We present a novel approach at simulating fluids in real-time by coupling the Lattice Boltzmann Method for Shallow Waters (LBMSW) with particle systems. The LBM can handle arbitrary underlying terrain and arbitrary fluid depth, which, in turn, allows us to extend it to track dry regions. The LBM is also two-way coupled with rigid bodies. The particle system adds more detail to the LBM; breaking...

An adjoint based technique is applied to a Shallow Water Model in order to estimate influence of the model’s parameters on the solution. Among parameters the bottom topography, initial conditions, boundary conditions on rigid boundaries, viscosity coefficients and the amplitude of the wind stress tension are considered. Their influence is analyzed from different points of view. Two configuratio...

this research examines the behavior of soil-reinforced piles and applied loads based on the analytical method and by using the numerical results of flac3d software for comparison with the analytical results. the analysis was based on a method called virtual retaining wall, the following into consideration: an imaginary retaining wall that passes the footing edge the bearing capacity of footing ...

The analytical solution for a transversely isotropic linear elastic layer bonded to a rigid foundation and indented by a rigid cylinder or sphere was developed. This solution follows procedures used by others to solve contact problems of linear anisotropic materials. The solution can be used to find the stress distribution and the displacement field in anisotropic layers like articular cartilag...

The paper deals with the shape and/or topology optimization for an elastic body in unilateral contact with a rigid foundation. The contact phenomenon with Tresca friction between the surfaces of the elastic or rigid bodies is described by the elliptic variational inequality. This optimization problem consists in finding such topology of the domain occupied by the body and/or the shape of its bo...
