Plasticity induced fatigue crack closure simulations were performed using a three-dimensional finite element analysis of a single edge-cracked tension specimen under constant amplitude loading and load ratio R = 0. Four different methodologies were considered to assess fatigue crack closure: (a) a n

This paper presents a technique using combined ΓΏnite element and analytical methods for determining the dynamic responses of structures to moving bodies. In previous work (Comput. Struct., submitted), moving masses were treated as moving loads, ignoring inertia e ects. This is not always reasonable
Recently much attention has been paid to high-performance computing and the development of parallel computational strategies and numerical algorithms for large-scale problems. In this present study, a ΓΏnite element procedure for the dynamic analyses of anisotropic viscoelastic composite shell struct
## Abstract This article presents the development of discontinuous Galerkin timeβdomain finiteβelement method (DGβTDFEM) for modeling wideband electromagnetic response of dielectric loaded waveguide structures.The method can be considered as a kind of domain decomposition method. The hierarchical v
