Unilateral contact applications using FEM software

M. Stavroulaki, G. Stavroulakis (2002)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

Nonsmooth analysis, inequality constrained optimization and variational inequalities are involved in the modelling of unilateral contact problems. The corresponding theoretical and algorithmic tools, which are part of the area known as nonsmooth mechanics, are by no means classical. In general purpose software some of these tools (perhaps in a simplified way) are currently available. Two engineering applications, a rubber-coated roller contact problem and a masonry wall, solved with...

Fracture mechanics as applied to plain and reinforced concrete with particular reference to scaling of experimental data

Similarity:

Whereas in elasticity and plasticity geometrically similar structures behave in the same way, when strain-softening and strain-localization are taken into account the structural behaviour ranges from ductile to brittle merely by increasing size and keeping material properties and geometrical shape unchanged. The size-scale of plain and reinforced concrete elements has often revealed a fundamental influence on the global structural behaviour. This has been theoretically predicted and...

Flaw identification in elastic solids: theory and experiments.

Extracta Mathematicae

Similarity:

In this work the problem of identificating flaws or voids in elastic solids is addressed both from a theoretical and an experimental point of view. Following a so called inverse procedure, which is based on appropriately devised experiments and a particular bounding of the strain energy, a gap functional for flaw identification is proposed.
