Abstract The main objective of this work is to gain a fundamental understanding of the behavior characteristics of a quenched and partitioned (Q&P) steel at high strain rates by employing Split Hopkinson bar testing, drop weight impact testing, electron backscatter
Microstructure informed constitutive models and SPH crystal plasticity modelling approaches Anxin Ma Group of mechanics of materials of IMDEA materials anxin.ma@imdea.org During the deformation of polycrystals, pronounced strain gradients may occur due to mis-orientations and eigen strains of phase transformation.
Abstract The objective of the present project is the development and numerical implemen- tation of constitutive equations for the coupled thermomechanical damage problem in the speci c context of the in nitesimal strain approximation, within the framework of the thermodynamics
