It has been known for decades that fatigue crack propagation in elastic-plastic media is very sensitive to load history since the nonlinear behavior of the material...

This thesis presents a methodology for developing under-integrated “solid-shell” finite elements for sheet forming simulations like deep drawing where these elements...

The instability of underground cavities due to mining or tunneling activities can induce surface ground movements which damage overlying buildings and infrastructures....

Stormwater detention basins are used to preserve the quality of receiving waters by sedimentation during the wet weather. However, the removal efficiencies of basin...
