Experimental Modal Analysis‐Driven Gaussian Process Regression Modeling of Rectangular Steel Beams With Various Hole Geometries

International Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, Volume 6, Issue 2, Page 327-343, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Understanding the dynamic behavior of structural components is crucial for optimizing performance and ensuring structural integrity. This study presents a new method that combines a systematic experimental investigation of four distinct hole geometries (circular, square, compact rectangular, and long rectangular) with varying hole counts, all ...

Mixed Integration Scheme for Embedded Discontinuous Interfaces by Extended Finite Element Method

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022
The extended Finite Element Method (XFEM) is derived from the traditional finite element method for discontinuous problems. It can simulate the behavior of cracks, which significantly improves the ability of finite element methods to simulate ...

FEM‐Peridynamic Modelling of Supershear Earthquake Ruptures in Dry and Fluid‐Saturated Media

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Since ground shaking increases with rupture speed during earthquakes, the velocity transition from sub‐Rayleigh to supershear in mode II fracture is crucial for the propagation of seismic ruptures and associated strong ground motions. We employ a newly conceived 2‐dimensional hybrid Finite Element Method and Peridynamic (FEM/PD‐2D) model to ...

The influence of temperature and thickness on the fracture behavior of P265GH material, using the J-integral method

Engineering and Applied Science Research, 2021
In this work we exanimate, in elastoplastic case, the crack growth in P265GH material, we use eXtended finite element method (XFEM) in the Cast3m code. Crack growth in the 3D CT pipe sampleis modeled using stress intensity factor and J integral.

Numerical Modeling of Hydrogen‐Assisted Cracking With Phase Field Regularized Cohesive Zone Model and Penalty‐Based Moving Hydrogen Boundary Condition

Fatigue &Fracture of Engineering Materials &Structures, Volume 49, Issue 5, Page 1824-1844, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The degradation of metallic materials due to hydrogen embrittlement (HE) poses critical challenges for structural reliability. Phase‐field models offer an energy‐based approach that does not require predefined crack paths and automatically determines crack initiation, growth, and coalescence.

Hydraulic fracturing simulation of soils based on XFEM

Yantu gongcheng xuebao, 2020
Hydraulic fracture will have a serious negative impact on the safety of core rockfill dams. Macroscopically, the hydraulic fracture of soils can be regarded as the failure process of further development of local cracks (weak surfaces) under the action of

Cut Finite Element 3D Acoustic Shape Optimization of a Compression Driver Taking Viscothermal Losses Into Account

International Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering, Volume 127, Issue 4, 28 February 2026.
ABSTRACT Wave propagation effects such as resonance and interference effects complicate the design of many acoustic devices, particularly when the dimensions of the device are in the order of the operating wavelength. At the same time, these complications also offer an opportunity for numerical optimization schemes to outperform designs achieved using ...
