This work investigates finite element approximations for a general class of elliptic hemivariational inequalities arising in semipermeable media. The proposed model incorporates non-isotropic and heterogeneous diffusion coefficients,…

Cracking Elements Method (CEM) is a numerical tool to simulate quasi-brittle fractures, which does not need remeshing, nodal enrichment, or complicated crack tracking strategy. The cracking elements used in the CEM can be considered as a…

This article presents a $P_0$ finite element method for boundary value problems for linear elasticity equations. The new method makes use of piecewise constant approximating functions on the boundary of each polytopal element, and is…

A geometrically nonlinear finite element model is developed for the bending analysis of micropolar Timoshenko beams using the principle of virtual displacements and linear Lagrange interpolation functions. The nonlinearity enters the model…

This article considers a model problem of elastoplasticity with linearly kinematic hardening and presents hp-finite element discretizations of two equivalent weak formulations each having their respective advantages. A mixed variational…

In this paper, the numerical approximation of isometric deformations of thin elastic shells is discussed. To this end, for a thin shell represented by a parametrized surface, it is shown how to transform the stored elastic energy for an…

We perform a probabilistic investigation on the effect of systematically removing imperfections on the buckling behavior of pressurized thin, elastic, hemispherical shells containing a distribution of defects. We employ finite element…

We present a model for smectic elastomer membranes which includes elastic and liquid crystalline degrees of freedom. Based on our model, we determined the qualitative phase diagram of a smectic elastomer membrane using mean-field theory.…

This paper studies the discretization of a homogenization and dimension reduction model for the elastic deformation of microstructured thin plates proposed by Hornung, Neukamm, and Vel\v{c}i\'c in 2014. Thereby, a nonlinear bending energy…

Consider the elastic scattering of an incident wave by a rigid obstacle in three dimensions, which is formulated as an exterior problem for the Navier equation. By constructing a Dirichlet-to-Neumann (DtN) operator and introducing a…

We propose UPOQA, a derivative-free optimization algorithm for partially separable unconstrained problems, leveraging quadratic interpolation and a structured trust-region framework. By decomposing the objective into element functions,…

We consider the common problem setting of an elastic sphere impacting on a flexible beam. In contrast to previous studies, we analyze the modal energy distribution induced by the impact, having in mind the particular application of impact…

This paper focuses on the analysis of a free energy functional, that models a dilute suspension of magnetic nanoparticles in a two-dimensional nematic well. The {\it first part} of the article is devoted to the asymptotic analysis of global…

Two non-overlapping domain decomposition methods are presented for the mixed finite element formulation of linear elasticity with weakly enforced stress symmetry. The methods utilize either displacement or normal stress Lagrange multiplier…

In this paper we develop a simple finite element method for simulation of embedded layers of high permeability in a matrix of lower permeability using a basic model of Darcy flow in embedded cracks. The cracks are allowed to cut through the…

This article is the second of a three-part series that derives a self-consistent theoretical framework of the electromechanics of arbitrarily curved lipid membranes. Existing continuum theories commonly treat lipid membranes as strictly…

Cell blebs are protrusions of the cell membrane and can be instrumental for cell migration. We derive a continuum model for the mechanical and geometrical aspects of the onset of blebbing in terms of a force balance. It is abstract and…

Mixed methods for linear elasticity with strongly symmetric stresses of lowest order are studied in this paper. On each simplex, the stress space has piecewise linear components with respect to its Alfeld split (which connects the vertices…

As 2D materials such as graphene, transition metal dichalcogenides, and 2D polymers become more prevalent, solution processing and colloidal-state properties are being exploited to create advanced and functional materials. However, our…
