A multi-physics method for fracture and fragmentation at high strain-rates
Tim Wallis, Philip T. Barton, Nikolaos Nikiforakis
This work outlines a diffuse interface method for the study of fracture and fragmentation in ductile metals at high strain-rates in Eulerian finite volume simulations. The work is…
The Development of a Multi-Physics Approach for Modelling the Response of Aerospace Fastener Assemblies to Lightning Attachment
William Bennett, Stephen Millmore, Nikolaos Nikiforakis
This work is concerned with the development of a numerical modelling approach for studying the time-accurate response of aerospace fasteners subjected to high electrical current lo…
A unified multi-phase and multi-material formulation for combustion modelling
Maria Nikodemou, Louisa Michael, Nikolaos Nikiforakis
The motivation of this work is to produce an integrated formulation for material response due to detonation wave loading. Here, we focus on elastoplastic structural response. In pa…
An improved equation of state for air plasma simulations
Frederik Träuble, Stephen Millmore, Nikolaos Nikiforakis
This work is concerned with the development of a novel, accurate equation of state for describing partially ionised air plasma in local thermodynamic equilibrium. One key applicati…
A Flux-enriched Godunov Method for Multi-material Problems with Interface Slide and Void Opening
Tim Wallis, Philip T. Barton, Nikolaos Nikiforakis
This work outlines a new three-dimensional diffuse interface finite volume method for the simulation of multiple solid and fluid components featuring large deformations, sliding an…
Multi-physics simulations of lightning strike on elastoplastic substrates
Stephen Millmore, Nikolaos Nikiforakis
This work is concerned with the numerical simulation of elastoplastic, electromagnetic and thermal response of aerospace materials due to their interaction with a plasma arc under…
