Elastic-plastic analysis by 4 nodes isoparametric finite element. Theory Mises

Submitted by Arifdjanov Abdulla on

 The relationship between the strains and stresses will be considered based on the premise that for every increment of load deformation occurs, consisting of two parts - the elastic and plastic

 The program of calculation by finite element method. Basis of its program described in the work [Siratori, T. Miesi, and Kh. Matsushita,Numerical Mechanics of Fracture], which has implemented the theory of plastic flow and deformation theory. The plastic problem is solved by the incremental method of loading, with each increment of load shifted one element to the plastic zone.

Nonequilibrium interface behavior in Cahn-Hilliard models for Li-ion batteries

Submitted by Srivatsan Hulikal on

Experiments, numerical simulations, and analytical calculations are used to calibrate a diffuse-interface Cahn-Hilliard model of Li-Sn thin film electrodes that experience a transformation from Sn to Li2Sn5. It is shown that a concentration-gradient dependent mobility can be used in the Cahn-Hilliard equation to give the interface a finite mobility and capture its nonequilibrium behavior.
