Dual boundary element method for analyzing three-dimensional cracks in layered and graded halfspaces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
This paper presents a dual boundary element analysis of three-dimensional cracks in layered and graded halfspaces. The fundamental solution of a multilayered solid is used to develop the dual boundary element method so that only the external boundary ...

Cut Bogner-Fox-Schmit elements for plates

open access: yesAdvanced Modeling and Simulation in Engineering Sciences, 2020
We present and analyze a method for thin plates based on cut Bogner-Fox-Schmit elements, which are $$C^1$$ C 1 elements obtained by taking tensor products of Hermite splines.

Social Functioning Within the First Years After Pediatric Brain Tumor Diagnosis and the Relationship With Family Psychosocial Risk

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Survivors of pediatric brain tumors (PBTs) can experience long‐term social difficulties, impacting quality of life. Beyond medical and environmental factors, family psychosocial risk may play a role in social outcomes by shaping the caregiving environment and may provide intervention options.

3D analysis of coupled thin-walled structural elements by means of standard boundary element formulations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Recently, some improvements of the generic BE/BE coupling algorithm based on Krylov's solvers, proposed by the first author of this paper and outlined in previous papers, were carried out by including discontinuous boundary elements in the BE code.

A Novel Mesh Quality Improvement Method for Boundary Elements

open access: yesJournal of Applied Mathematics, 2012
In order to improve the boundary mesh quality while maintaining the essential characteristics of discrete surfaces, a new approach combining optimization-based smoothing and topology optimization is developed. The smoothing objective function is modified,

MODELLING OF SOIL BEHAVIOR IN DYNAMIC LOAD

open access: yesInternational Journal for Computational Civil and Structural Engineering, 2017
The paper focuses on simulation of dynamic “structure – soil” interaction and unbounded soil halfspace. Principles for new finite elements developed in LIRA-SAPR software are described.

Referral Patterns and Diagnostic Timeliness in Pediatric Cancer: A Hospital‐Based Study in Indonesia

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Timely diagnosis and treatment are critical for improving survival among children with cancer. In low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs), delays are common and may be influenced by fragmented referral pathways and diagnostic limitations.

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Non-linear analysis of reinforced concrete plates by the boundary element method and continuum damage mechanics = Análise não-linear de placas em concreto armado pelo método dos elementos de contorno e mecânica do dano contínuo

open access: yesActa Scientiarum: Technology, 2009
In this work, non-linear analyses of reinforced concrete plates are performed by using a BEM formulation, based on Kirchhoff’s theory, which has already proved to be a robust technique to deal with plate problems.
