A Novel Material for In Situ Construction on Mars: Experiments and Numerical Simulations
Lin Wan, Roman Wendner, Gianluca Cusatis
A significant step in space exploration during the 21st century will be human settlement on Mars. Instead of transporting all the construction materials from Earth to the red plane…
Asymptotic Expansion Homogenization of Discrete Fine-Scale Models with Rotational Degrees of Freedom for the Simulation of Quasi-Brittle Materials
Roozbeh Rezakhani, Gianluca Cusatis
Discrete fine-scale models, in the form of either particle or lattice models, have been formulated successfully to simulate the behavior of quasi-brittle materials whose mechanical…
Spectral Stiffness Microplane Model for Quasibrittle Textile Composites
Marco Salviato, Shiva Esna Ashari Esfahani, Gianluca Cusatis
The present contribution proposes a general constitutive model to simulate the orthotropic stiffness, pre-peak nonlinearity, failure envelopes, and the post-peak softening and frac…
