Abstract: In this paper, a shell finite element formulation to analyze highly deformable shell structures composed of homogeneous rubber-like materials is presented. The element is a triangular shell ...

Design and analysis of structures made of advanced materials depend on the characterization and behavioral modeling of the materials to be used for assessment of the structural deformation and ...

ABSTRACT: This paper presents a nonlinear micropolar nonclassical mathematical continuum theory for finite deformation/finite strain deformation physics of compressible thermoviscoelastic solids based ...

Abstract: Tendon-driven continuum robots (TDCRs) have received widespread attention in the medical domain due to their slender shape and flexibility. Modeling the dynamics of TDCRs involves continuum ...

FElupe is a Python 3.10+ finite element analysis package focusing on the formulation and numerical solution of nonlinear problems in continuum mechanics of solid bodies. This package is intended for ...

ABSTRACT: The isotropic continuum stored energy (CSE) functional, fully combined with the Poisson function, has been applied to constitutively model compressible as well as incompressible rubberlike ...

Figure 1 Schematic diagram of a nonlinear metasurface composed of asymmetric meta-atoms based on guided mode resonance and bound states in the continuum. Nonlinear optics is a branch of optics that ...

ContinuumMechanicsBase.jl is the core interface for the definitions of quantities in Continuum Mechanics. The aim of the package is to have a standardized interface for developing various linear and ...
