The Response of Cranial Biomechanical Finite Element Models to Variations in Mesh Density

Correcting for variability in mesh geometry in Finite Element Models

Andy Adler1, and William R.B. Lionheart2 1Systems and Computer Engineering, Carleton University, Ottawa, Canada 2School of Mathematics, University of Manchester, UK Abstract: We show that variability in the finite element model (FEM) geometry in the EIT forward model can result in image artefacts in the reconstructed images. We explain these artefacts as the result of changes in the projection ...

Fast Finite Element Method Using Multi-Step Mesh Process

This paper introduces a new method for accelerating current sluggish FEM and improving memory demand in FEM problems with high node resolution or bulky structures. Like most of the numerical methods, FEM results to a matrix equation which normally has huge dimension. Breaking the main matrix equation into several smaller size matrices, the solving procedure can be accelerated. For implementing ...

from linguistics to literature: a linguistic approach to the study of linguistic deviations in the turkish divan of shahriar

chapter i provides an overview of structural linguistics and touches upon the saussurean dichotomies with the final goal of exploring their relevance to the stylistic studies of literature. to provide evidence for the singificance of the study, chapter ii deals with the controversial issue of linguistics and literature, and presents opposing views which, at the same time, have been central to t...

Simple Mesh Examples to Illustrate Specific Finite Element Mesh Requirements

Three simple mesh examples are presented to show that neither Delaunay nor strictly non-obtuse mesh elements are required for a finite element computation. Mesh requirements based on a recent condition given in literature are investigated to guarantee certain properties of the resulting stiffness matrix. The experiments are conducted using a general finite element and finite volume solver.
