Download or read book Adaptive Analysis of Damage and Fracture in Rock with Multiphysical Fields Coupling written by Yongliang Wang and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-08-31 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book mainly focuses on the adaptive analysis of damage and fracture in rock, taking into account multiphysical fields coupling (thermal, hydro, mechanical, and chemical fields). This type of coupling is a crucial aspect in practical engineering for e.g. coal mining, oil and gas exploration, and civil engineering. However, understanding the influencing mechanisms and preventing the disasters resulting from damage and fracture evolution in rocks require high-precision and reliable solutions. This book proposes adaptive numerical algorithms and simulation analysis methods that offer significant advantages in terms of accuracy and reliability. It helps readers understand these innovative methods quickly and easily. The content consists of: (1) a finite element algorithm for modeling the continuum damage evolution in rocks, (2) adaptive finite element analysis for continuum damage evolution and determining the wellbore stability of transversely isotropic rock, (3) an adaptive finite element algorithm for damage detection in non-uniform Euler–Bernoulli beams with multiple cracks, using natural frequencies, (4) adaptive finite element–discrete element analysis for determining multistage hydrofracturing in naturally fractured reservoirs, (5) adaptive finite element–discrete element analysis for multistage supercritical CO2 fracturing and microseismic modeling, and (6) an adaptive finite element–discrete element–finite volume algorithm for 3D multiscale propagation of hydraulic fracture networks, taking into account hydro-mechanical coupling. Given its scope, the book offers a valuable reference guide for researchers, postgraduates and undergraduates majoring in engineering mechanics, mining engineering, geotechnical engineering, and geological engineering.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Several recent works have demonstrated that phase-field methods for modeling fracture are capable of yielding complex crack evolution patterns in materials. This includes the nucleation, turning, branching, and merging of cracks subject to a variety of quasi-static and dynamic loadings. What follows will demonstrate how phase-field methods for fracture can be applied to problems involving materials subject to electromechanical coupling and the problem of hydraulic fracture. Brittle fracture is a major concern in piezoelectric ceramics. Fracture propagation in these materials is heavily influenced by the mechanical and electrical fields within the material as well as the boundary conditions on the crack surfaces. These conditions can lead to complex multi-modal crack growth. We develop a continuum thermodynamics framework for a damaging medium with electromechanical coupling subject to four different crack-face boundary conditions. A theory is presented to reproduce impermeable, permeable, conducting, and energetically consistent crack-face boundary conditions, the latter of which requires a finite deformation formulation. A primary application of hydraulic fracturing involves the injection of fluid into a perforated wellbore with the intention of fracturing the surrounding reservoir and stimulating its overall production. This process involves the coupling of fluid flow with material failure, which must account for the interactions of several cracks, both natural and man-made. Many of the questions on the effects these interactions have on the performance of the frac treatments are unanswered. We develop a continuum thermodynamics framework for fluid flow through a damaging porous medium in order to represent some of the processes and interactions that occur during hydraulic fracturing. The model will be capable of simulating both Stokes flow through cracks and Darcy flow through the porous medium. The flow is coupled to the deformation of the bulk solid medium and the evolution of cracks within the material. We utilize a finite deformation framework in order to capture the opening of the fractures, which can have substantial effects on fluid pressure response. For both models, a fully coupled non-linear finite element formulation is constructed. Several benchmark solutions are investigated to validate the expected behavior and accuracy of the method. In addition, a number of interesting problems are investigated in order to demonstrate the ability of the method to respond to various complexities like material anisotropy and the interaction of multiple cracks.

This book was released on 1998-09-17 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Functionals involving both volume and surface energies have a number of applications ranging from Computer Vision to Fracture Mechanics. In order to tackle numerical and dynamical problems linked to such functionals many approximations by functionals defined on smooth functions have been proposed (using high-order singular perturbations, finite-difference or non-local energies, etc.) The purpose of this book is to present a global approach to these approximations using the theory of gamma-convergence and of special functions of bounded variation. The book is directed to PhD students and researchers in calculus of variations, interested in approximation problems with possible applications.

Download or read book The Combined Finite Discrete Element Method written by Antonio A. Munjiza and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2004-04-21 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The combined finite discrete element method is a relatively new computational tool aimed at problems involving static and / or dynamic behaviour of systems involving a large number of solid deformable bodies. Such problems include fragmentation using explosives (e.g rock blasting), impacts, demolition (collapsing buildings), blast loads, digging and loading processes, and powder technology. The combined finite-discrete element method - a natural extension of both discrete and finite element methods - allows researchers to model problems involving the deformability of either one solid body, a large number of bodies, or a solid body which fragments (e.g. in rock blasting applications a more or less intact rock mass is transformed into a pile of solid rock fragments of different sizes, which interact with each other). The topic is gaining in importance, and is at the forefront of some of the current efforts in computational modeling of the failure of solids. * Accompanying source codes plus input and output files available on the Internet * Important applications such as mining engineering, rock blasting and petroleum engineering * Includes practical examples of applications areas Essential reading for postgraduates, researchers and software engineers working in mechanical engineering.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: COMPUTATIONAL GEOMECHANICS The new edition of the first book to cover the computational dynamic aspects of geomechanics, now including more practical applications and up-to-date coverage of current research in the field Advances in computational geomechanics have dramatically improved understanding of the behavior of soils and the ability of engineers to design increasingly sophisticated constructions in the ground. When Professor Olek Zienkiewicz began the application of numerical approaches to solid dynamics at Swansea University, it became evident that realistic prediction of the behavior of soil masses could only be achieved if the total stress approaches were abandoned. Computational Geomechanics introduces the theory and application of Zienkiewicz’s computational approaches that remain the basis for work in the area of saturated and unsaturated soil to this day. Written by past students and colleagues of Professor Zienkiewicz, this extended Second Edition provides formulations for a broader range of problems, including failure load under static loading, saturated and unsaturated consolidation, hydraulic fracturing, and liquefaction of soil under earthquake loading. The internationally-recognized team of authors incorporates current computer technologies and new developments in the field, particularly in the area of partial saturation, as they guide readers on how to properly apply the formulation in their work. This one-of-a-kind volume: Explains the Biot-Zienkiewicz formulation for saturated and unsaturated soil Covers multiple applications to static and dynamic problems for saturated and unsaturated soil in areas such as earthquake engineering and fracturing of soils and rocks Features a completely new chapter on fast catastrophic landslides using depth integrated equations and smoothed particle hydrodynamics with applications Presents the theory of porous media in the saturated and unsaturated states to establish the foundation of the problem of soil mechanics Provides a quantitative description of soil behavior including simple plasticity models, generalized plasticity, and critical state soil mechanics Includes numerous questions, problems, hands-on experiments, applications to other situations, and example code for GeHoMadrid Computational Geomechanics: Theory and Applications, Second Edition is an ideal textbook for specialist and general geotechnical postgraduate courses, and a must-have reference for researchers in geomechanics and geotechnical engineering, for software developers and users of geotechnical finite element software, and for geotechnical analysts and engineers making use of the numerical results obtained from the Biot-Zienkiewicz formulation.
