This study presents a methodology to predict the fatigue failure of materials due cyclic loading within realm peridynamic theory. approach incorporates material intrinsically without need for external crack growth criteria and post-processing. Failure occurs when where it is energetically favorable. Fatigue life prediction natural extension initiation while allowing degradation. The present focuses on phase rather than initiation. During phase, degrades, process viewed as quasi-static series...
Abstract This study presents an application of peridynamic theory for predicting residual strength impact damaged building components by considering a reinforced panel subjected to multiple load paths.

The life-prediction analysis of an electronic package requires a sequence critical assumptions concerning the finite element models, such as slice model and global with or without submodel. Although specifics analyses are available in literature, comparison among themselves against same measured life cycles does not exist. This study addresses questions arising during by considering two particular packages different geometric material compositions. Solder joint reliability for each performed...
The numerical simulation of droplet impingement at high Mach numbers is a challenging problem, involving wide range physical mechanisms, including material and flow discontinuities, interfacial instabilities, phase change, turbulence.
