A novel approach is introduced to determine the time evolution of optical forces and torques on arbitrary shape nanostructures by combining Maxwell's stress tensor with the surface integral equation method (SIE). Conventional time averaging of Maxwell’s st ...
In this thesis, a computational approach is used to study two-phase flow including phase change by direct numerical simulation.
This approach follows the interface with an adaptive moving mesh.
The incompressible Navier-Stokes equations are solved, in tw ...
Modern mesh generation addresses the development of robust algorithms that construct a discrete representation of the geometry into polytopal elements conforming to divergent properties: (i) fidelity to complex geometrical features, (ii) support for high s ...
This paper reviews the state of the art and discusses recent developments in the field of adaptive isogeometric analysis, with special focus on the mathematical theory. This includes an overview of available spline technologies for the local resolution of ...
Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composite materials are currently being selected for the design of lightweight and efficient structural members in a wide number of engineering applications. Sandwich panels with glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) face she ...
Application of the isogeometric method is illustrated for free and forced vibration analyzes of sinusoidally corrugated functionally graded carbon nanotube reinforced composite (FG-CNTRC) thin panels. These panels can be used as a potential structure for m ...
An experimental set-up consisting of a loading device inserted in a μCT scanner was numerically simulated to predict the strain at the bone-implant interface of the scapula after applying various loading conditions. The aim of the project was to determine ...
This thesis examines the out-of-plane stability bracing of deep wide flange steel columns in moment resisting frames (MRFs) under cyclic loading. This is performed through a detailed continuum finite element analysis including a validation process and a pa ...
An innovative Flexible Coupled Level Set (LS) and Volume of Fluid (VOF) algorithm (flexCLV) to simulate two-phase flows at the microscale on unstructured and non-uniform meshes is proposed. The method combines the advantages of the VOF method in terms of m ...
