Finite-Element Modelling of Biotransistors [PDF]
Current research efforts in biosensor design attempt to integrate biochemical assays with semiconductor substrates and microfluidic assemblies to realize fully integrated lab-on-chip devices. The DNA biotransistor (BioFET) is an example of such a device.

Finite element modelling of shear connection for steel-concrete composite girders [PDF]
The main objective of this thesis is to develop effective 3-dimensional finite element models to trace the behaviour of headed stud shear connectors in composite girders with solid slabs and precast hollow core slabs.

A finite element model of skin deformation. III. The finite element model [PDF]
AbstractSkin flap design has traditionally been based on geometric models which ignore the elastic properties of skin and its subcutaneous attachments. This study reviews the theoretical and experimental mechanics of skin and soft tissues (I) and proposes a mathematical model of skin deformation based on the finite element method (III).

Finite Element Modeling of Drillstrings [PDF]
A finite element model is presented for investigating dynamic behavior of drillstrings used in oil and gas wells. A Timoshenko beam element is used to model axial and transverse vibrations. The effect of axial load, gravity, the constraints due to stabilizers are considered.

Finite Element Modelling of Titanium Aluminides [PDF]
Hot forging is an important process for shaping and property control of lightweight titanium aluminide parts. Dynamic recrystallization and phase transformations play an essential role for the resulting grain size and accordingly the mechanical ...

Vehicle-bridge dynamic interaction using finite element modelling [PDF]
First investigations on the dynamic response of bridges due to moving loads were motivated by the collapse of the Chester railway bridge in the UK in the middle of the 19th century.

Using the scaled boundary finite element method to model 2D time-dependent geotechnical engineering problems [PDF]
The scaled boundary finite element method caters well for soil-structure interaction problems, but the formulation does not cater for the presence of changing pore pressures with time, body loads and tractions. A detailed formulation is presented in this

Distribution of material properties in finite element models of inhomogeneous elements of structures [PDF]
This paper discusses an approach to finite element modelling of structure elements considering material inhomogeneity. This approach is based on the functional dependence of mechanical properties on the spatial coordinates of finite elements.

Volumetric finite-element modelling of biological growth [PDF]
Differential growth is the driver of tissue morphogenesis in plants, and also plays a fundamental role in animal development. Although the contributions of growth to shape change have been captured through modelling tissue sheets or isotropic volumes, a ...
