This paper presents a finite element-infinite element coupling approach for modeling a spherically symmetric transient flow problem in a porous medium of infinite extent. A finite element model is used to examine the flow potential distribution in a truncated bounded region close to the spherical cavity. In order to give an appropriate artificial boundary condition at the truncated boundary, a ...

This research develops thermo-elastic analysis of a functionally graded cylinder under thermo-mechanical loadings. Heat conduction equation in cylindrical coordinate system is solved. Thermal conductivity coefficient is graded along the radial direction. By considering a symmetric distribution of temperature, loading and boundary conditions, strain-displacement and stress-strain relations can b...

Variational formulations that can be employed in the approximation of boundary value problems involving essential and natural boundary conditions are presented in this paper. They are based on trial functions so chosen as to satisfy a priori the governing differential equations of the problem. The essential boundary conditions are used to construct the displacement approximation basis at finite...

In this paper, the boundary-based estimation of pressure distribution in the cardiovascular system is investigated using two dimensional flow images. The conventional methods of non-invasive estimation of pressure distribution in the cardiovascular flow domain use the differential form of governing equations. This study evaluates the advantages of using the integral form of the equations in the...
