An intermediately-homogenized peridynamics approach to failure of microstructually disordered materials
Shucheta Shegufta, Michael Zaiser
Peridynamics provides a versatile tool for fracture modelling in materials where fracture pathways cannot be predicted beforehand, but must be envisaged as an emergent features of…

Peridynamics based model of anticrack-type fracture in brittle foams
Shucheta Shegufta, Michael Zaiser
A particular failure mode of highly porous brittle materials consists in the propagation of cracks under uniaxial compressive loads. Such 'anticracks' have been observed in a range…

Effects of disorder on deformation and failure of brittle porous materials
Jonas Ritter, Shucheta Shegufta, Michael Zaiser
The mechanical behavior of porous materials depends strongly on porosity and pore geometry, but also on morphological parameters characterizing the spatial arrangement of pores. He…
