This paper proposes a Stochastic Finite Element Method (SFEM) for non-linear elasto-plastic bodies, as a generalization of the SFEM for linear elastic bodies developed by Ghanem and Spanos who applied the Karhunen}Loeve expansion and the polynomial chaos expansion for stochastic material properties

β¦ Synopsis
A finite-element solution for elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) of spherical bodies undergoing elastic deformation is presented. The Galerkin finite-element approach is employed and the domain under investigation is discretized using isoparametric quadrilateral elements. Isothermal conditions are assumed and the generation of the pressure is assumed to be governed by the Reynolds equation. The viscosity and the density of the oil are assumed to be functions of the pressure. It is assumed that the underlying surface deforms elastically under the hydrodynamic pressure distribution. The accuracy of the technique is illustrated in particular examples.

An rh-method, which combines r-and h-methods, is proposed for cost-eective adaptive FE analysis in twodimensional linear elastic problems. Through various numerical test examples, the rh-method is compared with the h-method. From these examples it is concluded that the rh-method has the advantages o
## Abstract We establish some optimal __a priori__ error estimates on some variants of the eXtended Finite Element Method (Xfem), namely the Xfem with a cutβoff function and the standard Xfem with a fixed enrichment area. Both the LamΓ© system (homogeneous isotropic elasticity) and the Laplace probl
This article advocates a general procedure for the numerical investigation of pseudo-rigid bodies. The equations of motion for pseudo-rigid bodies are shown to be mathematically equivalent to those corresponding to certain constant-strain ΓΏnite element approximations for general deformable continua.
