Static and dynamic mechanical behaviors of cracked Mindlin plates in ordinary state-based peridynamic framework

M. J. Dai et al.

Summary: An ordinary state-based peridynamic (PD) model based on the Mindlin plate theory is presented to deal with fracture mechanics problems. The displacement extrapolation method is used to evaluate static and dynamic stress resultant intensity factors. However, the accuracy of the displacement field near crack surfaces is significantly affected by the PD surface effect. Therefore, the arbitrary horizon domain method is adopted to correct the surface effect. Several numerical examples show that the PD Mindlin plate model incorporated with the arbitrary horizon domain method effectively minimizes the influence of the PD surface effect and provides an effective approach to evaluate static and dynamic moment intensity factors.

Out-of-plane deformation reduction via inelastic hinges in fibrous metamaterials and simplified damage approach

Mario Spagnuolo et al.

Summary: The mechanical behavior of fibrous metamaterials is determined by interactions between fibers, which can be direct or mediated by hinges. The torsional stiffness of inelastic hinges can affect out-of-plane deformations in shear tests, potentially leading to permanent deformations after reaching a certain threshold. Damage in the continuum model is introduced to simplify the treatment of this phenomenon.

Piola transformations in second-gradient continua

Simon R. Eugster et al.

Summary: This paper investigates the properties and transformation relationships of second-gradient continua and their internal virtual work functionals. Piola transformation formulae are derived, providing the relationships between Lagrangian and Eulerian fields necessary for the formulation of the Principle of Virtual Work. The transformations for stress, double-stress, and external virtual work functionals compatible with second-gradient internal work functionals are derived. These transformations include the transformations for contact surface and line forces, as well as contact surface double-forces.

A non-linear symmetric G1-conforming Bezier finite element formulation for the analysis of Kirchhoff beam assemblies

L. Greco et al.

Summary: The formulation presented in the study addresses Kirchhoff constraints and G(1)-continuity conditions for slender space curved rods and rod assemblies. It is developed in tensorial coordinate free form and involves a symmetric tangent stiffness operator obtained through the second covariant derivative of the internal energy functional. The G(1)-continuity conditions are met through a change of basis, resulting in a specific geometric term in the tangent stiffness matrix. The robustness and accuracy of the Kirchhoff model are demonstrated using numerical examples with Bezier interpolation.
