The currently available treatments for inner ear disorders often involve systemic drug administration, leading to suboptimal drug concentrations and side effects. Cochlear implants offer a potential solution by providing localized and sustained drug delivery to the cochlea. While the mechanical characterization of both the implants and their...

This paper presents a numerical approach for investigating fatigue delamination propagation in composite stiffened panels loaded in compression in the post-buckling field. These components are widely utilized in aerospace structures due to their lightweight and high-strength properties. However, fatigue-induced damage, particularly delamination...

Moulding compounds used for encapsulating electronics typically occupy a large portion of package volume and are most exposed to the external environment. Under harsh conditions such as high temperature, humidity, and mechanical vibrations, constituent materials of electronic components degrade, resulting in a change in their thermal, mechanical...

ransition zones in railway tracks experience strong amplification of stress and strain fields due to the passage of train over inhomogeneity. The inhomogeneity in these zones can be attributed to changes in mechanical properties of material along the longitudinal direction of the track, and to displacement/traction discontinuities at interfaces...

Introduction: Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) of the arch is challenging given its complex geometry and the involvement of supra-aortic arteries. Different branched endografts have been designed for use in this region, but their haemodynamic performance and the risk for post-intervention complications are not yet clear. This study...

Ultrasonic flowmeters that use transit-time ultrasonic transducers face measurement errors due to 'crosstalk,' whereby the working signal travels through the pipe wall and couplings, interfering with the signal from the fluid. Although various procedures have been proposed to solve the issue of crosstalk, they're limited to low-frequency...

Maintaining offshore steel structures is challenging and not environmentally friendly due to the frequent visits for inspection and repairs. Some offshore lighthouses are equipped with carbon steel helidecks fixed onto their lantern galleries in the 1970s to provide easy and safe access to maintenance staff and inspectors. Even though the...

Three-point bending analysis, experimental and numerical, is conducted for three different sizes, 30*30 mm, 40*40 mm and 60*60 mm, of one-sided square cross-ply TEXIPREG HS 160 RM carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) patches as well as intact and notched specimens. The tests are carried out with the aim to study the influence of the patch’s...

In this paper, a 3D and fully coupled electromigration modeling is implemented using COMSOL. The fully coupled multi-physics theory has a unique set of partial differential equations, which cannot be directly simulated with the standard finite element software such as ABAQUS and ANSYS. With the weak form PDE modulus in COMSOL, the weak form of...

We study the acceleration of the finite element method (FEM) simulations using machine learning (ML) models. Specifically, we replace computationally expensive (parts of) FEM models with efficient ML surrogates. We develop three methods to speed up FEM simulations. The primary difference between these models is their degree of intrusion into the...

The goal of this paper is to evaluate the strain-based partitioning method (SBM), an analytical method based on beam analysis, for the mixed-mode fracture characterization of asymmetric cracks. The fracture energy is calculated at the crack tip of mixed-mode bending (MMB) test with asymmetric geometry and asymmetric material parameters. The...

Tracer methods are widespread in computational geodynamics for modeling the advection of chemical data. However, they present certain numerical challenges, especially when used over long periods of simulation time. We address two of these in this work: the necessity for mass conservation of chemical composition fields and the need for the...

Atherosclerotic plaque rupture in coronary arteries, an important trigger of myocardial infarction, is shown to correlate with high levels of pressure-induced mechanical stresses in plaques. Finite element (FE) analyses are commonly used for plaque stress assessment. However, the required information of heterogenous material properties of...

The city of Amsterdam has a large number of old quay walls with rotten foundation piles. These foundation piles need to be identified and measures need to be taken. The urban quay walls are supported by two types of foundation: pinewood piles, which are easily affected by bacterial decay and spruce piles. To understand the mechanical behaviour...

This study presents a numerical modelling approach for the prediction of vibration and acoustic noise for a 24/16 traction switched reluctance machine (SRM). The numerical modelling includes the simulation of electromagnetic force in JMAG, the calculation of natural frequencies and the simulation of vibration and acoustic noise in ACTRAN....

The application of strain gauges as recommended by the ASTM standards provides accurate strain measurements in isotropic materials. However, their use in composite materials becomes more challenging due to their anisotropic nature. In this study, we hypothesized that the use of the distributed sensing system and the three-dimensional digital...

In this paper, a recently developed theory - general coupling model of electromigration, is implemented in ANSYS. We first identify several errors provided in ANSYS manual for electromigration modeling. Then the general coupling model is implemented in ANSYS and the detailed description is presented. Finally, a 1-D confined metal line with a...

Since the exploitation of wind as a renewable energy resource, jack-up vessels equipped with more than three independent legs are increasingly employed to transport and install the components of offshore wind turbines. By lowering the movable legs the vessel is able to elevate the hull from sea water level. In elevated position the vessel...
