Abstract Free vibration problem of a rotating Euler-Bernoulli beam is solved with a truly meshless local Petrov-Galerkin method. Radial basis function and summation of two radial basis functions are used for interpolation. Radial basis function satisfies the Kronecker delta property and makes it simpler to apply the essential boundary conditions. Interpolation with summation of two radial basis functions increases the node carrying capacity within the sub-domain of the trial function and higher natural frequencies can be computed by selecting the complete domain as a sub-domain of the trial function. The mass and stiffness matrices are derived and numerical results for frequencies… More >

Abstract In this article, we demonstrate a numerical 3-D chip, and studied the capillary dynamics inside the microchannel. We applied the level set method on the Navier-Stokes equation which incorporates the surface tension and two-phase flow characteristics. We analyzed the capillary dynamics near the junction of two microchannels. Such a highlighting point is important that it not only can provide the information of interface behavior when fluids are made into a head-on collision, but also emphasize the idea for the design of the chip. In addition, we study the pressure distribution of the fluids at the junction. It is shown that… More >

Abstract Simulation of airbag and membrane deployment under pressurized gas problems becomes more and more the focus of computational engineering, where FEM (Finite element Methods) for structural mechanics and Finite Volume for CFD are dominant. New formulations have been developed for FSI applications using mesh free methods as SPH method, (Smooth Particle Hydrodynamic). Up to these days very little has been done to compare different methods and assess which one would be more suitable. For small deformation, FEM Lagrangian formulation can solve structure interface and material boundary accurately, the main limitation of the formulation is high mesh distortion for large deformation… More >
