    The second Sandia Fracture Challenge: predictions of ductile failure under quasi-static and moderate-rate dynamic loading

    Ductile failure of structural metals is relevant to a wide range of engineering scenarios. Computational methods are employed to anticipate the critical conditions of failure, yet they sometimes provide inaccu...

    The Sandia Fracture Challenge: blind round robin predictions of ductile tearing

    Existing and emerging methods in computational mechanics are rarely validated against problems with an unknown outcome. For this reason, Sandia National Laboratories, in partnership with US National Science Fo...

    Rigid Body Considerations for Geometric Nonlinear Analysis of Structures Based on the Updated Lagrangian Formulation

    In the nonlinear analysis of elastic structures, the displacement increments generated at each incremental step can be divided into two parts as the rigid displacements and natural deformations. Based on the u...

    Nonlinear Theory of Control of Instability in a Liquid Film Flow

    Recent developments in the linear theory of control of instability in a falling liquid film over an inclined plane is briefly introduced. The linear theory predicts that the onset of two- and three-dimensional...
