Singular Perturbations For Heart Image Segmentation Tracking
In this note we give a result of convergence when time goes to infinity for a quasi static linear elastic model, the elastic tensor of which vanishes at infinity. This method is applied to segmentation of medical images, and improves the 'elastic deformable template' model introduced previously.

Slab analogy in theory and practice of conforming equilibrium stress models for finite element analysis of plane elastostatics
The fundamental problem in the application of the principle of complementary energy is the construction of suitable subsets that approximate the set of all statically admissible fields satisfying both the conditions of equilibrium inside the body and the static boundary conditions. The notion “slab analogy” is motivated and the interface conditions for the Airy stress function are established at the contact of two domains. Some spaces of types of conforming equilibrium stress elements, which can...

Some methods for calculating stiffness properties of periodic structures
We present a general numerical method for calculating effective elastic properties of periodic structures based on the homogenization method. Some concrete numerical examples are presented.
Some new technics regarding the parallelisation of ZéBuLoN, an object oriented finite element code for structural mechanics
A finite element code, called ZéBuLoN was parallelised some years ago. This code is entirely written using an object oriented framework (C++ is the support language). The aim of this paper is to present some problems which arose during the parallelization, and some innovative solutions. Especially, a new concept of message passing is presented which allows to take into account SMP machines while still using the parallel virtual machine abstraction.

Special exact curved finite elements
Special exact curved finite elements useful for solving contact problems of the second order in domains boundaries of which consist of a finite number of circular ares and a finite number of line segments are introduced and the interpolation estimates are proved.
Stability of finite element mixed interpolations for contact problems
We consider the formulation of contact problems using a Lagrange multiplier to enforce the contact no-penetration constraint. The finite element discretization of the formulation must satisfy stability conditions which include an inf-sup condition. To identify which finite element interpolations in the contact constraint lead to stable (and optimal) numerical solutions we focus on the finite element discretization and solution of a «simple» model problem. While a simple problem to avoid the need...
Stability of microstructure for tetragonal to monoclinic martensitic transformations
Stability of microstructure for tetragonal to monoclinic martensitic transformations
We give an analysis of the stability and uniqueness of the simply laminated microstructure for all three tetragonal to monoclinic martensitic transformations. The energy density for tetragonal to monoclinic transformations has four rotationally invariant wells since the transformation has four variants. One of these tetragonal to monoclinic martensitic transformations corresponds to the shearing of the rectangular side, one corresponds to the shearing of the square base, and one corresponds to...

Sulla nozione di stato per materiali viscoelastici di tipo «rate»
Si considera un materiale viscoelastico lineare in cui la funzione di rilassamento è la somma di esponenziali. Lo stato di questi sistemi non è necessariamente assegnato dalla storia passata di , ma è sufficiente fornire il valore iniziale del tensore di deformazione , del tensore degli sforzi e delle sue derivate. Infine per questi materiali abbiamo ottenuto una espressione dell'energia libera come una funzione dello stato di dimensione finita .
