A Cell-Based Smoothed XFEM for Fracture in Piezoelectric Materials
This paper presents a cell-based smoothed extended finite element method (CS-XFEM) to analyze fractures in piezoelectric materials. The method, which combines the cell-based smoothed finite element method (CS-FEM) and the extended finite element method ...

Membrane composition and thermodynamic identity as boundaries of life for synthetic cell research
What makes a cell a cell? The boundary of a living cell is not just a wall. Read as a Markov blanket, the membrane separates internal from external states, generating identity and non‐equilibrium order. Can this identity be rebuilt from scratch in a synthetic cell?

ANALYSIS THE FORMULA OF STRESS INTENSITY FACTORS FOR THE COMPACT TENSION SHEAR TEST
The Compact Tension Shear( CTS) specimen proposed by Richard is a commonly test type used in mixed ModeI/II loading. The formula of stress intensity factors( SIFs) for the CTS test has already given by relevant literature.

ABSTRACT Objective Treatment of disorders of consciousness (DoC) remains a major clinical challenge, and noninvasive, targeted modulation of deep brain structures has emerged as a promising therapeutic strategy. We aimed to evaluate the feasibility/safety and preliminary effects of thalamic temporal interference stimulation (TIS) targeting centromedian‐

A Q‐Learning Algorithm to Solve the Two‐Player Zero‐Sum Game Problem for Nonlinear Systems
A Q‐learning algorithm to solve the two‐player zero‐sum game problem for nonlinear systems. ABSTRACT This paper deals with the two‐player zero‐sum game problem, which is a bounded L2$$ {L}_2 $$‐gain robust control problem. Finding an analytical solution to the complex Hamilton‐Jacobi‐Issacs (HJI) equation is a challenging task.

Fretting fatigue life prediction using the extended finite element method [PDF]
In this work, fretting fatigue tests available in the literature are modeled using the extended finite element method (XFEM). The aim is to numerically evaluate the stress intensity factors (SIFs) for cracks of different lengths emanating at the end of ...

Fracture assessment of post-buckled offshore pipeline using eXtended finite element method
Shallowly buried offshore pipelines operating under high pressure and high-temperature conditions are susceptible to upheaval buckling. Such pipelines may contain pre-existing defects, including fabrication- or operation-induced cracks.
