Die Anwendung der Finite-Element-Methode auf nichtlineare technische Probleme hat in
den letzten Jahren-auch wegen der stark angestiegenen Rechnerleistung-erheblich …

FE-simulation of complex metal forming processes is often hampered by mesh distortion. In
this case a new mesh of quadrilateral or hexahedral elements must be generated …

The simulation of manufacturing processes has significant importance. The research and
development of metal forming simulation started in the 1960s from the elastoplastic analysis …

The bi-axial experimental equipment [Flores, P., Rondia, E., Habraken, AM, 2005a.
Development of an experimental equipment for the identification of constitutive laws (Special …

The paper presents an experimental study of the quasi-static deformation behavior of a TA-
6V in sheet form. To quantify the plastic anisotropy and the tension–compression asymmetry …

This paper presents an original approach to the numerical modelling of unilateral contact by
the finite element method. The main point is the development of mixed contact finite …

This thesis is dedicated to the study of structural and petroleum geology problems. To this
purpose, a frictional elastoplastic law based on the Van Eekelen criterion is formulated …

This paper proposes a fully automatic analysis framework for static damage analysis of
quasi-brittle materials exploiting adaptive mesh refinement approaches as well as adaptive …

Needle insertion into soft biological tissues has been of interest to researchers in the recent
decade due to its minimal invasiveness in diagnostic and therapeutic medical procedures …

Recrystallization and grain growth evolutions during metal forming processes are
considered. Coupling between the thermo-mechanical and microstructure processes is …
