Criterion for Imminent Failure During Loading—Discrete Element Method Analysis

It has recently been reported that the equal load sharing fiber bundle model predicts rate of change elastic energy stored in reaches its maximum before catastrophic failure occurs, making it a possible predictor for imminent collapse. The does not contain central mechanisms often play an important role processes, such as localization. Thus, there is obvious question whether similar phenomenon observed more realistic systems. We address this using discrete element method to simulate breaking thin tissue subjected stretching load. Our simulations confirm class virtual materials which respond with well-pronounced peak force, derivative and we always observe existence prior loading force. Moreover, find amount released at related absorption rate.
