Asymptotic homogenization for phase field fracture of heterogeneous materials and application to toughening
S Liu, S Hao, Y Shen - Composite Structures, 2024 - Elsevier
We propose an asymptotic homogenization framework to simulate the fracture of
heterogeneous materials. This framework upscales the phase field model for microscale …

An assessment of anisotropic phase-field models of brittle fracture
In several classes of ductile and brittle materials consisting of different cleavage planes, an
orientation dependency of the fracture process is observed. It leads for instance to complex …

Criterion for critical junctions in elastic-plastic adhesive wear
S Brach, S Collet - Physical review letters, 2021 - APS
We investigate elastic-plastic adhesive wear via a continuum variational phase-field
approach. The model seamlessly captures the transition from perfectly brittle, over …
