The Vector Form Intrinsic Finite Element (VFIFE) method represents an advanced computational approach that redefines conventional finite element analysis through an intrinsic, vector‐based formulation ...
Elasticity imaging and material property characterisation represent a rapidly evolving field that bridges computational mechanics and experimental measurement techniques to non‐invasively deduce the ...
In 2013, Boeing rolled out the first 787-9 Dreamliner, the newest member of the super-efficient 787 family. In order to power this massive aircraft, Rolls-Royce designed the state of the art Trent ...
What Are FEM, FDM and FVM? FEM, FDM and FVM differ from one another in important ways. Understanding these distinctions is key to selecting the method most appropriate for your purposes. The ...
The extended finite element method (XFEM) has been developed for modeling arbitrary discontinuities in finite elements. This method enables evolving discontinuites to be treated without remeshing. One ...
Computational mechanics research at Northwestern is blazing new ground in multiscale analysis, meshfree methods and large-scale simulation. Multiscale methods, which link methodologies from quantum ...
Using novel theoretical and modeling tools such as finite element analysis can greatly accelerate widespread applications in many areas of nanotechnology. Polymer reinforcement using fillers is a ...
