Alternative Kelvin viscoelastic procedure for finite elements

New DKFT Elements for the Finite Element Analysis of Thin Viscoelastic Plates

  In this paper, finite element analysis of thin viscoelastic plates is performed by proposing new plate elements using complex Fourier shape functions. New discrete Kirchhoff Fourier Theory (DKFT) plate elements are constructed by the enrichment of quadratic function fields in a six-noded triangular plate element with complex Fourier radial basis functions. In order to illustrate the validity...

A coupling procedure for modeling acoustic problems using finite elements and boundary elements

Finite element (FEM) and boundary element (BEM) methods have been used for a long time for the numerical simulation of acoustic problems. The development presented in this paper deals with a general procedure for coupling acoustic finite elements with acoustic boundary elements in order to solve efficiently acoustic problems involving non homogeneous fluids. Emphasis is made on problems where f...

Alternative Subcell Discretisations for Viscoelastic Flow: Part I Alternative Subcell Discretisations for Viscoelastic Flow: Part I

This study is concerned with the investigation of the associated properties of subcell discretisations for viscoelastic flows, where aspects of compatibility of solution function spaces are paramount. We introduce one new scheme, through a subcell finite element approximation fe(sc), and compare and contrast this against two precursor schemes – one with finite element discretisation in common, ...

buckling of viscoelastic composite plates using the finite strip method

در سال های اخیر، تقاضای استفاده از تئوری خطی ویسکوالاستیسیته بیشتر شده است. با افزایش استفاده از کامپوزیت های پیشرفته در صنایع هوایی و همچنین استفاده روزافزون از مواد پلیمری، اهمیت روش های دقیق طراحی و تحلیل چنین ساختارهایی بیشتر شده است. این مواد جدید از خودشان رفتارهای مکانیکی ارائه می دهند که با تئوری های الاستیسیته و ویسکوزیته، نمی توان آن ها را توصیف کرد. این مواد، خواص ویسکوالاستیک دارند....
