Finite Element Modeling of Carbon Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Reinforced Concrete Beams under Elevated Temperatures
TL;DR: In this paper, a three-dimensional finite element (FE) model for the prediction of response of reinforced concrete (RC) beams under an elevated temperature regime was presented, where the beams were reinforced with either steel or fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) bars.

Stability of steel plates under combined loading
TL;DR: In this paper, the stability behavior of steel plates under selected load combinations and to develop design rules which resolve shortcomings of EN 1993-1-5:2006 was analyzed. But the results of this work showed significant discrepancies between the proven rules of DIN 18800-3:1990.

Study of electrical and mechanical contribution to switching in ferroelectric/ferroelastic polycrystals
TL;DR: In this article, a finite element model for polarization switching in polycrystalline lead lanthanum zirconate titanate (PLZT) is presented. But the model is restricted to a single domain that switches completely without a simulated domain wall motion and the possible dipole directions of each crystallite are assigned randomly subject to crystallographic constraints.

Multidisciplinary aerodynamic-structural shape optimization using deformation (massoud)
TL;DR: In this article, a multidisciplinary shape parameterization approach is presented for low-fidelity (e.g., linear aerodynamics and equivalent laminated plate structures) and high fidelity (i.e., nonlinear computational fluid dynamics and detailed finite element modeling analysis tools).
