Affinification: A Fine Approximation of Deformations
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract We introduce affinification, a novel method for accelerating physics‐based animation of elastic solids. During a time‐dependent simulation, our method automatically partitions the space into affine and elastic regions depending on the deformation.

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 3, August 2026.This study quantifies the influence of multidimensional effects on site response in the Wellington region of New Zealand by comparing results from different simulation approaches. Response‐spectral amplification functions from 1D and 2D site response analyses are compared to quantify the magnitude and spatial distribution of multidimensional effects ...

Nonlinear Response‐History Analyses of Masonry and Mixed Structures With HybriDFEM
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 8, Page 1694-1709, 10 July 2026.ABSTRACT The hybrid discrete‐finite element (HybriDFEM) method, previously developed to perform static and modal analysis in discrete and coupled discrete‐finite element models, is extended to nonlinear response‐history analyses. The equations of motion for the HybriDFEM model are solved through various numerical time‐integration schemes, both explicit

Finite Element Modelling of Rocking and Hybrid Precast Walls under Seismic Loading
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 9, Page 1924-1941, 25 July 2026.ABSTRACT In recent years, self‐centring systems have received considerable research interest in the seismic design of precast concrete structures for their ability to limit damage and satisfy resilience requirements. Rocking and hybrid structural walls, characterised by the formation of a single gap at the wall–foundation interface, mitigate damage by ...

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 9, Page 1947-1967, 25 July 2026.ABSTRACT Iterative solvers are advantageous for handling nonlinear structural analysis problems. The iterative solvers often require updating the stiffness matrix, which limits their application in static and pseudo‐dynamic hybrid simulations because: (1) updating the stiffness matrix of a system involving a physical specimen is challenging; (2 ...

Calculating dispersion relations for waveguide immersed in perfect fluid
Mathematical Modelling and Analysis, 2018 Conventional finite element method (FEM) is capable of obtaining wave solutions, but large discretized structures at high frequency require high computational resources, the computational domain can be reduced by combining FEM with analytical assumption ...

ALERA‐V Version 1.0: An Objective Analysis Dataset of the Venus Atmosphere
Geoscience Data Journal, Volume 13, Issue 3, July 2026.Using observations from the Venus orbiter Akatsuki, we present the first objective analysis dataset of the Venus atmosphere. ALERA‐V, generated with the ALEDAS‐V system using the LETKF, is expected to support studies of atmospheric dynamics and the planning of future satellite missions.
