Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsNonlinear Analysis of RC Box Culverts Resting on a Linear Elastic SoilDaniele Baraldi, Fabio Minghini, Enrico Tezzon, Nerio TulliniIn the analyses presented, the soil-structure interaction is accounted for by means of a FE-BIE approach, in which the structure is modelled with displacement-based beam finite elements, whereas the boundary between structure and substrate is described in terms of surface tractions by means of a boundary integral equation incorporating a suitable Green's function. This mixed formulation ensures full continuity between … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 8 Feb 2018 · 12,632 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment of Efficient Finite Element Software of Crack Propagation Simulation using Adaptive Mesh StrategyAbdulnaser M. Alshoaibi, A. K. Ariffin, M. N. AlmaghrabiThe purpose of this study is on the determination of 2D crack paths and surfaces as well as on the evaluation of the stress intensity factors as a part of the damage tolerant assessment. Problem statement: The evaluation of SIFs and crack tip singular stresses for arbitrary fracture structure are a challenging problem, involving the calculation of the crack path … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,822 accessesView PDF Cite
