Self healing composites modeling

Participants : Mario Ricchiuto [Corresponding member] , Gérard Vignoles, Gregory Perrot.

This year we have started the coupling between COCA and the structural solver of the LCTS lab. The coupling is done for the moment using simple scripting, and providing the structural solver with an equivalent fiber-surface in contact with oxygen at a given time. A simplified potential flow model (classical source potential) for the oxide has also been developed and is being tested.
