In current study, The Mesh-free method based on weak-form formulation coupled with the ultrasound imaging technique is developed. This problem consists in computing the deformation of an elastic non-homogenous phantom by numerical methods (both Mesh-free and Finite Element) and converge their results to the measured deformation by the ultrasound. The shape functions of Mesh-free are approximate...

normal 0 false false false en-us x-none ar-sa background: the aim of this study is to evaluate the outcome of an innovative, minimally invasive sling technique with autologous tissue in women with concomitant incontinence and anterior vaginal wall prolapse (avwp). materials and methods: fifty-six women with stress urinary incontinence (sui) or mixed urinary incontinence and avwp were randomly a...

in this paper, the effects of carbon nanotube (cnt) orientation and aggregation on the static behavior of functionally graded nanocomposite cylinders reinforced by cnts are investigated based on a mesh-free method. the used nanocomposites are made of the straight cnts that are embedded in an isotropic polymer as matrix. the straight cnts are oriented, randomly or aligned or local aggregated int...

Despite recent advances in geometric modelling, 3D mesh modelling still involves a considerable amount of manual labour by experts. In this paper, we introduce Mesh Draping: neural method for transferring existing structure from one shape to another. The drapes the source over target geometry and at same time seeks preserve carefully designed characteristics mesh. At its core, our deforms using...

this work reports the effect of nanotube aspect ratio and waviness index on stress and displacement distributions of functionally graded nanocomposite cylinders reinforced by wavy single walled carbon nanotubes based on a mesh-free method. the mechanical properties of these composites are assumed to be graded along radial direction and estimate by a micro mechanical model. in the mesh-free anal...

conclusions laparoscopic tapp inguinal hernia repair has longer operation time and more cost than the open technique. local wound complications were more prevalent in the open repair. the postoperative pain, the hospital stay, the scrotal-related complications as well as the recurrence rates were the same in the both groups. the laparoscopy can detect and treat other intra-abdominal pathologies...

In this paper, free vibration analysis of orthotropic functionally graded material (FGM) cylinders was carried out by a Mesh-Free method. In this analysis, moving least squares shape functions are used for approximation of displacement field in the weak form of equilibrium equation. Essential boundary conditions are imposed by transformation method. In this simulation, an axisymmetric model is ...
