Book Description
8th World Congress on Computational Mechanics
Author: Bernhard A. SchreflerGeometrically Exact Theory for Contact Interactions
Author: Alexander KonyukhovPublisher: KIT Scientific Publishing
ISBN: 3866446721
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 540
Book Description
The intuitive understanding of contact bodies is based on the geometry and adjoining surfaces. A powerful approach to solve the contact problem is to take advantage of the geometry of an analyzed object and describe the problem in the best coordinate system. This book is a systematical analysis of geometrical situations leading to contact pairs: suface-to-surface, curve-to-surface, point-to-surface a.s.o. resultingin the corresponding computational algorithms to solve the contact problem.

Modelling Rock Fracturing Processes
Author: Baotang ShenPublisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 303035525X
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 579
Book Description
This book is the second edition of the well-known textbook Modelling Rock Fracturing Processes. The new and extended edition provides the theoretical background of rock fracture mechanics used for modelling of 2-D and 3-D geomechanics problems and processes. Fundamentals of rock fracture mechanics integrated with experimental studies of rock fracturing processes are highlighted. The computer programs FRACOD 2D and 3D are used to analyse fracture initiation and propagation for the three fracture modes: Mode I, II and III. Coupled fracture modelling with other continuous and distinct element codes including FLAC, PFC, RFPA, TOUGH are also described. A series of applications of fracture modelling with importance for modern society is presented and discussed by distinguished rock fracture modelling experts.
New Trends in Thin Structures: Formulation, Optimization and Coupled Problems
Author: Paolo de Mattos PimentaPublisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3709102316

Book Description
The main focus of the book is to convey modern techniques applied within the range of computational mechanics of beams, plates and shells. The topics of interest are wide ranging and include computational aspects of nonlinear theories of shells and beams including dynamics, advanced discretization methods for thin shells and membranes, shear-deformable shell finite elements for SMA composite devices, optimization and design of shells and membranes, fluid-structure interaction with thin-walled structures, contact mechanics with application to thin structures and edge effects in laminated shells.
Reproducibility and Replicability in Science
Author: National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and MedicinePublisher: National Academies Press
ISBN: 0309486165
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 257
Book Description
One of the pathways by which the scientific community confirms the validity of a new scientific discovery is by repeating the research that produced it. When a scientific effort fails to independently confirm the computations or results of a previous study, some fear that it may be a symptom of a lack of rigor in science, while others argue that such an observed inconsistency can be an important precursor to new discovery. Concerns about reproducibility and replicability have been expressed in both scientific and popular media. As these concerns came to light, Congress requested that the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine conduct a study to assess the extent of issues related to reproducibility and replicability and to offer recommendations for improving rigor and transparency in scientific research. Reproducibility and Replicability in Science defines reproducibility and replicability and examines the factors that may lead to non-reproducibility and non-replicability in research. Unlike the typical expectation of reproducibility between two computations, expectations about replicability are more nuanced, and in some cases a lack of replicability can aid the process of scientific discovery. This report provides recommendations to researchers, academic institutions, journals, and funders on steps they can take to improve reproducibility and replicability in science.
