A dynamic electro-thermo-mechanical model of dielectric breakdown in solids using peridynamics

Abstract: The electro-thermo-mechanical breakdown of dielectric solids is modeled using peridynamics to describe the brittle fracture of a material under high electric fields. A coupled electrostatic, elastodynamic, thermodynamic model is used wherein electrostatic forces are computed and applied to the mechanical model and temperature effects are included. Fracture is simulated using peridynamics, a reformulation of elasticity that incorporates material failure. Coupling occurs between the electrostatic and mechanical … Show more

“…To address the technical difficulties in the simulation of explosion-induced fragmentation, coupled PD-smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) formulations have been developed [75,76]. PD has also been applied in the context of electrothermomechanics, for instance to model dielectric breakdown in solids [77]. The works of Prakash et al [78] illustrate the application of electromechanical PD to study composite materials.…”

“…The breakdown of solid dielectrics occurs due to the propagation of plasma channels in the solid. The propagation of plasma channels is considered to be due to electromechanical and electrothermal instabilities as well as ionization processes, in turn, produced by the dynamic behavior of electric fields, charge and energy within the channels and the dielectric material [ 40 ].…”

“…The breakdown process of oil-impregnated paper was very complex, involving thermal, electrical and mechanical factors [18,25]. According to Figures 2 and 4, breakdown voltages at −20 °C and 0 °C were hardly influenced by temperature.…”
