Project Phase-Field

The Phase-Field formulation is used to solved front problems with a continuous approach (more efficient than a discrete one).

Mini Projects

• Rock properties during debonding
  

  Investigation of the impact of the debonding on the elastic properties of a cemented granular medium.
  The github project
  

• Hydration of a cement-based material
  

  Some sources of cement are introduced in water. They dissolve, generating solute. This solute is consumed to create C-S-H gel.
  The github project
  

• Indentation of a solid during pressure solution
  

  A solid is under pressure solution phenomenon during an indentation test.
