Abstract This paper deals with the numerical approximation of biharmonic inverse source problem in an abstract setting which measurement data is finite-dimensional. unified framework particular covers conforming and nonconforming finite element methods (FEMs). The analysed through forward problem. Error estimate for solution derived set-up that applies to Morley FEMs. Since ill-posed, Tikhonov reg...

This paper presents a reconfigurable cable parallel robot, which spatial topology can be reconfigured through managing the branch numbers and the hoisting points of the end-effector. An experimental prototype of the reconfigurable cable parallel robot is designed and developed. A typical configuration of the reconfigurable cable parallel robot is analyzed as a case study. The finite element ana...

saccharomyces cerevisiae (baker’s yeast) can exhibit sustained oscillations during the operation in a continuous bioreactor that adversely affects its stability and productivity. because of heterogeneous nature of cell populations, the cell population balance equation (pbe) can be used to capture the dynamic behavior of such cultures. in this work, an unstructured-segregated model is used for d...

Kinematics combined with detailed element abundances provide a method of analysis of stellar populations that uses as much available information as possible, in contrast to other methods. Here we employ this technique on local A-type horizontal branch stars in an ongoing programme to search for ω Centauri debris among these objects. This led us to discover another group of stars with very simil...

This paper develops and analyzes a finite element method for a nonlinear singular elliptic equation arising from the black hole theory in the general relativity. The nonlinear equation, which was derived and analyzed by Huisken and Ilmanen in [14], represents a level set formulation for the inverse mean curvature flow describing the evolution of a hypersurface whose normal velocity equals the r...

There is a need to provide haptic and tactile feedback to surgeons during robot-assisted minimally invasive surgery (RMIS). Such feedback is also essential for palpation based diagnostic during cancer removal using MIS. There have been recent efforts at developing a mechatronic finger to mimic some of the palpation capabilities of a human finger. These mechatronic fingers typically record force...

In this work, an inverse finite element formulation was modified for considering material anisotropy in obtaining blank shape and forming severity of deep drawn orthotropic parts. In this procedure, geometry of final part and thickness of initial blank sheet were known. After applying ideal forming formulations between material points of initial blank and final shape, an equation system was obt...

In this paper we present an interactive method for simulating deformable objects using skeletal constraints. We introduce a two-way coupling of a finite element model and a skeleton that is attached to this model. The skeleton pose is determined via inverse kinematics. The target positions of joints are either given by user interactions or forces imposed by the surrounding deformable body. The ...
