Fixed grid finite elements in elasticity problems

M.J. García‐Ruíz, G.P. Steven

A 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. Stander

A 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 Soh

A procedure for developing bi‐material elements, which are able to eliminate the weakness of the conventional finite elements in determining the stress distributions along…

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. Ord

We 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. Kaushik

Two anisotropic yield criteria, that employ quadratic stress functions and have been extensively used for the elastoplastic analysis of composite materials, are considered…

Automatic adaptive mesh generation using metric advancing front approach

C.K. Lee

A new mesh generation procedure is suggested for the generation of 2D adaptive finite element meshes with strong element gradation and stretching effects. Metric tensors are…
