Rate Sensitive Continuum Damage Models and Mesh Dependence in Finite Element Analyses [PDF]
The experiences from orthogonal machining simulations show that the Johnson-Cook (JC) dynamic failure model exhibits significant element size dependence. Such mesh dependence is a direct consequence of the utilization of local damage models.

Multi-dimensional finite element analyses of OECD lower head failure tests
For severe accident assessment of reactor pressure vessel (RPV), it is important to develop an accurate model that can predict transient thermo-mechanical behavior of the RPV lower head under the given condition. The present study revisits the lower head

Adaptive mesh refinements for analyses of 2D linear elasticity problems using the Kriging-based finite element method [PDF]
Finite element analyses of irregular structures require adaptive mesh refinement to achieve more accurate results in an efficient manner. This is also true for a non-conventional finite element method with Kriging interpolation, called the Kriging-based ...

Finite element analyses of slope stability problems using non-associated plasticity
In recent years, finite element analyses have increasingly been utilized for slope stability problems. In comparison to limit equilibrium methods, numerical analyses do not require any definition of the failure mechanism a priori and enable the ...
