3D Stress State Dependent Failure Model for Fracture Simulations
Abstract: The state of stress is defined by triaxiality (hydrostatic pressure) and the lode angle parameter (deviatoric stress third invariant). The stress state not only varies with different kinds of loading but also with the location of the stress concentration, geometry of specimen and deformation. The LS-DYNA implementation of a strain-based, stress state dependent failure criterion for a ductile material is investigated through simulations of standard experiments in this paper. A …

Multi-Objective Optimization of Distributed Generator in the Transmission System
Abstract: This paper proposes a multi-objective optimization method to determine the optimal size allocation of four different types of distributed generators, that is, TYPE-1, TYPE-2, TYPE-3, and TYPE-4 in transmission networks. In one such optimization strategy, distributed generators are injected after the Newton–Raphson method, a popular power flow analysis tool, has been applied first. A power system’s steady-state operating conditions, including voltage magnitudes, phase angles, line flows, and power losses, can …
