Abstract

This work describes the formulation adopted for the numerical simulation of the friction stir welding (FSW) process. FSW is a solid-state joining process (the [...]

Abstract

A new formulation for two-dimensional fluid-rigid body interaction problems is developed. In particular, vortex-induced oscillations of a rigid boy in viscous incompressible flow are studied. The incompressible Naiver-Stokes equations are used to describe the motion of the fluid, [...]

Abstract

In this paper, we describe a numerical model to simulate the evolution in time of the hydrodynamics of water storage tanks, with particular emphasis on the time evolution of chlorine concentration. [...]

Abstract

The arbitrary Lagrangian—Eulerian (ALE) formulation, which is already well established in the hydrodynamics and fluid-structure interaction fields, [...]

Abstract

A key issue in Arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) non-linear solid mechanics is the correct treatment of the convection terms in the constitutive [...]

Abstract

An analysis of the vane test using an Arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian formulation within a finite element framework is presented. This is suitable for [...]

Abstract

A new formulation for two-dimensional fluid–rigid body interaction problems is developed. In particular, vortex-induced oscillations of a rigid [...]

Abstract

The arbitrary Lagrangian–Eulerian (ALE) description in non‐linear solid mechanics is nowadays standard for hypoelastic–plastic models. An extension to hyperelastic–plastic [...]

Abstract

The consistent tangent matrix for density-dependent plastic models within the theory of isotropic multiplicative hyperelastoplasticity is presented [...]

Abstract

In this paper, a new strategy for the simulation of quasi-static cold compaction processes of powders is presented. A material model formulated within the framework of isotropic finite strain multiplicative hyperelastoplasticity is used. An elliptic plastic model expressed in terms [...]
