starting from two-dimensional (2d) equations of motion, discretized formulations for transient behavior of soil-structure interaction problems have been derived. two different dynamic infinite elements taking into account single and two-wave types are presented in transformed space. by coupling the infinite elements with standard finite elements, an ordinary finite element procedure is used for...

in this paper we study right $n$-engel group elements‎. ‎by modifying a group constructed by newman and nickel‎, ‎we construct‎, ‎for each integer $ngeq 5$‎, ‎a 2-generator group $g =langle a‎, ‎brangle$ with the property that $b$ is a right $n$-engel‎ ‎element but where $[b^k,_n a]$ is of infinite order when $knotin {0‎, ‎1}$‎.

numerical analysis of the dam-reservoir systems including fluid-structure interaction, by finite element method has some complexities especially for the semi-infinite reservoirs. however, similar to the other fem program the ansys is included some difficulties in the modeling of the semi-infinite domains, such as the dam reservoirs. in this paper a new method is proposed to remedy this problem....

analysis of the stresses, displacements, and horizontal strains of the ground subsidence due to underground excavation in rocks can be accomplished by means of a hybridized higher order indirect boundary element/finite difference (be/fd) formulation. a semi-infinite displacement discontinuity field is discretized (numerically) using the cubic displacement discontinuity elements (i.e. each highe...
