The formulation of the problem includes: a condition of equilibrium flow of a deformation process in the reference configuration; an equation of a coupled heat conductivity in a variational form, in which an influence of deformation characteristics of a process on the temperature field is taken into account; tensor-linear constitutive relations for a hypoelastic material; kinematic and evolutional relations; initial and boundary conditions. Based on this formulation several axisymmetric isothermal and coupled problems of finite deformations of isotropic and anisotropic bodies are solved. The solution of coupled thermomechanical problems for a hollow cylinder in case of finite deformation showed an essential influence of coupling on distribution of temperature, stresses and strains. The obtained solutions show the development of stressstrain state and temperature changing in axisymmetric bodies in the case of finite deformations.}, subject = {Angewandte Informatik}, language = {en} } @article{LahmerIlgLerch, author = {Lahmer, Tom and Ilg, J. and Lerch, Reinhard}, title = {Variance-based sensitivity analyses of piezoelectric models}, series = {Computer Modeling in Engineering \& Sciences}, journal = {Computer Modeling in Engineering \& Sciences}, pages = {105 -- 126}, abstract = {Variance-based sensitivity analyses of piezoelectric models}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{MacedoBentaPicadoSantos, author = {Macedo, Joaquim Miguel and Benta, Agostinho and Picado-Santos, Luis}, title = {USE OF MICROSIMULATION IN THE ADAPTATION TO PORTUGAL OF THE HCM 2000 METHODOLOGY FOR BASIC FREEWAY SEGMENTS}, series = {Digital Proceedings, International Conference on the Applications of Computer Science and Mathematics in Architecture and Civil Engineering : July 20 - 22 2015, Bauhaus-University Weimar}, booktitle = {Digital Proceedings, International Conference on the Applications of Computer Science and Mathematics in Architecture and Civil Engineering : July 20 - 22 2015, Bauhaus-University Weimar}, editor = {G{\"u}rlebeck, Klaus and Lahmer, Tom}, organization = {Bauhaus-Universit{\"a}t Weimar}, issn = {1611-4086}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.2812}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20170314-28122}, pages = {7}, abstract = {Portugal is one of the European countries with higher spatial and population freeway network coverage. The sharp growth of this network in the last years instigates the use of methods of analysis and the evaluation of their quality of service in terms of the traffic performance, typically performed through internationally accepted methodologies, namely that presented in the Highway Capacity Manual (HCM). Lately, the use of microscopic traffic simulation models has been increasingly widespread. These models simulate the individual movement of the vehicles, allowing to perform traffic analysis. The main target of this study was to verify the possibility of using microsimulation as an auxiliary tool in the adaptation of the methodology by HCM 2000 to Portugal. For this purpose, were used the microscopic simulators AIMSUN and VISSIM for the simulation of the traffic circulation in the A5 Portuguese freeway. The results allowed the analysis of the influence of the main geometric and traffic factors involved in the methodology by HCM 2000. In conclusion, the study presents the main advantages and limitations of the microsimulators AIMSUN and VISSIM in modelling the traffic circulation in Portuguese freeways. The main limitation is that these microsimulators are not able to simulate explicitly some of the factors considered in the HCM 2000 methodology, which invalidates their direct use as a tool in the quantification of those effects and, consequently, makes the direct adaptation of this methodology to Portugal impracticable.}, subject = {Angewandte Informatik}, language = {en} } @article{VuBacRafieeZhuangetal., author = {Vu-Bac, N. and Rafiee, Roham and Zhuang, Xiaoying and Lahmer, Tom and Rabczuk, Timon}, title = {Uncertainty quantification for multiscale modeling of polymer nanocomposites with correlated parameters}, series = {Composites Part B: Engineering}, journal = {Composites Part B: Engineering}, pages = {446 -- 464}, abstract = {Uncertainty quantification for multiscale modeling of polymer nanocomposites with correlated parameters}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{KerstenRodehorst, author = {Kersten, Jens and Rodehorst, Volker}, title = {TOWARDS STEREO VISION- AND LASER SCANNER-BASED UAS POSE ESTIMATION}, series = {Digital Proceedings, International Conference on the Applications of Computer Science and Mathematics in Architecture and Civil Engineering : July 20 - 22 2015, Bauhaus-University Weimar}, booktitle = {Digital Proceedings, International Conference on the Applications of Computer Science and Mathematics in Architecture and Civil Engineering : July 20 - 22 2015, Bauhaus-University Weimar}, editor = {G{\"u}rlebeck, Klaus and Lahmer, Tom}, organization = {Bauhaus-Universit{\"a}t Weimar}, issn = {1611-4086}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.2807}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20170314-28072}, pages = {7}, abstract = {A central issue for the autonomous navigation of mobile robots is to map unknown environments while simultaneously estimating its position within this map. This chicken-eggproblem is known as simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM). Asctec's quadrotor Pelican is a powerful and flexible research UAS (unmanned aircraft system) which enables the development of new real-time on-board algorithms for SLAM as well as autonomous navigation. The relative UAS pose estimation for SLAM, usually based on low-cost sensors like inertial measurement units (IMU) and barometers, is known to be affected by high drift rates. In order to significantly reduce these effects, we incorporate additional independent pose estimation techniques using exteroceptive sensors. In this article we present first pose estimation results using a stereo camera setup as well as a laser range finder, individually. Even though these methods fail in few certain configurations we demonstrate their effectiveness and value for the reduction of IMU drift rates and give an outlook for further works towards SLAM.