Dr. Li has published more 120 articles in peer-reviewed scientific journals, and he is the author and co-author of two research monographs/graduate textbooks.


题目1Recent Developments in Computational Failure Mechanics报告摘要:

In this presentation, we shall discuss the recent developments in computational failure mechanics and its applications to simulations of crack growth, fragmentation, and dynamic fracture and structure failures. In the past a few decades, much progress has been made in developing novelnumerical methods that are capable of simulating and predicting both structural as well as material failures, which has been a major challenge for the conventional finite element methods. There are three types of approaches to this problem: microscale approach, macro scale approach, and multiscale approach. In this talk, we shall discuss the latest developments and the state-of-art technologies in simulation material failures at microscale level, macroscale level, and at the current multiscale level.

At microscale, molecular dynamics is a powerful method to simulate both crack growth as well as dislocation nucleation and propagations; and at macroscale level, the meshfree method, extended finite element method, and cohesive finite element method are three main simulation methodologies or techniques that are currently used for simulations of structural damages and failures in engineering applications. Basic mechanics principles, computational strategies, and application examples will be discussed to demonstrate how these methods are applied to solve real engineering problems.

Finally, we shall introduce our recently developed multiscale cohesive zone model that is capable of simulating arbitrary three-dimensional mixed mode dynamic fracture and fragmentation during high-speed impact. In this presentation, we shall also discuss what are the current focus as well as future challenges in this research area.


题目2Introduction to Bond-based Peridynamics and Simulation of Fracture报告摘要:

Peridynamics is a reformulation of continuum mechanics and it can be used to conduct fast simulation of fracture and fragmentation of solids without remesh. In this talk, we shall introduce and review the theory ofbond-based peridynamics as well as its computational formulations, focusing on issues of computer implementation and physical modeling.

In particular, we shall discuss the so-called lattice peridynamics and how to apply to solve fracture and damage of structure mechanics problems.

In particular, we shall present two-dimensional bond based peridynamics code during the lecture, and illustrate how to use the code to simulate fracture.


题目3Introduction to the State-based Peridynamics and Simulation ofFragmentation of Granular Materials报告摘要:

Peridynamics a relative new nonlocal meshfree particle method that can be used to conduct fast simulation of fragmentation of granular materials, such as soil, concrete materials, and ice solid. In this talk, we shall briefly introduce the state-based peridynamics methodology, and we shall then discuss our recent wok on developing a nonlinear peridynamics model of the non-saturated and the full saturated soils, and we apply them to simulate soil fragmentation due to both impulse and blast loads.

The presented work is the latest development of computational geotechnical materials.

First, we have extended the state-based peridynamics technique, which replaces the local differential equation with a non-local integral equation, to implement the Drucker-Prager constitutive model in peridynamics for finite deformation. Here the peridynamics form of the Hughes and Winget theory is derived for the finite deformation constitutive update. Second, we have developed a peridynamics U-p formulation for saturated soils. Third, numerical simulations have been carried out to verify the proposed peridynamics formulations in soil fragmentation for several bench mark problems. The comparison of the numerical, theoretical,and experimental results indicate that peridynamics model has the capability in prediction of the complex soil fragmentation under blast loads.
