Image-Based Quantification and Coupled PNM-FEM of Architecture, Deformation, and Fluid Dynamics in Biological Porous Media Under Mechanical Loading
… Network Modeling (PNM), Finite Element Method (FEM), and statistical image analysis to study the involvement of fluid on the mechanical responses of load-bearing connective tissues. The extracellular matrix (ECM), a porous scaffold filled with fluid, governs key cellular functions. The …

An integrated peridynamics-finite volume based multi-phase flow, geomechanics and hydraulic fracture model
… flow and made it significantly faster by coupling it with the less expensive Finite Volume Method. The single-phase peridynamics flow model for slightly compressible, Newtonian fluids has been generalized for multiphase, multicomponent flow of compressible, non-Newtonian fluids. The …

Modeling Vehicle and Rail Vibrations Due to the Passage of High Speed Trains Using Coupled Traveling and Stationary Finite Element Models
… and track models and their simulation using a coupling scheme. The train model has multiple degrees of freedom, and includes multiple train cars, bogies, and wheels. The track is modeled using Timoshenko beams for the rail so the shear and rotational effects on the rail due to the combined …

Three-dimensional layerwise modeling of layered media with boundary integral equations
A hybrid method is presented for the analysis of layers, plates, and multi-layered systems consisting of isotropic and linear elastic materials. The problem is formulated for the general case of a multi-layered system using a total potential energy formulation and employing the layerwise laminate …
