Towards automating the finite element method: a test-bed for soft computing
نویسندگان
چکیده
A program to automate the finite element method (FEM) using various soft-computing techniques is presented. The overall program is discussed, and the implementations of three specific sub-problems (mesh placement, node numbering, and adaptive meshing) are described. It is also argued that the overall architecture of an “intelligent finite element package” can serve as a “test-bed” for many soft-computing techniques. © 2003 Elsevier Science B.V.

Automating the Finite Element Method: A Test-Bed for Soft Computing
This paper is an interim report on a programme to automate the nite element method. The overall programme is discussed, and the implementations of three speciic sub-problems (node numbering, mesh placement, and adaptive meshing) are described. It is also argued that the overall architecture of an "intelligent nite element package" can serve as a \test-bed" for many soft-computing techniques. Th...
متن کاملNumerical Simulation of the Hydrodynamics of a Two-Dimensional Gas—Solid Fluidized Bed by New Finite Volume Based Finite Element Method
n this work, computational fluid dynamics of the flow behavior in a cold flow of fluidized bed is studied. An improved finite volume based finite element method has been introduced to solve the two-phase gas/solid flow hydrodynamic equations. This method uses a collocated grid, where all variables are located at the nodal points. The fluid dynamic model for gas/solid two-phase flow is based on ...
متن کاملEffect of Bed and Crack on the Natural Frequency for the Timoshenko Beam Using Finite Element Method
In this study, the natural frequencies and mode shapes of beams without cracks and cracked Timoshenko beams is calculated with different boundary conditions using finite element method. The energy method is used to solve the equations. Hardness and softness matrices for Timoshenko beam without crack are obtained by solving the potential and kinetic energy equations. Then for investigation of cr...
متن کاملModeling of Tactile Detection of an Artery in a Soft Tissue by Finite Element Analysis
Nowadays, one of the main problems encountered in minimally invasive surgery and telesurgery is the detection of arteries in tissue. In this study, for the first time, tactile detection of an artery in tissue and distinguishing it from the tumor has been modeled by finite element method. In this modeling, three 2D models of tissue have been created: tissue, tissue including a tumor, and tissue ...
متن کاملFree vibration analysisof soft-core composite-faced sandwich plates using three-dimensional finite element method
In this paper, natural frequencies of the sandwich plates with soft flexible core and composite face sheets are obtained. Three-Dimensional (3D) finite element method (FEM) is used for constructing and analyzing of the sandwich plates to obtain their natural frequencies. Continuity conditions for transverse shear stresses at the interfaces as well as transverse flexibility and transverse normal...
