Multiscale damage and fracture modeling of polyethylene using molecular dynamics simulations and continuum internal state variable theory
<p>A multiscale model using simulated nanoscale damage (free volume) evolution and continuum damage evolution equations (void nucleation, growth, and coalescence) for the amorphous phase of polyethylene (PE) is presented. Explicit-atom Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations using a Modified Embed...
