Computer application to aid the unidirectional functional dimensioning and tolerancing synthesis

J. Ciurana, C. Riba, M.L. G‐Romeu

The task of defining the parts in mechanical assembly based on their functional purpose is done by the functional dimensioning and tolerancing which tries to optimise its…

Rigid‐plastic finite element analysis of incremental radial forging process using the automatic expansion of domain scheme

K.H. Lee, S.R. Lee, D.Y. Yang

The incremental radial forging process employs several tens or hundreds of incremental local strokes, so that the entire process is difficult to analyze due to large computation…

The rough set theory and applications

Chengdong Wu, Yong Yue, Mengxin Li, Osei Adjei

This paper presents a comprehensive review of the available literature on applications of the rough set theory. Concepts of the rough set theory are discussed for approximation…

On the effect of the body force on the symmetry breaking in miscible two‐fluid channel flow

Sungcho Kim, Jaeyong Sung, Jongwook Choi

The two‐dimensional flow field is numerically investigated using a compact finite difference and a pseudo‐spectral method when two fluids with different physical properties are…

A hypersingular boundary integral method for quasi‐static antiplane deformations of an elastic bimaterial with an imperfect and viscoelastic interface

Whye‐Teong Ang, Hui Fan

A hypersingular boundary integral method is proposed for the numerical solution of a quasi‐static antiplane problem involving an elastic bimaterial with an imperfect interface…

Efficient algorithm for probabilistic analysis of complex function in engineering applications

Y.C. Soh, Y.C. Lam, Zhang Wu

Monte Carlo simulation (MCS) has been widely used in probabilistic analysis of the input‐output relationship of a complex function in various applications where probability…
