion). While the mechanics of hyd ...

Isogeometric Analysis on V-reps: First results

Annalisa Buffa, Pablo Antolin Sanchez

Inspired by the introduction of Volumetric Modeling via volumetric representations (V-reps) by Massarwi and Elber in 2016, in this paper we present a novel approach for the construction of isogeometric numerical methods for elliptic PDEs on trimmed geometr ...
