An interface-enriched generalized finite element method for the design of actively-cooled microvascular composites
… problem morphology. To capture the temperature gradient discontinuity caused by the mismatch between the materials properties of the fluid and the solid phases, the IGFEM employs enrichment functions associated with new nodes created at the intersection of the microchannel surfaces with the …

Dimensionally reduced modeling and gradient-based design of microchannel cooling networks
… in the microchannel networks. To capture the gradient discontinuity in the temperature field due to the microchannels, we employ the interface-enriched generalized finite element method (IGFEM) as the numerical solver, which greatly simplifies mesh generation by allowing for the use of meshes …
