Damage Simulation of a Random Aggregate Model Induced by Microwave under Different Discontinuous Ratios and Exposure Times

الملخص EN

A random aggregate algorithmic method and a numerical model for two-phase materials (composed of quartz and plagioclase) with different discontinuous ratios and irradiation times were studied based on the discrete element method using two-dimensional particle flow code ( P F C 2 D ).

The results showed that this algorithm can simulate random irregular aggregate shapes.

Furthermore, crack initiation and development and the coalescence process of microwave-induced material damage could be predicted using the discrete element method.

After analysis of this study, the micro crack originated from the boundary of the high-absorption-phase plagioclase crystal and expanded around the plagioclase, extending into the quartz material.

The crack morphology presented a radial network.
