MATHICSE Technical Report : Isogeometric Analysis on V-reps: first results

Inspired by the introduction of Volumetric Modeling via volumetric representations (V-reps) by Massarwi and Elber in 2016, in this paper we present a novel approach for the construction of isogeometric numerical methods for elliptic PDEs on trimmed geometr ...

Artificial Muscles: Dielectric Elastomers Responsive to Low Voltages

Yauhen Sheima

The lack of soft high-dielectric-permittivity elastomers responsive to a low voltage has been a long-standing obstacle for the industrialization of dielectric elastomer actuators (DEA) technology. Here, elastomers that not only possess a high dielectric pe ...

The Reduced Immersed Method for Real-Time Fluid-Elastic Solid Interaction and Contact Simulation

Christopher Brandt

We introduce the Reduced Immersed Method (RIM) for the real-time simulation of two-way coupled incompressible fluids and elastic solids and the interaction of multiple deformables with (self-)collisions. Our framework is based on a novel discretization of ...

Influence of embedded steel column base strength on earthquake-induced residual deformations

Dimitrios Lignos, Hiroyuki Inamasu

Recent experiments on steel columns under multi-axis cyclic loading suggest that a steel column may experience appreciable axial shortening due to local buckling. Reconnaissance reports from recent earthquakes indicate that a number of embedded column base ...

Dealing with Correlations in Discrete Choice Models

Anna Fernández Antolín

The focus of this thesis is to develop methods to address research challenges related to correlation patterns in discrete choice models. In the context of correlations within alternatives, we extend the novel methodology of the multiple indicator solution ...

Scanning Probe Microscopy Characterization of Organic Self-Assembled Monolayers

Evangelia-Nefeli Athanasopoulou

As technology advances, surface coatings become more and more important to assure materials performances. In recent years, molecular coatings have found larger acceptance and uses. Among them, self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) are attractive because they ar ...

Fragility Curves for Wide-Flange Steel Columns and Implications on Building-Specific Earthquake-Induced Loss Assessment

Dimitrios Lignos, Ahmed Mohamed Ahmed Elkady, Subash Ghimire

Building-specific loss assessment methodologies utilize component fragility curves to compute the expected losses in the aftermath of earthquakes. Such curves are not available for steel columns assuming they remain elastic due to capacity design considera ...

A semi-infinite hydraulic fracture driven by a shear-thinning fluid

Brice Tanguy Alphonse Lecampion, Fatima-Ezzahra Moukhtari

We use the Carreau rheological model which properly accounts for the shear-thinning behaviour between the low and high shear rate Newtonian limits to investigate the problem of a semi-infinite hydraulic fracture propagating at a constant velocity in an imp ...

A discussion on the paper "Role of porosity on the stiffness and stability of (001) surface of the nanogranular C-S-H gel"

Paul Bowen, Aslam Kunhi Mohamed

This paper is a discussion of a recent publication by Sekkal and coworkers, which investigated the elasticity, cohesion, and stability of the C-S-H (001) surface as a function of porosity using molecular dynamics simulations. In our discussion, we highligh ...
