Journal ArticleDOI

Variational Delaunay approach to the generation of tetrahedral finite element meshes

TL;DR: An algorithm which generates tetrahedral decomposition of a general solid body, whose surface is given as a collection of triangular facets, and uses the results of Rajan which re‐formulate Delaunay triangulation as a linear programming problem.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quantum mechanics based multiscale modeling of stress-induced phase transformations in iron

TL;DR: In this article, a methodology to construct high-fidelity quantum mechanics based nonlinear elastic energy densities, amenable to be included in microstructural optimization procedures like sequential lamination is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stacking faults and partial dislocations in graphene

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate two mechanisms of crystallographic slip in graphene, corresponding to glide and shuffle generalized stacking faults (GSF), and compute their γ-curves using Sandia National Laboratories Large-scale Atomic/Molecular Massively Parallel Simulator (LAMMPS).
Journal ArticleDOI

A linearized porous brittle damage material model with distributed frictional-cohesive faults

TL;DR: In this paper, Pandolfi et al. presented a simplified model of damaging porous material, obtained through consistent linearization from a recursive-faulting material model described in.
Journal ArticleDOI

A sublinear-scaling approach to density-functional-theory analysis of crystal defects

TL;DR: This paper develops a sublinear-scaling method for the study of crystal defects using ab-initio Density Functional Theory (DFT), its parallel implementation and an assessment of convergence and performance by means of test cases concerned with point defects in magnesium.
