An efficient algorithm for generation of conforming mesh for three-dimensional discrete fracture networks
Soheil Mohajerani, Duruo Huang, Gang Wang, Seyed-Mohammad Esmaeil Jalali, Seyed Rahman TorabiThis study aims to develop an efficient algorithm for generation of conforming mesh for seepage analysis through 3D discrete fracture networks (DFN).
Model of the wheel motion state under path constraints based on the Darboux frame in 3D space
He Zhang, Shaowei Yang, Zhengfeng MaExisting three-dimensional (3D) road-surface models use approximation methods such as a set of discrete triangular patches and cannot accurately describe changes in the…
Meshfree method analysis of Biot’s consolidation using the node-based smoothed point interpolation method (NS-PIM)
ShiYang Pan, TongChun Li, Jing Cheng, Ping Yuan, Xinyang NingThe purpose of the article is to extend the node-based smoothed point interpolation method (NS-PIM) for soil consolidation analysis based on the Biot’s theory.
An evolutionary modelling approach to predicting stress-strain behaviour of saturated granular soils
Alireza Ahangar Asr, Asaad Faramarzi, Akbar A. JavadiThis paper aims to develop a unified framework for modelling triaxial deviator stress – axial strain and volumetric strain – axial strain behaviour of granular soils with the…
