Finite Element Modelling of Pultruded FRP Beam-to-Column Joints
This research addresses the critical gap in accurately modelling pultruded fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) beam-to-column joints, where previous studies largely ignored progressive damage mechanisms. A novel finite element framework is developed in ABAQUS,

Accuracy improvement for complex harmonic analysis modelling of a wound field synchronous generator
Complex harmonic analysis (CHA) provides a computationally efficient alternative to finite element analysis (FEA) for modelling multi-phase wound field synchronous machines. This paper presents three methods that could improve the accuracy of the CHA: by

Free vibrations and static analysis of functionally graded sandwich plates with three-dimensional finite elements [PDF]
A three-dimensional modelling of free vibrations and static response of functionally graded material (FGM) sandwich plates is presented. Natural frequencies and associated mode shapes as well as displacements and stresses are determined by using the ...

A Finite Element Approach to Modelling Fractal Ultrasonic Transducers [PDF]
Piezoelectric ultrasonic transducers usually employ composite structures to improve their transmission and reception sensitivities. The geometry of the composite is regular with one dominant length scale and, since these are resonant devices, this ...
