Three Dimensional Modeling of Slip Surfaces in Geomaterials

چکیده

A three-dimensional finite element implementation of a simple nonassociative Drucker-Prager plasticity model with strong discontinuity mode of localized deformation is formulated for small deformations. A strong discontinuity mode of localized deformation represents slip along a surface of zero measure, whereas a weak discontinuity mode of localized deformation represents shear within a band of finite thickness. A numerical algorithm that detects onset of localization for three-dimensional stress states and the possible normals to slip planes within a three-dimensional finite element is demonstrated. An enhanced strain hexahedral finite element accounting for the various slip-plane cutting conditions is described. This model and finite element lead to mesh-independent solutions with regard to mesh refinement and mesh alignment. A simple three dimensional numerical example demonstrates the numerical algorithm for determining onset of localization.

اکستروژن سه بعدی به روش میدان خطوط لغزش

Many metal forming problems have been solved using the slip line field method but all of them have either been two-dimensional (plane strain or plain stress) or axisymmetric problems. In this paper a procedure has been proposed by which the slip line field solution to three dimensional problems of metal forming becomes possible. For this purpose the extrusion of shaped sections has been taken a...

3D stochastic rock fracture modeling related to strike-slip faults

Fault zones and fault-related fracture systems control the mechanical behaviors and fluid-flow properties of the Earth’s crust. Furthermore, nowadays, modeling is being increasingly used in order to understand the behavior of rock masses, and to determine their characteristics. In this work, fault zones and fracture patterns are reviewed, and also comprehensive studies are carried out on the fr...

In the first part of the present study, a two dimensional half-corrugated channel flow is simulated at Reynolds number of 104, in no-slip condition (hydrophilic surfaces( using various low Reynolds turbulence models as well as standard k-ε model; and an appropriate turbulence model (k-ω 1998 model( is proposed. Then, in order to evaluate the proposed solution method...

Application of X-Ray CT Scanning to Characterize Geomaterials Used in Transportation Construction

Conventional visual evaluation techniques (i.e., microscopy) of geomaterials are limited to the inspection of two dimensional surfaces, leaving internal three-dimensional characteristics ambiguous or resulting in costly slice-by-slice assembly to generate three-dimensional representations. Improved X-ray–computed tomography (X-ray CT) technology now allows a sample to be analyzed nondestructive...
