The extended finite element method (XFEM) has become a powerful and effective technique
for modeling fracture problems without remeshing. In this paper, we introduce a novel and …

Voronoi tessellation techniques are widely accepted methods for the generation of
representative models of polycrystalline microstructures of metallurgic and ceramic …

Thin-walled gears have high power density and are the main gear type in aeronautical
applications, but threatened by the traveling wave vibration (TWV). In this paper, a novel …

The paper presents an assumed strain formulation over polygonal meshes to accurately
evaluate the strain fields in nonlocal damage models. An assume strained technique based …

With the rising cost of energy and the advancement of corporate social responsibility, there
is a growing interest in addressing the challenge of recovering and storing high-temperature …

This work presents a numerical workflow to generate a virtual packed bed made of non-
spherical polydisperse particles, and subsequently predict its permeability. Wood chips were …

This paper deals with modelling the mechanical behaviour of silica-alumina open-cell
porous ceramics obtained by viscous flow sintering. The modelling approach is based on …

The capability of accurately reproducing the microstructural features of polycrystalline
materials is of fundamental importance for the correct simulation of the micromechanical …

La modélisation par la méthode des automates cellulaires (AC) consiste à paver un espace
avec un réseau de cellules identiques, qui communiquent entre elles et avec leurs …
