The semi-explicit nonsmooth Newmark time integrator for robust unilateral contact in dynamic fragmentation simulations
Thibault Ghesquière-Diérickx, Guillaume Anciaux, Vincent Acary +1
Numerical simulations of solids undergoing dynamic fragmentation, a problem characterized by dynamic fracture and dense contacts, require accurately capturing the transition from a…

Origins of phase-field crack widening in dynamic fragmentation explained
Shad Durussel, Gergely Molnár, Jean-François Molinari
We investigate dynamic crack propagation and fragmentation with the phase-field fracture approach. The method was chosen for its ability to yield crack paths that are independent o…