}, subject = {Angewandte Informatik}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{JaouadiLahmer, author = {Jaouadi, Zouhour and Lahmer, Tom}, title = {Topology optimization of structures subjected to multiple load cases by introducing the Epsilon constraint method}, series = {Digital Proceedings, International Conference on the Applications of Computer Science and Mathematics in Architecture and Civil Engineering : July 20 - 22 2015, Bauhaus-University Weimar}, booktitle = {Digital Proceedings, International Conference on the Applications of Computer Science and Mathematics in Architecture and Civil Engineering : July 20 - 22 2015, Bauhaus-University Weimar}, editor = {G{\"u}rlebeck, Klaus and Lahmer, Tom}, organization = {Bauhaus-Universit{\"a}t Weimar}, issn = {1611-4086}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.2804}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20170314-28042}, pages = {7}, abstract = {A topology optimization method has been developed for structures subjected to multiple load cases (Example of a bridge pier subjected to wind loads, traffic, superstructure...). We formulate the problem as a multi-criterial optimization problem, where the compliance is computed for each load case. Then, the Epsilon constraint method (method proposed by Chankong and Haimes, 1971) is adapted. The strategy of this method is based on the concept of minimizing the maximum compliance resulting from the critical load case while the other remaining compliances are considered in the constraints. In each iteration, the compliances of all load cases are computed and only the maximum one is minimized. The topology optimization process is switching from one load to another according to the variation of the resulting compliance. In this work we will motivate and explain the proposed methodology and provide some numerical examples.}, subject = {Angewandte Informatik}, language = {en} } @article{ZhaoLuRabczuk, author = {Zhao, Jiyun and Lu, Lixin and Rabczuk, Timon}, title = {The tensile and shear failure behavior dependence on chain length and temperature in amorphous polymers}, series = {Computational Materials Science}, journal = {Computational Materials Science}, pages = {567 -- 572}, abstract = {The tensile and shear failure behavior dependence on chain length and temperature in amorphous polymers}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{HommelGuerlebeck, author = {Hommel, Angela and G{\"u}rlebeck, Klaus}, title = {THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN LINEAR ELASTICITY THEORY AND COMPLEX FUNCTION THEORY STUDIED ON THE BASIS OF FINITE DIFFERENCES}, series = {Digital Proceedings, International Conference on the Applications of Computer Science and Mathematics in Architecture and Civil Engineering : July 20 - 22 2015, Bauhaus-University Weimar}, booktitle = {Digital Proceedings, International Conference on the Applications of Computer Science and Mathematics in Architecture and Civil Engineering : July 20 - 22 2015, Bauhaus-University Weimar}, editor = {G{\"u}rlebeck, Klaus and Lahmer, Tom}, organization = {Bauhaus-Universit{\"a}t Weimar}, issn = {1611-4086}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.2801}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20170314-28010}, pages = {6}, abstract = {It is well-known that the solution of the fundamental equations of linear elasticity for a homogeneous isotropic material in plane stress and strain state cases can be equivalently reduced to the solution of a biharmonic equation. The discrete version of the Theorem of Goursat is used to describe the solution of the discrete biharmonic equation by the help of two discrete holomorphic functions. In order to obtain a Taylor expansion of discrete holomorphic functions we introduce a basis of discrete polynomials which fulfill the so-called Appell property with respect to the discrete adjoint Cauchy-Riemann operator. All these steps are very important in the field of fracture mechanics, where stress and displacement fields in the neighborhood of singularities caused by cracks and notches have to be calculated with high accuracy. Using the sum representation of holomorphic functions it seems possible to reproduce the order of singularity and to determine important mechanical characteristics.}, subject = {Angewandte Informatik}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{Vasileva, author = {Vasileva, Iuliia}, title = {THE PROBLEM OF PARTIAL REINFORCING AN INTERFACE CRACK EDGE BY A RIGID PATCH PLATE UNDER IN-PLANE AND ANTIPLANE LOADS}, series = {Digital Proceedings, International Conference on the Applications of Computer Science and Mathematics in Architecture and Civil Engineering : July 20 - 22 2015, Bauhaus-University Weimar}, booktitle = {Digital Proceedings, International Conference on the Applications of Computer Science and Mathematics in Architecture and Civil Engineering : July 20 - 22 2015, Bauhaus-University Weimar}, editor = {G{\"u}rlebeck, Klaus and Lahmer, Tom}, organization = {Bauhaus-Universit{\"a}t Weimar}, issn = {1611-4086}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.2824}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20170314-28242}, pages = {5}, abstract = {The stress state of a piecewise-homogeneous elastic body, which has a semi-infinite crack along the interface, under in-plane and antiplane loads is considered. One of the crack edges is reinforced by a rigid patch plate on a finite interval adjacent to the crack tip. The crack edges are loaded with specified stresses. The body is stretched at infinity by specified stresses. External forces with a given principal vector and moment act on the patch plate. The problem reduces to a Riemann-Hilbert boundary-value matrix problem with a piecewise-constant coefficient for two complex potentials in the plane case and for one in the antiplane case. The complex potentials are found explicitly using a Gaussian hypergeometric function. The stress state of the body close to the ends of the patch plate, one of which is also simultaneously the crack tip, is investigated.
