Project Overview
The study proposes a model for modeling micro structure evolution in various materials and systems, including concrete structures, thermal barrier coatings, thermal protection systems, and gas turbines. It aims to predict different modes of damage for concrete and ceramic components in structural systems. The study highlights the impact of microstructure evolution and damage on mechanical and fracture response, and the need to analyze dynamic crack propagation and micro structure evolution to understand the overall failure and lifetime of civil structures.
