This paper investigates recent progress on a-posteriori error analysis for the high-order finite element method(FEM). The paper will discuss the differences between a-posteriori error estimations for lower-order FEM and those for high-order FEM, and analyzes the technical and methodological differences on a-posteriori error estimations for high-order FEM in one dimension and in high dimensions....

in the present research, the effects of delamination size and location on vibration characteristics of laminated composite beams are investigated both analytically and numerically. in the analytical method, the delaminated beam is modeled as four interconnected euler–bernoulli beams and the constrained and free mode models are both simulated. the differential stretching and the bending-extensio...

In Electro- (EEG) and Magnetoencephalography (MEG), one important requirement of source reconstruction is the forward model. The continuous Galerkin finite element method (CG-FEM) has become one of the dominant approaches for solving the forward problem over the last decades. Recently, a discontinuous Galerkin FEM (DG-FEM) EEG forward approach has been proposed as an alternative to CG-FEM (Engw...

it is well-known that dam-reservoir interaction has significant effects on the response of dams to the earthquakes. this phenomenon should be considered more exactly in the seismic design of dams with a rational and reliable dynamic analysis method. in this research, seismic analysis of the dam-reservoir is studied as a wave propagation problem by using legendre spectral element method (sem). t...

shuctures with one or m r e piezoelechic layers included, v-ng along the plate, and is valid also for higher harmonics. It includes shear deformation, effects of residual shpss in the plate, and bending effects at height differences between plate elements. The analysis is compared both to expenmnls on a low frequency (140 kHz) PZT brass shucture, and to FEM analysis. FEM is also used to dete...

In this paper, a time stepping 2D and 3D FEM is performed for modeling and analysis interior rotor DFIG .The finite element method currently represents the state-of-the-art in the numerical magnetic field computation relating to electrical machines. FEM is a numerical method to solve the partial differential equations (PDE) that expresses the physical quantities of interest, in this case Maxwel...

In this paper, it was firstly confirmed by FEM analysis of ground during earthquake that two kinds of techniques using both displacements of hollow and natural grounds in seismic deformation method were equivalent. Then, the authors were proposed a criterion for evaluating applicability of seismic deformation method, based on comparison of calculated results of both the above-mentioned techniqu...

CEMTool is a command style design and analyzing package for scientific and technological algorithm and a matrix based computation language. In this paper, we present new 2D & 3D finite element method (FEM) packages for CEMTool. We discuss the detailed structures and the important features of pre-processor, solver, and post-processor of CEMTool 2D & 3D FEM packages. In contrast to the existing M...
