Multigrid Methods for Hellan-Herrmann-Johnson Mixed Method of Kirchhoff Plate Bending Problems
A V-cycle multigrid method for the Hellan-Herrmann-Johnson (HHJ) discretization of the Kirchhoff plate bending problems is developed in this paper. It is shown that the contraction number of the V-cycle multigrid HHJ mixed method is bounded away from one

Comparative muscle anatomy of the anuran pelvis and hindlimb in relation to locomotor mode
Scientists at UCL and the Royal Veterinary College have digitally dissected the musculoskeletal anatomy of the pelvis and hindlimbs of 30 frog species using contrast‐enhanced microCT scanning, forming the largest digital anatomical dataset in any vertebrate group to date.

Finite element analysis with deformed shape constraints generated by laser‐scanned point clouds
Abstract This article proposes a computational method for finite element analysis with deformed shape constraints for analyzing constructed structures to account for deformations that occur before shape measurement by a terrestrial laser scanner (TLS).

Improved FEM for distribution network cables rating using multiple forgetting factors least-square
Complicated surroundings of distribution network cables make it difficult to compute maximum ampacity according to actual operations. However, single numerical method for cable rating causes complex computation load which is not suitable for ampacity ...

Nonlinear adjustments between exchange rates and external eeserves in Nigeria: A threshold cointegration analysis [PDF]
This study investigates the long run relationship between exchange rate andexternal reserves in Nigeria during 1990Q1 - 2012Q4. We confirm theexistence of threshold cointegration between the variables in Nigeria, asagainst linear cointegration ...

Abstract Phase‐field methods are attractive for simulating the mechanical failure of geometrically complex porous microstructures described by 2D/3D x‐ray μ$$ \mu $$CT images in subsurface (e.g., CO 2$$ {}_2 $$ storage) and manufacturing (e.g., Li‐ion battery) applications.

Influence of soil plasticity models on offshore wind turbine response
Abstract While recent numerical modelling advances have enabled robust simulation of foundation hysteresis behaviour, uptake of these models has been limited in the offshore wind industry. This is partially due to modelling complexity and the unknown influence of including such soil constitutive models within a design philosophy.

Shape sensing with iFEM on a type IV pressure vessel based on experimental measurements
The service life of a ship depends on its structural integrity, which can be undermined through time via different loading conditions. The incorporation of a Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) system could enhance the safety of the vessel because ...
