The aim of the present chapter is to provide an in‐depth survey of arbitrary Lagrangian–
Eulerian (ALE) methods, including both conceptual aspects of the mixed kinematical …

The installation of displacement piles in sand leads to severe changes in the stress state,
density and soil properties around the pile tip and shaft, and therefore has a significant …

This paper presents a newly developed quasi arbitrary Lagrangian–Eulerian finite element
method (QALE-FEM) for simulating water waves based on fully nonlinear potential theory …

Various modelling approaches using commercial numerical software have been proposed
in the friction stir welding literature. We initiate a comparative analysis of such modellings …

The modeling of metal cutting has proved to be particularly complex due to the diversity of
physical phenomena involved, including thermo-mechanical coupling, contact/friction and …

The aim of this work is to develop a numerical framework for accurately and robustly
simulating the different conditions exhibited by thermo‐mechanical problems. In particular …

During installation of a displacement pile, the soil around the pile is heavily distorted. The
resulting changes in soil density and stress state around the pile determine the ultimate pile …

Uplift of underground pipelines is frequently encountered in urban tunneling and landslide-
prone areas, seriously affecting their structural integrity and serviceability. However, the …

This paper outlines the development as well as implementation of a numerical procedure for
coupled finite element analysis of dynamic problems in geomechanics, particularly those …

This paper presents a study on the metal cutting simulation with a particular numerical
technique, the Particle Finite Element Method (PFEM) with a new modified time integration …
