Využití spektrální metody při simulacích modelu fázového pole pro martenzitické transformace / Application of the spectral method to the simulation of the phase-field model for martensitic transformationSejková, Klára January 2020 (has links)
For some alloys martensitic transformation is responsible for the so-called shape memory effect and pseudoelasticity. These properties are used in a wide range of industry applications. Each of these materials is transformed to the shape it was manufactured in when heated to its critical temperature (austenite phase) no matter how seriously it was deformed at lower temperatures (martensite phase). Looking at the microstructure, one can observe significant change of crystalographic lattice depending on temperature and deformation. This the- sis focuses on modelling the evolution of microstructure during deformation for materials in the martensite phase. In this case, the creation of multiple variants of martensite is observed, divided by interfaces where a part of energy is stored. This behaviour can be described by the phase-field model. The numerical im- plementation of this model using the standard finite element method requires large computational costs. The aim of this thesis is to implement this model in MATLAB using a spectral method based on the fast Fourier transform, which is suitable for solving problems on a periodic domain. It is interesting to com- pare the computation using spectral method on a conventional PC with the computation written in FEniCS computed on a cluster. However, the...

Geometry controlled phase behavior in nanowetting and jamming / Effet géométriques dans les transitions de mouillage et dans la physique des empilements désordonnésMickel, Walter 30 September 2011 (has links)
Cette thèse porte sur différents aspects géométriques et morphologiques concernant des problèmes de mouillage et d'empilement de sphères. Nous proposons tout d'abord une nouvelle méthode de simulation pour étudier le mouillage et le glissement d'un liquide sur une surface nanostructurée: un modèle de champ de phase en lien avec la théorie de la fonctionnelle de la densité dynamique. Nous étudions grâce à cette méthode la possibilité de transformer une surface quelconque en surface omniphobe (c'est à dire qui repousse tous les liquides). Nous montrons que contrairement à la théorie classique de Cassie-Baxter-Wenzel, il est possible d'inverser la mouillabilité d'une surface en la texturant, et nous montrons qu'une surface monovaluée, i.e. sans constrictions, peut produire un comportement omniphobe c'est à dire repousser tous les liquides grâce à un effet de pointe. La géométrie a également un effet considérable dans les milieux vitreux ou bloqués. Les empilements aléatoires de sphères conduisent par exemple à des état bloqués ("jamming") et nous montrons que la structure locale de ces systèmes est universelle, c'est à dire indépendante de la méthode de préparation. Pour cela, nous introduisons des paramètres d'ordre - les tenseurs de Minkowski - qui suppriment les problèmes de robustesse qu'ont les paramètres d'ordre utilisés classiquement. Ces nouveaux paramètres d'ordre conduisent à une vision unifiée, basée sur des principes géométriques. Enfin, nous montrons grâce aux tenseurs de Minkowski que les empilements de sphères se mettent à cristalliser au delà du point d'empilement aléatoire le plus dense ("random close packing") / This thesis is devoted to several aspects of geometry and morphology in wetting problems and hard sphere packings. First, we propose a new method to simulate wetting and slip on nanostructured substrates: a phase field model associated with a dynamical density theory approach. We showed omniphobicity, meaning repellency, no matter the chemical properties of the liquid on monovalued surfaces, i.e. surfaces without overhangs, which is in contradiction with the macroscopic Cassie-Baxter-Wenzel theory, can produce so-called We checked systematically the impact of the surface parameters on omniphobic repellency, and we show that the key ingredient are line tensions, which emerge from needle shaped surface structures. Geometrical effects have also an important influence on glassy or jammed systems, for example amorphous hard sphere systems in infinite pressure limit. Such hard sphere packings got stuck in a so-called jammed phase, and we shall demonstrate that the local structure in such systems is universal, i.e. independent of the protocol of the generation. For this, robust order parameters - so-called Minkowski tensors - are developed, which overcome robustness deficiencies of widely used order parameters. This leads to a unifying picture of local order parameters, based on geometrical principles. Furthermore, we find with the Minkowski tensor analysis crystallization in jammed sphere packs at the random closed packing point

Phase-field modeling of brittle fracture along the thickness direction of plates and shellsAmbati, Marreddy, Heinzmann, Jonas, Seiler, Martha, Kästner, Markus 22 January 2024 (has links)
The prediction of fracture in thin-walled structures is decisive for a wide range of applications. Modeling methods such as the phase-field method usually consider cracks to be constant over the thickness which, especially in load cases involving bending, is an imperfect approximation. In this contribution, fracture phenomena along the thickness direction of structural elements (plates or shells) are addressed with a phase-field modeling approach. For this purpose, a new, so called “mixed-dimensional” model is introduced, which combines structural elements representing the displacement field in the two-dimensional shell midsurface with continuum elements describing a crack phase-field in the three-dimensional solid space. The proposed model uses two separate finite element discretizations, where the transfer of variables between the coupled twoand three-dimensional fields is performed at the integration points which in turn need to have corresponding geometric locations. The governing equations of the proposed mixed-dimensional model are deduced in a consistent manner from a total energy functional with them also being compared to existing standard models. The resulting model has the advantage of a reduced computational effort due to the structural elements while still being able to accurately model arbitrary through-thickness crack evolutions as well as partly along the thickness broken shells due to the continuum elements. Amongst others, the higher accuracy aswell as the numerical efficiency of the proposed model are tested and validated by comparing simulation results of the new model to those obtained by standard models using numerous representative examples.
