Effect of Creep on Corrosion-Induced Cracking
Ismail Aldellaa, Petr Havlásek, Milan Jirásek +1
For corrosion-induced cracking in reinforced concrete, naturally occurring corrosion rates are so low that rust accumulates often over tens of years near the surface of the reinfor…
3D network modelling of fracture processes in fibre-reinforced geomaterials
Peter Grassl, Adrien Antonelli
The width of fracture process zones in geomaterials is commonly assumed to depend on the type of heterogeneity of the material. Still, very few techniques exist, which link the typ…
Hydro-mechanical network modelling of particulate composites
Ignatios Athanasiadis, Simon J. Wheeler, Peter Grassl
Differential shrinkage in particulate quasi-brittle materials causes microcracking which reduces durability in these materials by increasing their mass transport properties. A hydr…
Three-Dimensional Network Model for Coupling~of~Fracture and Mass Transport in Quasi-Brittle Geomaterials
Peter Grassl, John Bolander
Dual three-dimensional networks of structural and transport elements were combined to model the effect of fracture on mass transport in quasi-brittle geomaterials. Element connecti…
On a 2D hydro-mechanical lattice approach for modelling hydraulic fracture
Peter Grassl, Caroline Fahy, Domenico Gallipoli +1
A 2D lattice approach to describe hydraulic fracturing is presented. The interaction of fluid pressure and mechanical response is described by Biot's theory. The lattice model is a…
Evaluation of nonlocal approaches for modelling fracture near nonconvex boundaries
Peter Grassl, Dimitrios Xenos, Milan Jirásek +1
Integral-type nonlocal damage models describe the fracture process zones by regular strain profiles insensitive to the size of finite elements, which is achieved by incorporating w…
