[ 1 ] - Numerical Modeling of Railway Track Supporting System using Finite-Infinite and Thin Layer Elements
The present contribution deals with the numerical modeling of railway track-supporting systems-using coupled finite-infinite elements-to represent the near and distant field stress distribution, and also employing a thin layer interface element to account for the interfacial behavior between sleepers and ballast. To simulate the relative debonding, slipping and crushing at the contact area betw...
[ 2 ] - Seismic Response of the Kavar Concrete Face Rockfill Dam (RESEARCH NOTE)
This study deals with the dynamic behavior of the kavar concrete Abstract face rockfill damwhich is the first dam of this type to be const ructed in a highly active seismic prone area,situated in the state of Fars southern part of the Islamic Republic of Iran. The finite elementmethod was used as a tool to carry out this study. The finite element discretization was carriedout under plane strain...
[ 3 ] - Concepts and Application of Three Dimensional Infinite Elements to Soil Structure-Interaction Problems
This study is concerned with the formulation of three dimensional mapped infinite elements with 1/r and 1/ decay types. These infinite elements are coupled with conventional finite elements and their application to some problems of soil structure interaction are discussed. The effeciency of the coupled finite-infinite elements formulation with respect to computational effort, data preparation a...
[ 4 ] - Interactive Analysis of Space Frame Raft Soil System
This study presents a new approach for physical and material modeling of space frame-raft-soil system. The physical modeling consists of a modified Thimoshenko beam bending element with six degrees of freedom per node to model the beams and columns of the superstructure, a modified Mindlin's plate bending element with five degrees of freedom per node to represent the structural slabs and raft, ...
