Prior to any practical application, brittle material components may need to be machined to a
high degree of precision in order to avoid functional breakdown as well as to maintain …

The brittle–ductile transition (BDT) widely exists in the manufacturing with extremely small
deformation scale, thermally assisted machining, and high-speed machining. This paper …

A critical element for the design, characterization, and certification of materials and products
produced by additive manufacturing processes is the ability to accurately and efficiently …

In order to establish modeling and simulation (M&S) in support of Additive Manufacturing
Processes (AMP) control for tailoring functional component performance by design, a …

The mechanical behavior of materials is usually simulated by a continuous mechanics
approach. However, non-continuous phenomena such as multi-fracturing cannot be …

Friction significantly influences chip formation, thereby highlighting its modeling critical in
numerical cutting simulations. Notably, issues like the underestimation of feed force in …

Concrete with a micro-encapsulated healing agent is appealing due to its self-healing
capacity. The discrete element method (DEM) is emerging as an increasingly used …

Discrete element method (DEM) was used to simulate the dynamic process of microbond
test of fiber reinforced composites, in which the fiber and matrix were modeled as elastic and …

Modeling of manufacturing processes and especially machining has proven to be
particularly demanding, due to the complex phenomena occurring, leading to the necessity …

In this article, the effects of porosity and its geometry on tensile features of concrete were
investigated, using the Brazilian test and three dimensions PFC model. In the first step, the …
