constraints in a implicit sparse direct solver. It is shown that direct addressing of sparse matrices is possible in general circumstances, circumventing the traditional linear or binary search for introducing (generalized) constituents to a sparse matrix. Nested and arbitrarily interconnected multiple-point constraints are introduced by processing of multiplicative constituents with a built-in topological ordering of the resulting directed graph. A classification of discretization methods is performed and some re-classified problems are described and solved under this proposed perspective. The dependence relations between solution methods, algorithms and constituents becomes apparent. Fracture algorithms can be naturally casted in this framework. Solutions based on control equations are also directly incorporated as equality constraints. We show that arbitrary constituents can be used as long as the resulting directed graph is acyclic. It is also shown that graph partitions and orderings should be performed in the innermost part of the algorithm, a fact with some peculiar consequences. The core of our implicit code is described, specifically new algorithms for direct access of sparse matrices (by means of the clique structure) and general constituent processing. It is demonstrated that the graph structure of the second derivatives of the equality constraints are cliques (or pseudo-elements) and are naturally included as such. A complete algorithm is presented which allows a complete automation of equality constraints, avoiding the need of pre-sorting. Verification applications in four distinct areas are shown: single and multiple rigid body dynamics, solution control and computational fracture.}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @article{JiangRabczukPark, author = {Jiang, Jin-Wu and Rabczuk, Timon and Park, Harold S.}, title = {A Stillinger-Weber Potential for Single-Layer Black Phosphorus, and the Importance of Cross-Pucker Interactions for Negative Poisson's Ratio and Edge Stress-Induced Bending}, series = {Nanoscale}, journal = {Nanoscale}, doi = {10.1039/C4NR07341J}, abstract = {The distinguishing structural feature of single-layered black phosphorus is its puckered structure, which leads to many novel physical properties. In this work, we first present a new parameterization of the Stillinger-Weber potential for single-layered black phosphorus. In doing so, we reveal the importance of a cross-pucker interaction term in capturing its unique mechanical properties, such as a negative Poisson's ratio. In particular, we show that the cross-pucker interaction enables the pucker to act as a re-entrant hinge, which expands in the lateral direction when it is stretched in the longitudinal direction. As a consequence, single-layered black phosphorus has a negative Poisson's ratio in the direction perpendicular to the atomic plane. As an additional demonstration of the impact of the cross-pucker interaction, we show that it is also the key factor that enables capturing the edge stress-induced bending of single-layered black phosphorus that has been reported in ab initio calculations.}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @article{HiguchiMacke, author = {Higuchi, Shoko and Macke, M.}, title = {Cost-benefit based optimization of maintenance interventions for deteriorating structures}, series = {Structural Engineering/Earthquake Engineering}, journal = {Structural Engineering/Earthquake Engineering}, pages = {131 -- 147}, abstract = {Cost-benefit based optimization of maintenance interventions for deteriorating structures}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @article{TalebiSilaniRabczuk, author = {Talebi, Hossein and Silani, Mohammad and Rabczuk, Timon}, title = {Concurrent Multiscale Modelling of Three Dimensional Crack and Dislocation Propagation}, series = {Advances in Engineering Software}, journal = {Advances in Engineering Software}, pages = {82 -- 92}, abstract = {Concurrent Multiscale Modelling of Three Dimensional Crack and Dislocation Propagation}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @article{XuMourrainGalligoetal., author = {Xu, G. and Mourrain, B. and Galligo, A. and Rabczuk, Timon}, title = {High-quality construction of analysis-suitable trivariate NURBS solids by reparameterization methods}, series = {Computational Mechanics}, journal = {Computational Mechanics}, abstract = {High-quality construction of analysis-suitable trivariate NURBS solids by reparameterization methods}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @article{PhanDaoNguyenXuanThaiHoangetal., author = {Phan-Dao, H. and Nguyen-Xuan, Hung and Thai-Hoang, C. and Nguyen-Thoi, T. and Rabczuk, Timon}, title = {An edge-based smoothed finite element method for analysis of laminated composite plates}, series = {International Journal of Computational Methods}, journal = {International Journal of Computational Methods}, abstract = {An edge-based smoothed finite element method for analysis of laminated composite plates}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @article{SilaniZiaeiRadTalebietal., author = {Silani, Mohammad and Ziaei-Rad, S. and Talebi, Hossein and Rabczuk, Timon}, title = {A Semi-Concurrent Multiscale Approach for Modeling Damage in Nanocomposites}, series = {Theoretical and Applied Fracture Mechanics}, journal = {Theoretical and Applied Fracture Mechanics}, abstract = {A Semi-Concurrent Multiscale Approach for Modeling Damage in Nanocomposites}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @article{AmaniBagherzadehRabczuk, author = {Amani, Jafar and Bagherzadeh, Amir Saboor and Rabczuk, Timon}, title = {Error estimate and adaptive refinement in Mixed Discrete Least Squares Meshless method}, series = {Mathematical Problems in Engineering}, journal = {Mathematical Problems in Engineering}, abstract = {Error estimate and adaptive refinement in Mixed Discrete Least Squares Meshless method}, subject = {Angewandte Mathematik}, language = {en} } @article{JiangWangRabczuk, author = {Jiang, Jin-Wu and Wang, Bing-Shen and Rabczuk, Timon}, title = {Acoustic and breathing phonon modes in bilayer graphene with Moire-acute patterns}, series = {Applied Physics Letters}, journal = {Applied Physics Letters}, doi = {10.1063/1.4735246}, abstract = {The lattice dynamics properties are investigated for twisting bilayer graphene.
