This article deals with the calibration of a fracture criterion that has been implemented in a material model in LS-DYNA. The failure process in thin-walled metallic materials is complex and often due to interaction between plastic instability phenomena and ductile fracture. The material failure...
A snake robot can traverse cluttered and irregular environments by using irregularities around its body as pushpoints to aid the propulsion. This is denoted obstacle-aided locomotion and requires the snake robot to have two features: 1) a smooth exterior surface combined with 2) a contact force...
