The idea behind the present method is similar to the cell-based smoothed 4-noded quadrilateral finite elements (CS-FEM-Q4). In CSFEM, the smoothing domains are created based on elements, and each element can be further subdivided into 1 or several smoothing cells. It is observed that: 1) The CS-FEM using a single smoothing cell can produce higher stress accuracy, but insufficient rank and poor displacement accuracy; 2) The CS-FEM using several smoothing cells has proper rank, good displacement accuracy, but lower stress accuracy, especially for nearly incompressible and bending dominant problems. We therefore propose 1) an extension of strain smoothing to 8-noded hexahedral elements and 2) an alternative CS-FEM form, which associates the single smoothing cell issue with multi-smoothing cell one via a stabilization technique. Several numerical examples are provided to show the reliability and accuracy of the present formulation.}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @article{TalebiSilaniBordasetal., author = {Talebi, Hossein and Silani, Mohammad and Bordas, St{\´e}phane Pierre Alain and Kerfriden, Pierre and Rabczuk, Timon}, title = {A computational library for multiscale modeling of material failure}, series = {Computational Mechanics}, journal = {Computational Mechanics}, abstract = {A computational library for multiscale modeling of material failure}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @article{YangBudarapuMahapatraetal., author = {Yang, Shih-Wei and Budarapu, Pattabhi Ramaiah and Mahapatra, D.R. and Bordas, St{\´e}phane Pierre Alain and Zi, Goangseup and Rabczuk, Timon}, title = {A Meshless Adaptive Multiscale Method for Fracture}, series = {Computational Materials Science}, journal = {Computational Materials Science}, pages = {382 -- 395}, abstract = {A Meshless Adaptive Multiscale Method for Fracture}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @article{NguyenXuanRabczukNguyenThanhetal., author = {Nguyen-Xuan, Hung and Rabczuk, Timon and Nguyen-Thanh, Nhon and Nguyen-Thoi, T. and Bordas, St{\´e}phane Pierre Alain}, title = {A node-based smoothed finite element method (NS-FEM) for analysis of Reissner-Mindlin plates}, series = {Computational Mechanics}, journal = {Computational Mechanics}, pages = {679 -- 701}, abstract = {A node-based smoothed finite element method (NS-FEM) for analysis of Reissner-Mindlin plates}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @article{KerfridenGouryRabczuketal., author = {Kerfriden, Pierre and Goury, O. and Rabczuk, Timon and Bordas, St{\´e}phane Pierre Alain}, title = {A partitioned model order reduction approach to rationalise computational expenses in nonlinear fracture mechanics}, series = {Computer Methods in Applied Mechanics and Engineering}, journal = {Computer Methods in Applied Mechanics and Engineering}, pages = {169 -- 188}, abstract = {A partitioned model order reduction approach to rationalise computational expenses in nonlinear fracture mechanics}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @article{BudarapuGracieBordasetal., author = {Budarapu, Pattabhi Ramaiah and Gracie, Robert and Bordas, St{\´e}phane Pierre Alain and Rabczuk, Timon}, title = {An adaptive multiscale method for quasi-static crack growth}, series = {Computational Mechanics}, journal = {Computational Mechanics}, doi = {10.1007/s00466-013-0952-6}, pages = {1129 -- 1148}, abstract = {This paper proposes an adaptive atomistic- continuum numerical method for quasi-static crack growth. The phantom node method is used to model the crack in the continuum region and a molecular statics model is used near the crack tip. To ensure self-consistency in the bulk, a virtual atom cluster is used to model the material of the coarse scale. The coupling between the coarse scale and fine scale is realized through ghost atoms. The ghost atom positions are interpolated from the coarse scale solution and enforced as boundary conditions on the fine scale. The fine scale region is adaptively enlarged as the crack propagates and the region behind the crack tip is adaptively coarsened. An energy criterion is used to detect the crack tip location. The triangular lattice in the fine scale region corresponds to the lattice structure of the (111) plane of an FCC crystal. The Lennard-Jones potential is used to model the atom-atom interactions. The method is implemented in two dimensions. The results are compared to pure atomistic simulations; they show excellent agreement.}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @article{NguyenXuanLiuBordasetal., author = {Nguyen-Xuan, Hung and Liu, G.R. and Bordas, St{\´e}phane Pierre Alain and Natarajan, S. and Rabczuk, Timon}, title = {An adaptive singular ES-FEM for mechanics problems with singular field of arbitrary order}, series = {Computer Methods in Applied Mechanics and Engineering}, journal = {Computer Methods in Applied Mechanics and Engineering}, pages = {252 -- 273}, abstract = {An adaptive singular ES-FEM for mechanics problems with singular field of arbitrary order}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @article{NguyenThanhRabczukNguyenXuanetal., author = {Nguyen-Thanh, Nhon and Rabczuk, Timon and Nguyen-Xuan, Hung and Bordas, St{\´e}phane Pierre Alain}, title = {An alternative alpha finite element method (A?FEM) free and forced vibration analysis of solids using triangular meshes}, series = {Journal of Computational and Applied Mathematics}, journal = {Journal of Computational and Applied Mathematics}, pages = {2112 -- 2135}, abstract = {An alternative alpha finite element method (A?FEM) free and forced vibration analysis of solids using triangular meshes}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @article{NguyenThanhRabczukNguyenXuanetal., author = {Nguyen-Thanh, Nhon and Rabczuk, Timon and Nguyen-Xuan, Hung and Bordas, St{\´e}phane Pierre Alain}, title = {An alternative alpha finite element method with stabilized discrete shear gap technique for analysis of Mindlin-Reissner plates}, series = {Finite Elements in Analysis \& Design}, journal = {Finite Elements in Analysis \& Design}, pages = {519 -- 535}, abstract = {An alternative alpha finite element method with stabilized discrete shear gap technique for analysis of Mindlin-Reissner plates}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @article{SimpsonBordasTrevelyanetal., author = {Simpson, R. and Bordas, St{\´e}phane Pierre Alain and Trevelyan, J. and Kerfriden, Pierre and Rabczuk, Timon}, title = {An Isogeometric Boundary Element Method for elastostatic analysis}, series = {Computer Methods in Applied Mechanics and Engineering}, journal = {Computer Methods in Applied Mechanics and Engineering}, doi = {10.1016/j.cma.2011.08.008}, abstract = {The concept of isogeometric analysis, where functions that are used to describe geometry in CAD software are used to approximate the unknown fields in numerical simulations, has received great attention in recent years. The method has the potential to have profound impact on engineering design, since the task of meshing, which in some cases can add significant overhead, has been circumvented. Much of the research effort has been focused on finite element implementations of the isogeometric concept, but at present, little has been seen on the application to the Boundary Element Method. The current paper proposes an Isogeometric Boundary Element Method (BEM), which we term IGABEM, applied to two-dimensional elastostatic problems using Non-Uniform Rational B-Splines (NURBS). We find it is a natural fit with the isogeometric concept since both the NURBS approximation and BEM deal with quantities entirely on the boundary. The method is verified against analytical solutions where it is seen that superior accuracies are achieved over a conventional quadratic isoparametric BEM implementation.}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} }
