A Novel Mixed‐Hybrid, Higher‐Order Accurate Formulation for Kirchhoff–Love Shells
Proceedings in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, Volume 26, Issue 2, June 2026.ABSTRACT This paper presents a novel mixed‐hybrid finite element formulation for Kirchhoff–Love shells, designed to enable the use of standard C0$C^0$‐continuous higher‐order Lagrange elements. This is possible by introducing the components of the moment tensor as a primary unknown alongside the displacement vector, circumventing the need for C1$C^1 ...

ISOGEOMETRIC BEAM ELEMENT EXTENDED FOR GRIDSHELL ANALYSIS
Acta Polytechnica CTU Proceedings, 2018 The design of gridshell structures is a complicated process, as the resulting shape of structure depends on initial undeformed grid geometry as well as on the history of boundary conditions used to form the final structure.

An Efficient Geometrically‐Exact Nonlinear Shell Formulation Based on Rodrigues Parameters
Proceedings in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, Volume 26, Issue 2, June 2026.ABSTRACT Thin‐walled structures are part of many engineering applications, as wind turbine blades, pressure vessels, and sheet metal products. A thin‐walled structure is characterized by one significantly smaller dimension compared to the others.

Stochastic Optimization of Non‐Convex Component Solution Spaces
International Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering, Volume 127, Issue 8, 30 April 2026.ABSTRACT In systems engineering, solution spaces provide a practical way to reconcile competing goals by working with sets of good designs instead of point‐based solutions. Earlier contributions, however, were restricted either by limiting the dimensionality per component or, more recently, by constraining these spaces to be convex, which can, in some ...

Optimal Control Applications and Methods, Volume 47, Issue 2, Page 570-588, March/April 2026.Implicit third‐order Peer two‐step methods that are superconvergent for variable stepsizes have the potential to significantly improve the efficiency of solving large‐scale ODE‐constrained optimal control problems. These include real‐world applications in medical treatment planning for prostate cancer, such as the design of effective three‐dose drug ...

Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 2, February 2026.The vascular bundle–inspired structure design involved developing a unit cell and rotating it by 45° for 2D/3D assembly. Unit cells varied in strut thickness (t) from 0.2 to 1.15 mm. Finite element model (FEM) analysis under quasi‐static compression yielded stress–strain curves and stress/strain maps.

International Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering, Volume 127, Issue 1, 15 January 2026.ABSTRACT The multiresolution finite wavelet domain method has been meticulously studied in numerous wave propagation simulations, showing excellent convergence properties and very fast computing times. The multiresolution procedure always starts with the coarse solution, and then finer solutions can be superimposed on the coarse solution until ...
