Using the highly recommended numerical techniques, a finite element computer code is developed to analyse the steady incompressible, laminar and turbulent flows in 2-D domains with complex geometry. The Petrov-Galerkin finite element formulation is adopted to avoid numerical oscillations. Turbulence is modeled using the two equation k-ω model. The discretized equations are written in the form o...

Using the Frobenius series method (FSM), an analytical solution is developed to obtain mechanical stresses of thick spherical pressure vessels made of functionally graded materials (FGMs). The cylinder pressure vessel is subjected to uniform internal pressure. The modulus of elasticity is graded along the radial direction according to power functions of the radial direction. It is assumed that ...

The assessment of the influence of the work-hardening of material on the optimum die profile and drawing force  in rod drawing process is the main objective of the present paper. The upper bound solution, based on the assumption of perfect plasticity, has been extended to consider the work-hardening of the material during the rod drawing process through curved dies. Analytical results of drawin...

In this paper, rod drawing process of strain-hardening materials is investigated by analytical, numerical and experimental methods. The classic upper bound solution, based on the assumption of perfect plasticity, has been extended to consider the work-hardening of the material during the drawing process. For a given process conditions and mechanical properties of the rod material, the power ter...

a non-linear finite element model could be a useful tool in the development of a method of predicting soil pressure-sinkage behaviour, and can be used to investigate and analyze soil compaction. this study was undertaken to emphasize that the finite element method (fem) is a proper technique to model soil pressure-sinkage behaviour. for this purpose, the finite element method was used to model ...

A finite element method with numerical quadrature is considered for the solution of a class of second-order quasilinear elliptic problems of nonmonotone type. Optimal a priori error estimates for the H and the L norms are derived. The uniqueness of the finite element solution is established for a sufficiently fine mesh. Application to numerical homogenization methods is considered.

Stability of foundations near slopes is one of the important and complicated problems in geotechnical engineering, which has been investigated by various methods such as limit equilibrium, limit analysis, slip-line, finite element and discrete element. The complexity of this problem is resulted from the combination of two probable failures: foundation failure and overall slope failure. The curr...

In this article, we introduced an iterative scheme for finding a common element of the set of fixed points of a multi-valued hemicontractive-type mapping, the set of common solutions of a finite family of split equilibrium problems and the set of common solutions of a finite family of variational inequality problems in real Hilbert spaces. Moreover, the sequence generated by the proposed algori...
