Phase field fracture models have demonstrated great capacities in simulating crack
nucleation, propagation, branching, and joining in brittle and ductile materials subjected to …

Austenitic stainless steels (ASS) are extensively employed in various sectors such as
nuclear, power, petrochemical, oil and gas because of their excellent structural strength and …

Electrode particle cracking is one of the main phenomena driving battery capacity
degradation. Recent phase field fracture studies have investigated particle cracking …

We present a generalised phase field-based formulation for predicting fatigue crack growth
in metals. The theoretical framework aims at covering a wide range of material behaviour …

We present a phase field-based electro-chemo-mechanical formulation for modelling
mechanics-enhanced corrosion and hydrogen-assisted cracking in elastic–plastic solids. A …

The phase field paradigm, in combination with a suitable variational structure, has opened a
path for using Griffith's energy balance to predict the fracture of solids. These so-called …

The phase field fracture method is attracting significant interest. Phase field approaches
have enabled predicting-on arbitrary geometries and dimensions-complex fracture …

We present a mechanistic theory for predicting void evolution in the Li metal electrode
during the charge and discharge of all-solid-state battery cells. A phase field formulation is …

We present a generalised phase field formulation for predicting high-cycle fatigue in metals.
Different fatigue degradation functions are presented, together with new damage …

We present a simple and robust implementation of the phase field fracture method in
Abaqus. Unlike previous works, only a user material (UMAT) subroutine is used. This is …
