An essential prerequisite for the efficient biomechanical tailoring of crops is to accurately
relate mechanical behavior to compositional and morphological properties across different …

Lodging impedes the successful cultivation of cereal crops. Complex anatomy, morphology
and environmental interactions make identifying reliable and measurable traits for breeding …

We describe a novel computational framework based on the cut finite element method
(CutFEM) for process-oriented simulation in mechanized tunneling. The framework …

Cut-cell quadrature based on the moment fitting scheme generates an accurate numerical
integration rule for each cut element with the same small number of point evaluations as a …

Understanding the contribution of stem cell wall components to lodging is important in
developing breeding programs aimed at reducing lodging in cereal crops. This study is one …

The safe and stable operation of the radial gate is highly essential for hydropower stations.
As the dynamic load of gate, water flow generally causes the irregular distribution of …

Many interface formulations, eg based on asymptotic thin interphase models or material
surface theories, involve higher-order differential operators and discontinuous solution …
