During the last decade the offshore wind industry grew ceaselessly and engineering
challenges continuously arose in that area. Installation of foundation piles, known as …

This article reports an improved Taylor approximation of the Arruda-Boyce model. Aided by
recurrence relationships for the inverse Langevin function, this new expansion can be used …

Hyperelastic models have been widely used to model polymers and soft tissues. However,
most hyperelastic models are phenomenological material models. Based on statistical …

Abstract The Alternating Frequency-Time (AFT) Harmonic Balance method has been widely
applied in the analysis of non-linear mechanical systems under periodic excitation …

This paper reports a theoretical and numerical framework to model nonlinear waves in
elastic-plastic solids. Formulated in the Eulerian frame, the governing equations employed …

Considerable steps to assess the structural capability of laser directed energy deposition
(DED) aim to determine the viability of repair processes for integrally bladed rotors (IBRs) …

A vibration analysis of a flexible follower in an oscillating follower cam system undergoing a
rise-dwell-fall-dwell (RDFD) motion is performed. Owing to the time-dependent boundary …

Eulerian formulations of the equations of finite-deformation solid dynamics are ideal for
numerical implementation in modern high-resolution shock-capturing schemes. These …
