THREE‐DIMENSIONAL TRANSIENT ANALYSIS OF A SINGLE SUBMERGED CYLINDRICAL SHELL

R.K. SINGH, T. KANT, A. KAKODKAR

Three‐dimensional transient analysis of a submerged cylindrical shell is presented. Three‐dimensional trilinear eight‐noded isoparametric fluid element with pressure variable as…

A SIMPLE FORMULATION OF A DILATANT JOINT ELEMENT GOVERNED BY COULOMB FRICTION

M.F. SNYMAN, W.W. BIRD, J.B. MARTIN

The paper considers a plane joint or interface element suitable for implementation into a standard non‐linear finite element code. Sliding of the joint is assumed to be governed…

MULTIPLE LEVEL DYNAMIC SUBSTRUCTURE ANALYSIS

MINGWU YUAN, SHANJI XIONG, XIAOHONG CHEN

An exact multiple‐level dynamic substructure technique was developed by a combination of WYD algorithm and static multiple‐level substructuring technique. This method is…

FINITE ELEMENT COMPUTATION OF SPREAD IN HOT FLAT AND SHAPE ROLLING WITH A STEADY STATE APPROACH

J.L. CHENOT, P. MONTMITONNET, P. BUESSLER, F. FAU

A technique for computing free surfaces by a steady state approach has been included in the hot rolling code ROLL3. It has been described in a previous paper, along with…

IMPROVEMENT OF THREE‐DIMENSIONAL HYBRID HEXAHEDRAL ELEMENTS BY USING ORTHOGONAL APPROACH

WANJI CHEN, Y.K. CHEUNG

Based on the orthogonal approach for hybrid element methods, refined three‐dimensional isoparametric hybrid hexahedral elements have been developed. The behaviour of the proposed…

ELASTO‐VISCOPLASTIC ANALYSIS OF FIBRE‐REINFORCED COMPOSITES

Y.W. KWON

An analysis model has been developed for the elasto‐viscoplastic analysis of continuous fibre‐reinforced composite structures. Elastic deformation of fibre and elasto‐viscoplastic…
