Transient heat conduction analysis of 3D solids with fiber inclusions using the boundary element method

چکیده
A boundary element formulation is presented in this work for transient heat conduction analysis of threedimensional (3D) fiber-reinforced materials. The cylindrical-shaped fibers in a 3D matrix are idealized by a system of curvilinear line elements with a prescribed diameter. The variations in the temperature and flux fields in the circumferential direction are represented in terms of a trigonometric shape function together with a linear or quadratic variation in the longitudinal direction. This approach significantly reduces the modeling effort and the computing cost. The storage requirement for the convolution integrals is eliminated by adopting an accurate integration-based convolution algorithm for the surface of the hole and the fibers as well as a fast convolution algorithm for the outer boundary recently developed by the present authors. Numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the accuracy and applicability of the proposed method of analysis of fiber-reinforced materials. Copyright q 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

A truly meshless method formulation for analysis of non-Fourier heat conduction in solids
The non-Fourier effect in heat conduction is important in strong thermal environments and thermal shock problems. Generally, commercial FE codes are not available for analysis of non-Fourier heat conduction. In this study, a meshless formulation is presented for the analysis of the non-Fourier heat conduction in the materials. The formulation is based on the symmetric local weak form of the sec...
متن کاملA new method for the numerical evaluation of domain integrals in a 3D boundary element method for transient heat conduction
A new method is proposed for the numerical evaluation of domain integrals in a 3D boundary element method. These integrals arise in the solution of the transient heat conduction problems, using a time-dependent boundary integral equation method named as pseudo-initial condition method. As the time-dependent kernel in the domain integral is close to singular when small time step is used, a strai...
