Brittle anisotropic fracture propagation in quartz sandstone: insights from phase-field simulations
(Computational Geosciences, 2020-04-19)We developed a generalized multiphase-field modeling framework for addressing the problem of brittle fracture propagation in quartz sandstones at microscopic length scale. Within this numerical approach, the grain boundaries ... -
Multiphase-field modelling of crack propagation in geological materials and porous media with Drucker-Prager plasticity
(Computational Geosciences, 2020-10-22)A multiphase-field approach for elasto-plastic and anisotropic brittle crack propagation in geological systems consisting of different regions of brittle and ductile materials is presented and employed to computationally ...
