    Fracture Modeling of Viscoelastic Behavior of Solid Propellants Based on Accelerated Phase-Field Model

    Yuan Mei1,2, Daokui Li1,2, Shiming Zhou1,2,*, Zhibin Shen1,2

    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.145, No.1, pp. 153-187, 2025, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2025.070252 - 30 October 2025

    Abstract Viscoelastic solids, such as composite propellants, exhibit significant time and rate dependencies, and their fracture processes display high levels of nonlinearity. However, the correlation between crack propagation and viscoelastic energy dissipation in these materials remains unclear. Therefore, accurately modeling and understanding of their fracture behavior is crucial for relevant engineering applications. This study proposes a novel viscoelastic phase-field model. In the numerical implementation, the adopted adaptive time-stepping iterative strategy effectively accelerates the coupling iteration efficiency between the phase-field and the displacement field. Moreover, all unknown parameters in the model, including the form of the phase-field More >

    Phase-Field Simulation of δ Hydride Precipitation with Interfacial Anisotropy

    Hailong Nie1, Xincheng Shi1, Wenkui Yang1, Kaile Wang1, Yuhong Zhao2,1,3,*

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.77, No.2, pp. 1425-1443, 2023, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2023.044510 - 29 November 2023

    Abstract Previous studies of hydride in zirconium alloys have mainly assumed an isotropic interface. In practice, the difference in crystal structure at the interface between the matrix phase and the precipitate phase results in an anisotropic interface. With the purpose of probing the real evolution of hydrides, this paper couples an anisotropy function in the interfacial energy and interfacial mobility. The influence of anisotropic interfacial energy and interfacial mobility on the morphology of hydride precipitation was investigated using the phase-field method. The results show that the isotropy hydride precipitates a slate-like morphology, and the anisotropic hydride… More >
