Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiofidel FEA Modeling of Customized Hybrid Biological Hip Joint Prostheses, Part I: Biomechanical Behavior of Implanted FemurRaffaella Aversa, Florian Ion T. Petrescu, Relly Victoria V. Petrescu, Antonio ApicellaBiofidel femur Finite Element Models have been developed using specific combination of Computer Tomography segmentation and solid modeling software tools able to represent bone physiology and structural behavior. These biofidel Finite Element Models (FEM) is used to evaluate the modification of the physiological stress distribution in a prosthesized femur and to assess new design criteria for the development of biomimetic … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 16 Dec 2016 · 8,716 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHybrid Ceramo-Polymeric Nanocomposite for Biomimetic Scaffolds Design and PreparationRaffaella Aversa, Relly Victoria V. Petrescu, Roberto Sorrentino et al.Biomimetics, biomechanics and tissue engineering are three multidisciplinary fields that have been contemplated in this research to attain the objective of improving prosthetic implants reliability. Since testing and mathematical methods are closely interlaced, a promising approach seemed to be the combination of in vitro and in vivo experiments with computer simulations (in silico). An innovative biomimetics and biomechanics approach and … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 30 Nov 2016 · 8,269 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCFD-PBE Modelling and Simulation of Enzymatic Hydrolysis of Cellulose in a Stirred TankNorazaliza Mohd Jamil, Qi WangRenewable energy or biofuel from lignocellulosic biomass is an alternative way to replace the depleting fossil fuels. The production cost can be reduced by increasing the concentration of biomass particles. However, lignocellulosic biomass is a suspension of natural fibres and processing at high solid concentration is a challenging task because it will affect the mixing quality between the enzyme and … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 25 Oct 2016 · 7,999 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdvanced XFEM Simulation of Pull-out and Debonding of Steel Bars and FRP-Reinforcements in Concrete BeamsNicola Orlando, Elena BenvenutiAn innovative three-dimensional model is applied to the pull-out of steel bars and the debonding of FRP plates from concrete specimens. The shearing and opening modes at the interface of debonding is fully captured. The model is based on an innovative variant of the regularized eXtended Finite Element Method (XFEM) developed by the authors. In this method, the displacement discontinuity … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 6 Oct 2016 · 8,289 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIdentification of a Machine Tool Spindle Critical Frequency through Modal and Imbalance Response AnalysisKhairul Jauhari, Achmad Widodo, Ismoyo HaryantoThe most important part for machine tool system is spindle system. The structural properties of spindle will affect to the productivity of machining process and the work pieces quality. Thus it is necessary and very important to know its spindle dynamic behaviors for avoiding forced vibration due to resonance. The Finite Element Method (FEM) has been adopted for obtaining spindle … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 14 Feb 2016 · 8,591 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFinite Element Formulation for Active Composite LaminatesDragan Marinkovic, Manfred ZehnSmart structures are characterized by a synergistic integration of active materials into a passive structure connected by a control system to enable an automatic adaptation to changing environmental conditions. Piezoelectric materials are widely used as distributed sensors and actuators in smart structures, where especially hybrid composites - a combination of fiber-reinforced and piezoelectric laminae - are very powerful smart material … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 2 Jun 2015 · 7,778 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Criterion for Determining the Ultimate Pullout Capacity of Plate Anchors in Clay by Numerical AnalysisHaixiao Liu, Fangmei Su, Zhou LiThe Ultimate Pullout Capacity (UPC) is an important index in designing and analyzing plate anchors. However, there are still uncertainties in determining the UPC through the load-displacement curves calculated from numerical analysis. The review on the existing criteria for determining the UPC also demonstrates that there has not been a generally accepted criterion and most existing criteria are not only … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 19 Jan 2015 · 8,413 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFINITE VOLUME METHOD OF MODELLING TRANSIENT GROUNDWATER FLOWN. Muyinda, G. Kakuba, J. M. MangoIn the field of computational fluid dynamics, the finite volume method is dominant over other numerical techniques like the finite difference and finite element methods because the underlying physical quantities are conserved at the discrete level. In the present study, the finite volume method is used to solve an isotropic transient groundwater flow model to obtain hydraulic heads and flow … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 15 Feb 2014 · 7,108 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPROGRESS OF BIOMATERIALS IN THE FIELD OF ORTHOPAEDICSD. Chandramohan, J. Bharanichandar, P. Karthikeyan et al.The aim of this study is to compare the metallic and natural fiber reinforced polymer composite bone plates used in humerus fractures. A 3D finite element model was developed to analyze the performance of both types of plates. This study proposed on fabrication of natural fiber powdered material (like Sisal (Agave sisalana), Banana (Musa sapientum) and Roselle (Hibiscus sabdariffa)) Reinforced … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 6 Feb 2014 · 7,589 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSTEEL FIBER CURVATURE IN CONCRETE COMPOSITES: MODULUS PREDICTIONS USING EFFECTIVE STEEL FIBER PROPERTIESAbdellatif SelmiResults in the literature demonstrate that substantial improvements in the mechanical behavior of concrete have been attained through the addition of steel fibers as a reinforcing phase. We have developed a model combining finite element results and micromechanical methods to determine the effective reinforcing modu-lus of hook-ended steel fibers. This effective reinforcing modulus is then used within a multiphase micro-mechanics … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 13 Dec 2013 · 7,051 accessesView PDFCite
