Developments in Extended Finite Element Methods for Extraction of Strain Energy Release Rates and Computational Nanomechanics for SWCNT Aggregates
… form (for some crack configurations studied) and therefore results in an accurate and efficient method. The effects of high order enrichments, mesh refinement and the integration limits of Irwin's integral are examined in benchmark numerical examples. The results indicate that high order …

Developments in the theory and applications of the variability response function concept
… is crucial to the decision making process in the analysis, design, and retrofitting of infrastructure. The consensus amongst researchers is that deterministic approaches to problem solving can lead to very misleading results, and the assessment of infrastructure performance needs to be addressed …

Stress Transfer and Structural Failure of Bilayered Material Systems
… or artificially engineered structures. Understanding how loads transfer within these structural systems is necessary to predict failure and develop effective designs. Existing methods for evaluating the stress transfer in bilayered materials are limited to overly simplified models or require …
