Fixed grid finite elements in elasticity problems
M.J. García‐Ruíz, G.P. StevenA fixed grid representation of the finite element domain is used to solve elasticity problems. An integration between CAD and FEM systems is made by using this fixed grid…
Design optimisation of a semi‐solid tyre using response surface approximations
W.J. Roux, R.J. du Preez, N. StanderA general approach for the construction of global approximations to structural behaviour using response surface methodology is presented. The computation and use of these…
Development of special bi‐material elements
Ai Kah SohA procedure for developing bi‐material elements, which are able to eliminate the weakness of the conventional finite elements in determining the stress distributions…
A numerical study of pore‐fluid, thermal and mass flow in fluid‐saturated porous rock basins
Chongbin Zhao, B.E. Hobbs, K. Baxter, H.B. Mühlhaus, A. OrdWe present a numerical methodology for the study of convective pore‐fluid, thermal and mass flow in fluid‐saturated porous rock basins. In particular, we investigate the…
Convexity studies of two anisotropic yield criteria in principal stress space
Pankaj, Mohammed Arif, Surendra K. KaushikTwo anisotropic yield criteria, that employ quadratic stress functions and have been extensively used for the elastoplastic analysis of composite materials, are…
Automatic adaptive mesh generation using metric advancing front approach
C.K. LeeA new mesh generation procedure is suggested for the generation of 2D adaptive finite element meshes with strong element gradation and stretching effects. Metric tensors…
