Simulation of the laser welding process (with a total of 8 weld passes) joining two separate vessel segments. The animation shows the complete transient of temperature, equivalent plastic strain, and von Mises stress. The coupled thermomechanical simulation is set up using the MALAMUTE app. Deposition of the weld material is modeled using element subdomain modifiers.

A complete charge-discharge cycle of a 3D full solid-state battery. The results are generated using EEL developed by the Argonne National Laboratory. The theoretical framework is described in Hu, T., Messner, M. C., Barai, P., & Barua, B. (2022).

Flow streamlines computed with the Navier-Stokes module, through a digital rock reconstructed with the Image Reader from a stack of microCT scans (postprocessing done in Paraview). The framework is described in Lesueur et al. (2017).

Evolution of the 100C temperature during 30 years of injection/production for a complex doublet system into a fractured geothermal reservoir. Based on GOLEM, a MOOSE based application for thermo-hydro-mechanical simulations of fractured reservoirs.

Using an arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) formulation a laser is rotated around the surface of a stainless steel block. The steel first melts and then begins to evaporate. The recoil force from evaporation deforms the surface of the melt pool which in turn drives flow in the melt pool interior. Melt flow is determined using the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations while mesh deformation is determined using a linear elasticity equation.

The GrainTracker is a utility that dramatically reduces the number of order parameters needed to model a large polycrystal system with the phase-field module. This video shows the dynamic remapping that occurs as "reused" order parameters get too close to one and other as the simulation evolves.

The level set equation is commonly used to for interface tracking, especially when the interface velocity is known. MOOSE contains a level set module, for more information see Level Set Module.
