Quadratic NURBS-based discretizations of the Galerkin method suffer from membrane locking when applied to Kirchhoff-Love shell formulations. Membrane locking causes not only smaller displacements than expected, but also large-amplitude…

Quadratic NURBS-based discretizations of the Galerkin method suffer from volumetric locking when applied to nearly-incompressible linear elasticity. Volumetric locking causes not only smaller displacements than expected, but also…

This work presents a new hybrid discretization approach to alleviate membrane locking in isogeometric finite element formulations for Kirchhoff-Love shells. The approach is simple, and requires no additional dofs and no static condensation.…

In this work, an efficient and robust isogeometric three-dimensional solid-beam finite element is developed for large deformations and finite rotations with merely displacements as degrees of freedom. The finite strain theory and…

Shells are ubiquitous thin structures that can undergo large nonlinear elastic deformations while exhibiting combined modes of bending and stretching, and have profound modern applications. In this paper, we have proposed a new Isogeometric…

We construct a cut finite element method for the membrane elasticity problem on an embedded mesh using tangential differential calculus. Both free membranes and membranes coupled to 3D elasticity are considered. The discretization comes…

In this work a novel approach is presented for the isogeometric Boundary Element analysis of domains that contain inclusions with different elastic properties than the ones used for computing the fundamental solutions. In addition the…

We present an algorithm for fast generation of quasi-uniform and variable-spacing nodes on domains whose boundaries are represented as computer-aided design (CAD) models, more specifically non-uniform rational B-splines (NURBS). This new…

When discretizing symmetric stress tensors in variational problems arising in continuum mechanics, one has to choose how to enforce the symmetry of the stress tensor: (i) strongly by requiring the discrete tensors to be pointwise symmetric…

Locking is a common effect in finite element and isogeometric analysis. In the case of plates, transverse shear locking is most prominent, for shells several other types of locking exist. A common cure are mixed methods that introduce…

In this work, we study a primal hybrid finite element method for the approximation of linear elasticity problems, posed in terms of displacement, an auxiliary pressure field, and a Lagrange multiplier related to the traction. We develop a…

For linear elastic problems, it is well-known that mesh generation dominates the total analysis time. Different types of methods have been proposed to directly or indirectly alleviate this burden associated with mesh generation. We review…

A general-purpose computational homogenization framework is proposed for the nonlinear dynamic analysis of membranes exhibiting complex microscale and/or mesoscale heterogeneity characterized by in-plane periodicity that cannot be…

Fiber-reinforced soft biological tissues are typically modeled as hyperelastic, anisotropic, and nearly incompressible materials. To enforce incompressibility a multiplicative split of the deformation gradient into a volumetric and an…

Membrane locking in finite element approximations of thin beams and shells has remained an unresolved topic despite four decades of research. In this article, we utilize Fourier analysis of the complete spectrum of natural vibrations and…

We develop a mixed formulation for incompressible hyper-elastodynamics based on a continuum modeling framework recently developed and smooth generalizations of the Taylor-Hood element based on non-uniform rational B-splines (NURBS). This…

Isogeometric cohesive elements are presented for modeling two and three dimensional delaminated composite structures. We exploit the knot insertion algorithm offered by NURBS (Non Uniform Rational B-splines) to generate cohesive elements…

This work concerns the numerical analysis of the linear elasticity problem with a Robin boundary condition on a smooth domain. A finite element discretization is presented using high-order curved meshes in order to accurately discretize the…

A design problem of finding an optimally stiff membrane structure by selecting one-dimensional fiber reinforcements is formulated and solved. The membrane model is derived in a novel manner from a particular three-dimensional linear elastic…

We employ surface differential calculus to derive models for Kirchhoff plates including in-plane membrane deformations. We also extend our formulation to structures of plates. For solving the resulting set of partial differential equations,…
