Towards the goal of building synthetic cells from the bottom‐up, the establishment of micrometer‐sized compartments that contain and support cell free transcription and translation that couple cellular structure to function is of critical importance. Proteinosomes, formed from crosslinked cationized protein‐polymer conjugates offer a promising solution to membrane‐bound compartmentalization with an...
In the present contribution we focus on a novel computational framework for the simulation of ductile fracture in elastoplastic solids. In particular, a fully non‐linear formulation of gradient plasticity is applied together with a higher order phase‐field approach to fracture to account for large elastic and plastic deformations along with three dimensional crack propagation. The proposed formulation...
In this contribution we focus on a novel variationally consistent formulation for thermomechanical coupled fracture problems. To be specific, we aim on a phase‐field approach to fracture such that the resulting system consists of three fields, the deformation map, the thermal field as well as the crack phase‐field. In the sense of Griffith energy criterion for brittle fracture, a crack initiates or...
In this contribution, we present a novel thermodynamically consistent contact formulation [1]. The thermomechanical framework is written in terms of the first and second law of thermodynamics, providing suitable restrictions on the constitutive law. The contact formulation involves mechanical and thermal contributions across the interface. For the mechanical contribution we apply different contact...
