Slope stability analysis: Barodesy vs linear elastic – perfectly plastic models [PDF]
The results of slope stability analysis are not unique. Different factors of safety are obtained investigating the same slope. The differences result from different constitutive models including different failure surfaces. In this contribution, different

A Comparison of Numerical and Analytical Methods in Dynamic Analysis of Embankment Dams (Case Study Balarud Embankment dam) [PDF]
Due to accuray of numerical methods and constitutive equations, a comparison of these methods with the classical methods of dynamic analysis of earthfill dams seems necessary. The results of Seed-Makdisi, Sarma and Ambrasys-Sarma analysis of a homogenous

Post-buckling behaviour of slender structures with a bi-linear bending moment-curvature relationship [PDF]
Certain classes of slender structures of complex cross-section or fabricated from specialised materials can exhibit a bi-linear bending moment–curvature relationship that has a strong influence on their global structural behaviour.

A Virtual Element Method for 2D linear elastic fracture analysis [PDF]
This paper presents the Virtual Element Method (VEM) for the modeling of crack propagation in 2D within the context of linear elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM). By exploiting the advantage of mesh flexibility in the VEM, we establish an adaptive mesh refinement strategy based on the superconvergent patch recovery for triangular, quadrilateral as well ...

Mixed Elastic Modeling of Multilayer Composite Plates by Using Dimension Reduction Approach [PDF]
In this paper, a mixed modeling approach for orthotropic laminated plates is developed. By adopting Hellinger-Reissner functional and dimension reduction method along the thickness, the governing equations were derived. By considering other theories i.e.

Elastic analysis of Shrink-fitted Thick FGM Cylinders Based on Linear Plane Elasticity Theory [PDF]
Nowadays, functionally graded materials (FGM) are widely used in many industrial, aerospace and military fields. On the other hand, the interest in the use of shrink-fitted assemblies is increasing for designing composite tubes, high-pressure vessels ...

A Numerical Study on an Oscillating Water Column Wave Energy Converter with Hyper-Elastic Material
A model different from the traditional WEC, known as the flexible wave energy converter (fWEC), is numerically modeled in this paper. The fWEC is believed to be more efficient and has a greater range of operation when compared with the conventionally ...

Energy-Minimizing Microstructures in Multiphase Elastic Solids [PDF]
This thesis concerns problems of microstructure and its macroscopic consequences in multiphase elastic solids, both single crystals and polycrystals. The elastic energy of a two-phase solid is a function of its microstructure.
