In this article, a novel explicit approach for designing complex thin-walled structures based on the Moving Morphable Component (MMC) method is proposed, which provides a unified framework to systematically address various design issues,…
We study the propagation of elastic waves in the time-harmonic regime in a waveguide which is unbounded in one direction and bounded in the two other (transverse) directions. We assume that the waveguide is thin in one of these transverse…
In this article, we analyse a stabilised equal-order finite element approximation for the Stokes equations on anisotropic meshes. In particular, we allow arbitrary anisotropies in a sub-domain, for example along the boundary of the domain,…
We develop a cut finite element method (CutFEM) for convection-diffusion problems posed on mixed-dimensional domains, i.e., unions of manifolds of different dimensions arranged in a hierarchical structure where lower-dimensional components…
We present a comprehensive rotation-free Kirchhoff-Love (KL) shell formulation for peridynamics (PD) that is capable of modeling large elasto-plastic deformations and fracture in thin-walled structures. To remove the need for a predefined…
We extend the classical theory of sphere theorems to the transverse geometry of Riemannian foliations. In this setting, we establish transverse analogues of the Grove-Shiohama diameter sphere theorem and of the Berger-Klingenberg…
We consider the nonaxisymmetric linear theory of radially-stratified disks. We work in a shearing-sheet-like approximation, where the vertical structure of the disk is neglected, and develop equations for the evolution of a plane-wave…
We develop a unified framework for a broad class of nonlocal elliptic problems, encompassing a wide spectrum of nonlocal terms, including the classical Kirchhoff and Carrier-type equations as particular cases, and nonlinearities having…
A simplified, pseudoplastic rheology characterized by constant viscosity plateaus above and below a transition strain rate is applied to axisymmetric, gravitationally driven spreading of a thin fluid film with constant volume flux source in…
We introduce unconditionally stable finite element approximations for anisotropic Allen--Cahn and Cahn--Hilliard equations. These equations frequently feature in phase field models that appear in materials science. On introducing the novel…
The Cahn-Hilliard model with reaction terms can lead to situations in which no coarsening is taking place and, in contrast, growth and division of droplets occur which all do not grow larger than a certain size. This phenomenon has been…
We develop a general framework for construction and analysis of discrete extension operators with application to unfitted finite element approximation of partial differential equations. In unfitted methods so called cut elements intersected…
We propose a numerical strategy to generate the anisotropic meshes and select the appropriate stabilized parameters simultaneously for two dimensional convection-dominated convection-diffusion equations by stabilized continuous linear…
Curved thin sheets are ubiquitously found in nature and manmade structures. Within the framework of classical thin plate theory, the stiffness of thin sheets is independent of its bending state. This assumption, however, goes against…
Dendritic growth patterns exhibiting four-fold anisotropy are observed when polyethylene oxide undergoes phase segregation from a solution phase to a solid phase. When this phase transition occurs on a substrate that has patterns of…
In this paper, we deal with the asymptotic problem of a body of infinite extent with a notch (re-entrant corner) under remotely applied plane-strain or anti-plane shear loadings. The problem is formulated within the framework of the…
Effective interface conditions for a periodically voided thin layer separating two homogeneous bulk regions are derived for the elastic wave equation by taking the simultaneous limit of vanishing layer periodicity and layer thickness. The…
We consider the isoperimetric inequality on the class of high-dimensional isotropic convex bodies. We establish quantitative connections between two well-known open problems related to this inequality, namely, the thin shell conjecture, and…
We present a computational framework for analysing thin shell structures using the finite element method. The framework is based on a mesh-dependent shell model which we derive from the general laws of three-dimensional elasticity. We apply…
In this paper we propose a new method to stabilise non-symmetric indefinite problems. The idea is to solve a forward and an adjoint problem simultaneously using a suitable stabilised finite element method. Both stabilisation of the element…
