Abstract A two‐phase velocity‐pressure stabilized formulation is proposed for the numerical analysis of mechanized excavations in partially saturated soft soils using the Particle Finite Element Method (PFEM). The fully coupled formulation is based on the theory of porous media in association with the Soil Water Characteristic Curve and the porosity ...

3D Numerical Simulation of Landslides for the Full High Waste Dump Using SPH Method
Waste dump that is generally composed of a large number of loose geotechnical materials is prone to landslides under external loads. In this work, the smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) method combined with the Mohr–Coulomb model is used to study the dynamic characteristics of the landslides that occurred in the waste dump during the failure process.

Using the particle finite element method for predicting edge-cracking in complex phase high-strength steel sheets [PDF]
Advanced High-strength steel (AHSS) sheets enable lightweight designs by reducing material thickness while retaining necessary structural properties. However, their high strength often complicates forming operations and increases vulnerability to defects

A nodal-integration based particle finite element method (N-PFEM) to model cliff recession
Abstract Cliff recession poses a significant threat to the built environment, transportation infrastructure and land use. In this paper, a novel computational framework called the Nodal-integration based Particle Finite Element Method (N-PFEM) is developed for modelling the cliff recession resulting from weathering-induced landslides.

Interaction between an elastic structure and free-surface flows: experimental versus numerical comparisons using the PFEM. [PDF]
The paper aims to introduce new fluid–structure interaction (FSI) tests to compare experimental results with numerical ones. The examples have been chosen for a particular case for which experimental results are not much reported. This is the case of FSI

Validation of the particle finite element method (PFEM) for simulation of free surface flows [PDF]
PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to evaluate the possibilities of the particle finite element method for simulation of free surface flows.Design/methodology/approachA numerical simulation of a number of examples for which experimental data are available is performed. The simulations are run using the same scale as the experiment in order to minimize
