A Unified Topological Layer for Finite Element Space Discretization
نویسندگان
چکیده
A unified topological layer for mesh generation has been created to benefit from current development, to reuse existing, well tested and reliable methods, such as the Delaunay or the Advancing Front mesh generation approach, and to combine them to be able to interchange these methods, without taking a detour using file formats. In addition, by modularizing existing meshing kernels, this approach allows to not only have one meshing interface for arbitrary dimensions, but also to have the possibility at hand to independently combine different meshing strategies.

Study of Stone-wales Defect on Elastic Properties of Single-layer Graphene Sheets by an Atomistic based Finite Element Model
In this paper, an atomistic based finite element model is developed to investigate the influence of topological defects on mechanical properties of graphene. The general in-plane stiffness matrix of the hexagonal network structure of graphene is found. Effective elastic modulus of a carbon ring is determined from the equivalence of molecular potential energy related to stretch and angular defor...

In this article, vibration analysis of an Euler-Bernoulli beam resting on a Pasternak-type foundation is studied. The governing equation is solved by using a spectral finite element model (SFEM). The solution involves calculating wave and time responses of the beam. The Fast Fourier Transform function is used for temporal discretization of the governing partial differential equation into a se...
