TL;DR: The results show that the proposed approach always outperforms the use of transformations in the feature space and yields even better results when combined with linear input transformations.

TL;DR: In this article, a Taylor-type expansion up to the fourth-order has been assumed over the section coordinates, and error-type parameters have been introduced to establish the role played by each generalized displacement variable.
Abstract: This work deals with refined theories for beams with an increasing number of displacement variables. Reference has been made to the asymptotic and axiomatic methods. A Taylor-type expansion up to the fourth-order has been assumed over the section coordinates. The finite element governing equations have been derived in the framework of the Carrera unified formulation (CUF). The effectiveness of each expansion term, that is, of each displacement variable, has been established numerically considering various problems (traction, bending, and torsion), several beam sections (square, annular, and airfoil-type), and different beam slenderness ratios. The accuracy of these theories have been evaluated for displacement and stress components at different points over the section and along the beam axis. Error-type parameters have been introduced to establish the role played by each generalized displacement variable. It has been found that the number of terms that have to be retained for each of the considered beam theories is closely related to the addressed problem; different variables are requested to obtain accurate results for different problems. It has, therefore, been concluded that the full implementation of CUF, retaining all the available terms, would avoid the need of changing the theory when a problem is changed (geometries and/or loading conditions), as what happens in most engineering problems. On the other hand, CUF could be used to construct suitable beam theories in view of the fulfillment of prescribed accuracies..

TL;DR: This study presents the modeling of this cascade effect using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) technique and finds that the presence of the pollutants generated in the lower floor is generally lower in the immediate upper floor by two orders of magnitude, but the risk of infection calculated by the Wells–Riley equation is only around one order of magnitude lower.

TL;DR: In this article, a new level set method is developed for describing surfaces that are frozen behind a moving front, such as cracks, which combines very naturally with the extended finite element method (XFEM) where the discontinuous enrichment for cracks is best described in terms of level set functions.
Abstract: A new level set method is developed for describing surfaces that are frozen behind a moving front, such as cracks. In this formulation, the level set is described in two dimensions by a three-tuple: the sign of the level set function and the components of the closest point projection to the surface. The update of the level set is constructed by geometric formulas, which are easily implemented. Results are given for growth of lines in two dimensions that show the method is very accurate. The method combines very naturally with the extended finite element method (XFEM) where the discontinuous enrichment for cracks is best described in terms of level set functions. Examples of crack growth simulations obtained by combining this level set method with the extended finite element method are given. Copyright © 2003 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
