This paper presents a novel variational phase-field model for different fracture processes in
fully saturated porous media. As a key feature, the model employs a micromechanics-based …

In this work we propose and compare the two models for crack propagation in dynamics.
Both models are based on embedded strong discontinuities for localized cohesive type …

In different geological and engineering conditions, it is important to study the stress
interference of multiple fractures and interaction of natural fractures in “well factory” …

A novel, fully coupled hydro-mechanical model for the failure analysis of partially saturated
porous media is presented. Failure mechanisms pertain to propagating discontinuities, ie …

Microbiologically induced calcite precipitation following the ureases is a bio-geo-chemical
soil improvement technique in which the microorganism facilitates to create an environment …

This study is aimed to develop a damping model to accurately predict vibration amplitude
reduction for any size of structure. It is developed in the framework of multi-scale analysis …

Abstract A new 3D X-FEM approach is proposed to model crack coalescence phenomena in
the Smart Cut TM technology. An adaptive mesh is developed based on a 3D fractal mesh …

In this paper, we present a numerical model for fluid-structure interaction between structure
built of porous media and acoustic fluid, which provides both pore pressure inside porous …

In this paper we present geometrically exact Kirchhoff's initially curved planar beam model.
The theoretical formulation of the proposed model is based upon Reissner's geometrically …

This work aims to show a model to estimate the minimum cost (Thickness and area of steel
in X and Y directions) for design a circular isolated footing with eccentric column that …
