Summary of work:
Discrete Dislocation Dynamics models provide a framework to advance the understanding of plasticity. Multiphysical phenomena are often present during plastic deformation.
Two particular examples are the electromechanical behavior of plastically deformed piezoelectric materials and the thermomechanical behavior of metals under high strain rate plastic deformation. Therefore, two new Discrete Dislocation Dynamics models were developed; dislocations are directly modeled as crystallographic line defects in an elastic continuum.
These models are based on the Extended Finite Element Method (XFEM), which is a versatile tool used to analyze discontinuities, singularities, localized deformations, and complex geometries.
Currently, I am working on developing and implementing machine learning techniques for the crystal plasticity models.
