A statistical mechanics framework for polymer chain scission, based on the concepts of distorted bond potential and asymptotic matching
Jason Mulderrig, Brandon Talamini, Nikolaos Bouklas
To design increasingly tough, resilient, and fatigue-resistant elastomers and hydrogels, the relationship between controllable network parameters at the molecular level to macrosco…
A Variational Phase-Field Model For Ductile Fracture with Coalescence Dissipation
Tianchen Hu, Brandon Talamini, Andrew J. Stershic +2
A novel phase-field for ductile fracture model is presented. The model is developed within a consistent variational framework in the context of finite-deformation kinematics. A nov…
Progressive damage and rupture in polymers
Brandon Talamini, Yunwei Mao, Lallit Anand
Progressive damage, which eventually leads to failure, is ubiquitous in biological and synthetic polymers. The simplest case to consider is that of elastomeric materials, which can…
