Nonlinear analysis of oil pipelines by potential minimization

TL;DR: In this paper, the problem of finding the deformed shape of a structure can be formulated as finding the minimum of the total potential for the system defined by the structure and the loads acting on it.

Non-conforming Coupling of Finite and Boundary Element Methods in Time Domain

TL;DR: The concept of combining these two approximation methods is carried forward to dynamic problems by developing a coupling framework in which the local discretization method can be chosen independently, and a Lagrange multiplier domain decomposition approach is preferred.

Stability analysis of constraints in flexible multibody systems dynamics

TL;DR: In this paper, the constraint equations for deformable bodies are modified for use in the neighborhood of the singular configuration to yield the system inertia matrix which is nonsingular and also to take the actual generalized constraint forces into account.

Fast Dynamic Analysis of Complicated Beam-Type Structure Based on Reduced Super Beam Model

TL;DR: In this article, a new model-reduction method based on the fine finite-element model of complicated beam-type structure is presented, which can meet the needs of fast rough estimation of structural global dynamic performances in preliminary design.

Comparison of Platform Switched and Sloping Shoulder Implants on Stress Reduction in various Bone Densities: Finite Element Analysis.

TL;DR: Sloping shoulder implant in subcrestal position is much favorable for bone growth, stress distribution, and preservation of remaining bone, and creates lesser stresses when compared with PS implants.
