Numerical implementation of the coupled criterion: Matched asymptotic and full finite element approaches

A 3D finite element approach for the coupled numerical simulation of electrochemical systems and fluid flow

A comprehensive finite element method for three-dimensional simulations of stationary and transient electrochemical systems including all multi-ion transport mechanisms (convection, diffusion and migration) is presented. In addition, non-linear phenomenological electrode kinetics boundary conditions are accounted for. The governing equations form a set of coupled non-linear partial differential...

Dynamic Response of the Coupled Vehicle-Floating Slab Track System using Finite Element Method

In present study, a mathematical model of the vehicle–floating slab track (FST) interaction is established to investigate the coupled behaviour of vehicle–track system. The FST is modelled as the double Euler -Bernoulli beam including the rail and slab. The railway vehicle is simplified as a multi-rigid-body model. The wheel–rail interface is treated using a nonlinear Hertzian contact model, co...

A Super - Element Based on Finite Element Method for Latticed Columns Computational Aspect and Numerical Results

This paper presents a new super-element with twelve degrees of freedom for latticed columns. This elements is developed such that it behaves, with an acceptable approximation, in the same manner as a reference model does. The reference model is constructed by using many Solid elements. The cross section area, moments of inertia, shear coefficient and torsoinal rigidity of the developed new elem...
