Abstract A recently developed novel three-dimensional (3D) computational
framework for the analysis of polycrystalline materials at the grain scale is
described in this lecture. The framework is based on the employment of: i) 3D
Laguerre-Voronoi tessellations for the representation of the micro-morphology
of polycrystalline materials; ii) boundary integral equations for the
representation of the mechanics of the individual grains; iii) suitable cohesive
traction-separation laws for the representation of the multi-physics behavior of
the interfaces (either inter-granular or trans-granular) within the aggregate, which
are the seat of damage initiation and evolution processes, up to complete decohesion and failure. The lecture will describe… More >
