Metal additive manufacturing (AM) presents advantages such as increased complexity for a
lower part cost and part consolidation compared to traditional manufacturing. The multiscale …

Abstract The Sandia Fracture Challenges provide a forum for the mechanics community to
assess its ability to predict ductile fracture through a blind, round-robin format where …

Crack-direction-based decomposition of elastic strain energy could effectively control the
propagation of tensile and shear cracks in a phase field modelling context. The objective of …

Conspectus Additive Manufacturing (AM) technology produces three-dimensional
components in a layer-by-layer fashion and offers numerous advantages over conventional …

The" Workshop on Machine learning in heterogeneous porous materials" brought together
international scientific communities of applied mathematics, porous media, and material …

Porosity, a commonly occurring void defect in casting and additive manufacturing, is known
to affect the mechanical response of metals, making it difficult or impossible to predict …

Here, we present a systematic experimental study and accompanying theoretical analysis of
the dependence of ductile fracture on strain localization, strain hardening rates, deformation …

Paper presents numerical models based on a detailed characterization of various
uncoupled damage models in a finite element analysis (FEA) setup to assess their results …
