The numerical simulation of internal features,such as inclusions and voids,is important to analyze their impact on the performance of composite materials.However,the complex geometries of internal features and the induced continuous-discontinuous(C-D)deformation fields are challenges to their numerical simulation.In this study,a 3D approach using a simple mesh to simulate irregular internal geometries is developed for the first time.With the help of a developed voxel crack model,image models that are efficient when recording complex geometries are directly imported into the simulation.Surface reconstructions,which are usually labor-intensive,are excluded from this approach.Moreover,using image models as the geometric input,image processing techniques are applied to detect material interfaces and develop contact pairs.Then,the C-D deformations of the complex internal features are directly calculated based on the numerical manifold method.The accuracy and convergence of the developed 3D approach are examined based on multiple benchmarks.Successful 3D C-D simulation of sandstones with naturally formed complex microfeatures demonstrates the capability of the developed approach.
