Construction of generalized shape functions over arbitrary polytopes based on scaled boundary finite element method's solution of Poisson's equation

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering, Volume 124, Issue 17, Page 3603-3636, 15 September 2023., 2023
Summary A general technique to develop arbitrary‐sided polygonal elements based on the scaled boundary finite element method is presented. Shape functions are derived from the solution of the Poisson's equation in contrast to the well‐known Laplace shape functions that are only linearly complete.

Maximum Likelihood Coordinates

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, Volume 42, Issue 5, August 2023., 2023
Abstract Any point inside a d‐dimensional simplex can be expressed in a unique way as a convex combination of the simplex's vertices, and the coefficients of this combination are called the barycentric coordinates of the point. The idea of barycentric coordinates extends to general polytopes with n vertices, but they are no longer unique if n > d+1 ...

Numerical modeling of thermo‐mechanical failure processes in granitic rock with polygonal finite elements

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, Volume 45, Issue 13, Page 1900-1919, September 2021., 2021
Abstract This paper considers numerical modeling of intensive heating induced thermo‐mechanical failure processes in granitic rock. For this end, a numerical method based on polygonal finite elements and a damage‐plasticity model is developed. A staggered scheme is employed to solve the global thermo‐mechanical problem. The rock failure is described by

The DOE E3SM Coupled Model Version 1: Overview and Evaluation at Standard Resolution

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 11, Issue 7, Page 2089-2129, July 2019., 2019
Abstract This work documents the first version of the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) new Energy Exascale Earth System Model (E3SMv1). We focus on the standard resolution of the fully coupled physical model designed to address DOE mission‐relevant water cycle questions. Its components include atmosphere and land (110‐km grid spacing), ocean and sea ice

Fit Evaluation during Repetition Interaction in Garment Pattern Design

open access: yesMathematical Problems in Engineering, Volume 2019, Issue 1, 2019., 2019
We present a novel virtual try‐on solution for fitting evaluation and pattern modification to design various types of garment and speed up the garment design process. In the phase of fit evaluation, we propose a method for producing two‐dimensional (2D) color maps by comparing a 2D triangle mesh panel garment and a 3D triangle mesh garment, which can ...

Discontinuous Deformation Analysis Based on Wachspress Interpolation Function for Detailed Stress Distribution

open access: yesMathematical Problems in Engineering, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018
In the original discontinuous deformation analysis (DDA) method, the complete first‐order displacement function is used to describe block movement and deformation, which induce constant stress and strain throughout the block. To achieve a more detailed stress distribution, Wachspress interpolation displacement function is employed to express the ...

A Novel Virtual Node Hexahedral Element with Exact Integration and Octree Meshing

open access: yesMathematical Problems in Engineering, Volume 2016, Issue 1, 2016., 2016
The method presented in this work is a 3‐dimensional polyhedral finite element (3D PFEM) based on virtual node method. Novel virtual node polyhedral elements (termed as VPHE) are developed here, particularly virtual node hexahedral element (termed as VHE). Stiffness matrices of these polyhedral elements consist of simple polynomials.

A Novel Shape‐Free Plane Quadratic Polygonal Hybrid Stress‐Function Element

open access: yesMathematical Problems in Engineering, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015
A novel plane quadratic shape‐free hybrid stress‐function (HS‐F) polygonal element is developed by employing the principle of minimum complementary energy and the fundamental analytical solutions of the Airy stress function. Without construction of displacement interpolation function, the formulations of the new model are much simpler than those of the

Toric amplitudes and universal adjoints

open access: yesJournal of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 113, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract A toric amplitude is a rational function associated with a simplicial polyhedral fan. The definition is inspired by scattering amplitudes in particle physics. We prove algebraic properties of such amplitudes and study the geometry of their zero loci. These hypersurfaces play the role of Warren's adjoint via a dual volume interpretation.
