Computational Mechanics : Space Materials

These videos were produced (in their entirety) by Marquette Diederich College of Communication students as part of the Corporate Media course (Prof. Kris Holodak). They introduce the wide array of modern applications of computaional modeling in engineering science.

Overview of Fatigue

Other fatigue overview videos are found here and here

These videos were produced (in their entirety) by Marquette Diederich College of Communication students as part of the Corporate Media course (Prof. Kris Holodak). They introduce basic concepts in Mechanical Engineering and Materials Science related to mechanical fatigue.

Copper Spall Simulation

Simulations of copper spallation based on a near field high energy diffraction microscopy nf-HEDM microstructure. More details in Journal of Dynamic Behavior of Materials

Dislocation Evolution in Ti-6Al-4V

The red regions are high dislocation density imitating from the gray region which represent beta phase titanium. This shows that the beta phase can effect localization of strain and dislocation density in the Ti-6Al-4V alpha phase (i.e. the area enclosed by the gray beta regions). More details in Modelling and Simulation in Materials Science and Engineering

High Speed Foam Impact

A titanium (red) and lead (green) flyer impact a titanium foam at 400 m/s (roughly 900 mph). Only a quarter of the model is simulated.The lead starts to behave more like a fluid and the titanium form is significantly distorted. More details in International Journal of Solids and Structures
