چکیده
The purpose of the present work was to construct the multiscale FEM model of artificial heart chamber composed of nanocoatings. This goal is reached by the development of the FEM macromodel of artificial blood chamber using the commercial code and by the creation of the micromodel based on our own FEM code. The latter uses strain state obtained after loading in macromodel. The loci of failure initiation in the material of chamber were precisely determined and these results are used as an input data for the new micromodel.

This paper aims to develop a numerical multiscale homogenization method for prediction of elasto-viscoplastic properties of a high performance concrete (HPC). The homogenization procedure is separated into two-levels according to the microstructure of the HPC: the mortar or matrix level and the concrete level. The elasto-viscoplastic behavior of individual microstructural phases of the matrix a...
متن کاملPrediction of structural forces of segmental tunnel lining using FEM based artificial neural network
To judge about the performance of designed support system for tunnels, structural forces i.e. peak values of axial and shear forces and moments are critical parameters. So in this study, at first a complete database using finite element method was prepared. Then, a model of artificial neural network (ANN) using multi-layer perceptron was developed to estimate lining structural forces. Sensitivi...
متن کاملMultiscale analysis of shear failure of thick-walled hollow cylinder in dry sand
A novel hierarchical multiscale model has been applied to simulate the thick-walled hollow cylinder tests in dry sand and to investigate the corresponding shear failures. The combined finite-element method and discrete-element method (FEM/DEM) model employs the FEM as a vehicle to advance the solution for a macroscopic non-linear boundary value problem incrementally. It is, meanwhile, free of c...
