A Conceptual Framework for Problems in Elastostatics [PDF]

Journal of Elasticity, 2011
In finite elasticity, the traditional local boundary-value problems are rarely appropriate. More often one has to consider non-local environmental loads. This paper gives a general description of schemes for formulating such non-local problems. Interesting examples are cavity problems, special cases of which are what I call basketball problems and tire

A Localized Version of the Dual‐Primal Finite Element Tearing and Interconnecting Method for the Partitioned Analysis of Heterogeneous Structural Systems

International Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering, Volume 127, Issue 2, 30 January 2026.
ABSTRACT FETI‐DP is a mature domain decomposition algorithm that has been successfully applied to different problems, demonstrating impressive performance. To be effective, the algorithm needs to be equipped with different technicalities that somewhat complicate its implementation.

Space‐Time Boundary Elements on Graded Meshes for 3D Elastodynamics

International Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering, Volume 126, Issue 20, 30 October 2025.
ABSTRACT The solution to the elastodynamic equations in the exterior of a polygonal or polyhedral domain or a screen exhibits singularities at corners and edges. This paper presents a space‐time boundary element method in 3D on algebraically graded meshes to resolve these singularities, based on recently obtained error estimates for the weakly singular

Differentiating Frictionally Locked Asperities From Kinematically Coupled Zones

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Seismogenic areas on plate‐boundary faults resist slipping until earthquakes begin. The delay in slip relative to plate motion, termed slip deficit, represents plate coupling as an interseismic proxy of seismic potential. However, when a part of a frictional interface sticks together (locked), the unlocked sliding surroundings are braked and ...

RAB5A Promotes Active Fluid Wetting by Reprogramming Breast Cancer Spheroid Mechanics

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 34, September 11, 2025.
RAB5A‐mediated unjamming enhances active wetting through distinct biomechanical processes: a) upregulation of specific integrin subunits, enhanced focal adhesions kinetics and activity; b) supracellular organization relying on nanoscale integrin clustering, and the formation of a stiff and collective actin cable; and c) softening of the spheroid core ...

Bring Your Own Smartphone: Student Activation in Mechanics Using the Sandwich Principle and Collective Smartphone Experiments

Proceedings in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, Volume 25, Issue 3, September 2025.
ABSTRACT The sandwich principle was applied to a basic mechanics lecture using smartphone experiments with alternating individual and collective learning phases. One experiment covered static friction and one the acceleration of cylinders. With the aim for a more learner‐centered lecture, the individual learning phases started with an application of ...

Normal Fault Interactions in Seismic Cycles and the Impact of Fault Network Geometry

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 4, April 2025.
Abstract Understanding the mechanisms behind the characteristics of earthquake cycles on normal faults is challenging due to their long recurrence times. Despite their moderate magnitude, normal faulting earthquakes can produce considerable damage.
