Geometric characterization and simulation of planar layered elastomeric fibrous biomaterials.
Many important biomaterials are composed of multiple layers of networked fibers. While there is a growing interest in modeling and simulation of the mechanical response of these biomaterials, a theoretical foundation for such simulations has yet to be firmly established. Moreover, correctly identifying and matching key geometric features is a critically important first step for performing relia...
متن کاملA NEW APPROACH BASED ON FINITE ELEMENT MODEL UPDATING FOR STRUCTURAL DAMAGE IDENTIFICATION
In this study, the finite element model updating was simulated by reducing the stiffness of the members. Due to lack of access to the experimental results, the data obtained from an analytical model were used in the proposed structural damage scenarios. The updating parameters for the studied structures were defined as a reduction coefficient applied to the stiffness of the members. Parameter v...
متن کاملFrom Wave Mechanics to Matrix Mechanics: The Finite Element Method
There are only a few analytic solutions available for this partial differential equation. Schrödinger found all of the most useful ones in his first paper on Quantum Mechanics: the Coulomb potential and the harmonic oscillator potential. He published the solution to the nonrelativistic Coulomb problem in his first Wave Mechanics paper but solved the relativistic problem six months earlier. He a...
متن کاملStructural Topology Optimization Using Finite Element Based Level Set Method Structural Topology Optimization Using Finite Element Based Level Set Method
A finite element based level set method is proposed for structural topology optimization. Because both the level set equation and the reinitialization equation are advection dominated partial differential equations, the standard Galerkin finite element method may produce oscillating results. In this paper, both equations are solved using a streamline diffusion finite element method (SDFEM). The...
متن کاملElastomeric Recombinant Protein-based Biomaterials.
Elastomeric protein-based biomaterials, produced from elastin derivatives, are widely investigated as promising tissue engineering scaffolds due to their remarkable properties including substantial extensibility, long-term stability, self-assembly, high resilience upon stretching, low energy loss, and excellent biological activity. These elastomers are processed from different sources of solubl...
