Methods of the Theory of Complex Systems in Modelling of Fracture: a Brief Review
نویسنده
چکیده
Theoretical investigations of damage and fracture of materials which are based on the concepts of the theory of complex systems are reviewed and analyzed. The models of fracture, which have been developed with the use of the methods of following theories, are considered: theory of phase transitions and statistical physics, percolation and fractals theories, theories of dynamical systems, bifurcations and self-organization. The main achievements, perspectives and limitations of the application of these methods in modelling of fracture are analyzed. ©1996 Elsevier Science Ltd

Modelling of Crack Growth Using a New Fracture Criteria Based Peridynamics
Peridynamics (PD) is a nonlocal continuum theory based on integro-differential equations without spatial derivatives. The elongation fracture criterion is implicitly incorporated in the PD theory, and fracture is a natural outcome of the simulation. On the other hand, a new fracture criterion based on the crack opening displacement combined with peridynamic (PD-COD) is proposed. When the relati...
متن کاملA review on EEG based brain computer interface systems feature extraction methods
The brain – computer interface (BCI) provides a communicational channel between human and machine. Most of these systems are based on brain activities. Brain Computer-Interfacing is a methodology that provides a way for communication with the outside environment using the brain thoughts. The success of this methodology depends on the selection of methods to process the brain signals in each pha...

متن کاملDynamical Behavior of a Rigid Body with One Fixed Point (Gyroscope). Basic Concepts and Results. Open Problems: a Review
The study of the dynamic behavior of a rigid body with one fixed point (gyroscope) has a long history. A number of famous mathematicians and mechanical engineers have devoted enormous time and effort to clarify the role of dynamic effects on its movement (behavior) – stable, periodic, quasi-periodic or chaotic. The main objectives of this review are: 1) to outline the characteristic features of...
