1. Finite element computational development for thermo-mechanical analysis of plane steel structures exposed to fire
Abstract This article presents a numerical formulation based on finite element procedures for application in nonlinear thermo-mechanical analyses of steel planar structures under fire condition. The mechanical properties of structural elements degrade when subjected to high temperatures, resulting in significant reductions in strength and stiffness. Under th

2. 3D Simulation and Artificial Neural Networks Application in the Diffusion Study of Champignon Mushroom/Solution Interface During the Salting
The influence of the film formed during the salting of champignon mushrooms with brine containing NaCl and KCl was modeled using the finite elements method (FEM). It was verified that the film formed on the mushroom surface had a greater influence in the static salting since the diffusion of the ions was 7.5-fold smaller in this system than in the stirred sa

3. Fuzzy Boundary for Beams Vibrations in Vehicles
ABSTRACT This work aims to study the transversal motion of a car’s chassis, modeled by a beam and supported at its ends by two sets of spring-damper elements. A finite differences method is utilized along with Robin boundary conditions to solve the mathematical modeling. The constants of the boundary conditions are modeled by a fuzzy parameter obtained thr

4. Methodology to Generate a Reluctance Network Applied to Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generators
Abstract This paper presents a methodology for the generation of a static reluctance network, with magnetomotive sources only in the rotor, applied in the analysis and design of surface mounted permanent magnet synchronous generators. In the analysis stage, this network can provide the magnetic flux in several points of the generator, enabling an estimate of

5. Unplanned dilution back analysis in an underground mine using numerical models
Abstract In underground mines, stability problems can cause unplanned dilution, increasing the costs of mining operations, such as loading, transport, crushing and grinding. This is usually dealt with by simply increasing investments with support. However, the design geometry of stopes and drifts also has a great effect on a stope’s stability. The use of e

6. Numerical formulation for nonlinear analysis of concrete and steel shells with deformable connections
Abstract A two-dimensional interface finite element capable of associating flat shell elements positioned one above the other was developed. The implemented interface element can physically simulate the contact between the flat shell elements and connect the reference planes of the shell elements above and below it. The formulation presented allows considera

8. FEM-DEM simulation of Uniaxial Compressive Strength (UCS) laboratory tests
Abstract Finite/discrete element methods (FDEM) are hybrid numerical models that use algorithms to analyze the transition from continuous to discontinuous. This type of formulation allows modeling physical laboratory tests with greater proximity to reality. This article proposes to simulate the average behavior of a uniaxial compression test campaign. The te

9. GPU Finite Element Method Computation Strategy Without Mesh Coloring
Abstract A GPU-adapted Finite Element Method (A-FEM) implementation without using a mesh coloring strategy to avoid race conditions is presented. All the elements are simultaneously processed, and the local data is computed and consolidated into the device memory in a new adapted Coordinate Format data structure (a-COO). The comparison between the proposed s

10. Optimization of shells modeled using NURBS subjected to a dynamic loading condition
Abstract This study presents an optimization method for the thickness of shell elements subjected to dynamic loads. Structural analyses were carried out using the finite element method. The analyzed domains were modeled using NURBS, and meshes were generated using a transformation of the parametric domain into the geometric domain via a geometric function. T

11. Mathematical Modeling of the Transesterification Reaction by Finite Elements: Optimization of Kinetic Parameters Using the Simplex Sequential Method
The use of biodiesel as fuel has been presented as a viable alternative in the search for renewable energies. It can be produced from the transesterification reaction of vegetable oils with methanol in the presence of sodium or potassium hydroxide as catalysts. In the present research, the transesterification reaction of soybean oil was modeled considering t

12. Hardening and Dynamic Recovery During Hot Compression Test of Copper Simulated as Viscoplastic Material
The Norton-Bailey equation was used to simulate by finite elements the hardening and dynamic recovery of copper during the hot compression tests. The constants of Norton-Bailey equation were determined from the Voce-Kocks model. The simulation assumes a Mortar Contact with Coulomb friction and axial symmetry. Numerical results were compared with experiments.
