Development of deep learning-based joint elements for thin-walled beam structures

This study presents a new modeling technique to estimate the stiffness matrix of a thin-walled beam-joint structure using deep learning. When thin-walled beams meet at joints, significant sectional deformations occur, such as warping and distortion. These deformations should be considered in the one-dimensional beam analysis, but it is...

Estimation of Facial Contact Pressure Based on Finite Element Analysis

A 3D head and face scan data can be usefully applied in the ergonomic design of a wearable product such as an oxygen mask or a virtual reality (VR) headset to support the safety as well as comfort for a certain amount of a target population. This study is aimed to develop analysis and design methods of an ergonomic facial wearable products (e.g....
