Chattez avec Graph Search
Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.
AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
In this work we study, from the numerical point of view, a problem involving one-dimensional thermoelastic mixtures with two different temperatures; that is, when each component of the mixture has its own temperature. The mechanical problem consists of two ...
A new finite element method for the efficient discretization of elliptic homogenization problems is proposed. These problems, characterized by data varying over a wide range of scales cannot be easily solved by classical numerical methods that need mesh re ...
The accurate prediction of transmural stresses in arterial walls requires on the one hand robust and efficient numerical schemes for the solution of boundary value problems including fluid–structure interactions and on the other hand the use of a material ...
In everyday life of an engineer, CAD (Computer Aided Design) and FE (Finite Element) programs play an important role. The two different structures, CAD and FE programs, use different mathematical functions. In CAD programs, so called NURBS find their appli ...
Hydrocontest is a student competition involving teams from different universities around Switzerland and the world. This projects aims at providing an analysis of the performances of hydrofoils by means of computational fluid dynamics in a High Performance ...
The aim of this thesis is to investigate the mechanisms behind dynamic fragmentation. This phenomenon occurs in a material when a blast or impact loading nucleates multiple cracks, whose propagation and coalescence break the specimen into fragments. Althou ...
We are interested in the mathematical modeling of the deformation of the human lung tissue, called the lung parenchyma, during the respiration process. The parenchyma is a foam-like elastic material containing millions of air-filled alveoli connected by a ...
In this study, an experimental campaign was conducted to characterize the length effect on the elasticity and tensile strength of clear spruce wood parallel to the grain direction. Four groups of specimens of different lengths, cut from the same log, were ...
This paper is concerned with the mathematical analysis of a coupled elliptic–parabolic system modeling the interaction between the propagation of electric potential and subsequent deformation of the cardiac tissue. The problem consists in a reaction–diffus ...
In the 90ies the IBOIS-EPFL developed a new kind of shell structure. The ribs were made with simple boards waved together to form a spatial rib shell. However, the engineer currently does not have any effective method to calculate these kinds of spatial st ...
