Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) solves an inverse problem to estimate the conductivity distribution within a body from electrical simulation and measurements at the body surface, where the inverse problem is based on a solution of Laplace's equation in the body. Most commonly, a finite element model (FEM) is used, largely because of its ability to describe irregular body shapes. In this p...

Purpose This paper aims to propose an analytical thermal three-dimensional model that allows efficient evaluation of the effect laser-scanning path. During manufacturing by laser powder bed fusion (LPBF), path influences thermo-mechanical behavior parts. Therefore, it is necessary validate generation considering induced this process improve quality Design/methodology/approach The proposed model...

We present a Finite Element Method (FEM) implementation for cloth simulation on the GPU. The advantages of FEM are twofold: the realism of cloth simulations using this method is improved compared with other methods like the widely used mass-spring one, and it has a wider application rank because it can be used for general triangulated cloth meshes. We are able to detect collisions between cloth...

1. Background/Problem In real-time surgery simulation and planning, the Finite Element Method (FEM) is often used to simulate small and large deformation of human tissue for applications such as laparoscopy training [4], needle insertion planning [1], and image registration [2]. In using FEM, assumptions must be made about material properties and the scale of deformation of human tissues in and...

An overall objective of energy efficiency in the built environment is to improve building and systems performances in terms of durability, comfort and economics. In order to predict, improve and meet a certain set of performance requirements related to the indoor climate of buildings and the associated energy demand, building energy simulation (BES) tools are indispensable. Due to the rapid dev...

Kubina, VŠB – Technical University of Ostrava, Faculty of Metallurgy and Materials Engineering, Ostrava, Czech Republic The application of finite element simulation to the problem of roll pass design for round bar rolling is considered. Two roll p...

Sheet metal extrusion is a metal forming process in which the movement of a punch penetrates a sheet metal surface and it flows through a die orifice; the extruded parts can be deflected to have an extrusion cavity and protrusion on the opposite side. Therefore, this process results in a narrow region of highly localized plastic deformation due to the formation and microstructure effect on the ...
