25. Experimental and numerical modeling of horizontally-bent buried pipelines crossing fault slip
Abstract The behavior and response of pipelines subjected to slip fault movement is studied by numerical simulations as well as experimental setup. A finite element modeling is also developed via ABAQUS software. In this study, an artificial accelerogram is applied to the system and matched against the response spectrum according to the standard No. 2800 (Ir

26. A Numerical Modelling of Mixed Mode Crack Initiation and Growth in Functionally Graded Materials
The main objective of this work is to present a numerical modeling of crack propagation path in isotropic functionally graded materials (FGMs) under mixed-mode loadings. The displacement extrapolation technique (DET) and the maximum circumferential stress (MCS) criterion are investigated in the context of crack growth in functionally graded beam subject to t

27. Contact phenomena modeling in biological structures on the example of the implant-bone
Abstract The work presents modeling of interface phenomena in biological structures. Selected ways of numerical modeling of phenomena at the boundary of two materials by means of FEM methods are discussed. The work focuses on phenomena related to biological structures and their mutual interactions. Using an example of an implant-bone system, various techniqu

28. Ray Tracing and Applications to an Evaporation Duct Model Based on Data from Oceanographic Buoy Sensors
Abstract The two-dimensional ray tracing method allows an easy and fast modeling of tropospheric propagation in the microwave frequency range. A version of this method that determines ray trajectories, amplitudes and delays of the electromagnetic field, as well as the propagation loss in a two-dimensional inhomogeneous environment will be described. The impl

29. MODELING SOIL WATER REDISTRIBUTION UNDER SURFACE DRIP IRRIGATION
ABSTRACT The main objective of this study was to develop a numerical model to simulate water distribution, and the shape of the wetted soil volume, resulting from a point source irrigation at the ground surface (dripper), given soil hydraulic properties and irrigation system parameters. The mathematical model was developed in Fortran 90 at the Department of

30. Performance evaluation of different soil water retention functions for modeling of water flow under transient condition
ABSTRACT ABSTRACT: Description and prediction of water flow through unsaturated soils is necessary to understand their hydraulic properties, including soil water retention curve (SWRC). Many models have been developed for estimation of SWRC and many researchers compared water retention curve derived from these models with the measured values. In this paper,

31. A Model Updating Method for Plate Elements Using Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), Modeling the Boundary Flexibility, Including Uncertainties on Material and Dimensional Properties
Abstract It is a well-known fact that, in a real engineering situation, fixtures are not ideally stiff, so numerical simulations using them are unlikely to present results that are consistent with the experimental ones. The present paper intends to describe a model updating methodology inserting translational and rotational springs in order to better represe

32. Numerical simulation of bolted connections
Abstract This article presents the modeling of a complete bolted connection based on a model with one bolt connecting two or three plates. Initially, the behavior of this model with one bolt is analyzed by comparing it with existing bibliography for 3 different types of applied load: tension, shear and a combination of these two. This model includes all nece

33. Aspects of Finite Element Modeling of Punching Shear Behavior of Reinforced Concrete Flat Slabs
Abstract A series of nonlinear FE analyses was conducted in this paper to model the punching shear failure of RC flat slabs. The analyses were carried out in the software DIANA using three-dimensional continuum elements. These analyses involve the test of different modeling choices in order to evaluate their influences on punching shear failure modeling. The

34. Numerical modeling of contact problems with the finite element method utilizing a B-Spline surface for contact surface smoothing
Abstract The basic aim of this work is to present a method to treat structural mechanics problems dealing with tridimensional contact and large elastic deformations. The formulation presented in this article offers a B-Spline based discretization for the contact surface, which solves the continuity problems presented by the classic Lagrangian contact element

36. Behavior and design of built-up compressed steel members composed of concentric hot rolled circular hollow sections
Abstract This research presents a study of the behavior of built-up compressed steel members composed of concentric hot rolled circular hollow sections. The use of these members is an innovative solution of practical interest for situations in which a single member does not reach the required compressive strength. Some technically and economically viable de
