Discrete element method to simulate continuous material by using the cohesive beam model [PDF]
The mechanical behavior of materials is usually simulated by the continuous mechanics approach. However, simulation of non-continuous phenomena like multi fracturing is not well adapted to a continuous description.

Analysis of a finite volume element method for the Stokes problem [PDF]
In this paper we propose a stabilized conforming finite volume element method for the Stokes equations. On stating the convergence of the method, optimal a priori error estimates in different norms are obtained by establishing the adequate connection between the finite volume and stabilized finite element formulations. A superconvergence result is also

Nonconforming finite-element discretization of convex variational problems [PDF]
The Lavrentiev gap phenomenon is a well-known effect in the calculus of variations, related to singularities of minimizers. In its presence, conforming finite-element methods are incapable of reaching the energy minimum.

On the Finite Volume Element Method for Self-Adjoint Parabolic Integrodifferential Equations
Finite volume element schemes for non-self-adjoint parabolic integrodifferential equations are derived and stated. For the spatially discrete scheme, optimal-order error estimates in , , and , norms for are obtained.

Numerical simulation of a composite shell for underwater application using CFD and FEA [PDF]
In the present investigation, an attempt has been made to use fiber-reinforced composite material in place of metal for a shell used for underwater applications which is majorly subjected to hydro-static pressure.

A three-dimensional finite element model of cAMP signals
This paper presents a three-dimensional finite element model for cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) signaling. Governing equations for the synthesis, diffusion, and degradation of cAMP were numerically implemented using the finite element method ...

Finite element model creation and stability considerations of complex biological articulation : the human wrist joint [PDF]
The finite element method has been used with considerable success to simulate the behaviour of various joints such as the hip, knee and shoulder. It has had less impact on more complicated joints such as the wrist and the ankle.
