This practice and experience paper describes a robust C++ implementation of several nonlinear solid 3D deformable object strategies commonly employed in computer graphics, named the Vega FEM simulation library. Deformable models supported include co-rotational linear FEM elasticity, Saint-Venant Kirchhoff FEM model, mass-spring system, and invertible FEM models: neo-Hookean, Saint-Venant Kirchh...

For multi-scale simulations, the quality of the input data as well as the quality of algorithms and computing environments will strongly impact the intermediate results, the final outcome, and the performance of the simulation. To date, little attention has been paid on understanding the impact of quality of data (QoD) on such multi-scale simulations. In this paper, we present a critical analys...

We focus on the efficient parallel processing of meshes from biomolecular data so that they can be subsequently used for FEM simulation. All mesh processing about refinements and coherent indexations are applied in parallel. The simplices of the mesh are needed for the application in FEM having higher polynomial degrees. For biomolecular data, the only inputs are the atom coordinates, the van d...

Induction motor is the most popular load in the industry, it is very important to study about the effects of voltage quality on induction motor performance. One of the most important voltage quality problems in power system is voltage unbalance. This paper evaluates and compares two methods including finite element method (FEM) and equivalent electrical circuit simulation for investigation ...

springback is one of the most common and important issues in metal forming area. due to it depends on variety of parameters, it is hard to predict. hence, in this paper, the effect of continuum damage mechanics (cdm) based on the lemaitre isotropic unified damage lawon springback was investigated. swift’s hardening law was employed to describe isotropic hardening behavior.the result showed cons...

concrete deformation due to temperature and moisture condition will always develop simultaneously and interactively. the environmentally (hygral and thermally) induced stress and deformation are essential to concrete durability. to simulate the deformation of concrete caused by the coupling effect of temperature and moisture, a numerical simulation approach is proposed comprising analytical pro...

BACKGROUND The finite element method (FEM) has been used to simulate cardiac and hepatic radiofrequency (RF) ablation. The FEM allows modeling of complex geometries that cannot be solved by analytical methods or finite difference models. In both hepatic and cardiac RF ablation a common control mode is temperature-controlled mode. Commercial FEM packages don't support automating temperature cont...

Numerical simulation of shielding effectiveness (SE) of a perforated shielding enclosure is carried out, using the finite element method (FEM). Possibilities of model definitions and differences between 2D and 3D models are discussed. An important part of any simulation is verification of the model results—here the simulation result are verified in terms of convergence of the model in dependenc...
