Finite element methods (FEM) have become indispensable tools for simulating wave propagation phenomena across a range of applications, from acoustics and electromagnetics to earthquake modelling. At ...

An overview of the fundamentals of Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and its importance in aerospace component design. A look at how FEA software enables aerospace engineers to simulate the results of ...

We develop a framework for applying high-order finite element methods to singularly-perturbed elliptic and parabolic differential systems that utilizes special quadrature rules to confine spurious ...

Fracture mechanics and finite element analysis represent two interrelated domains that fundamentally advance our understanding of material failure. The discipline of fracture mechanics addresses the ...

Linear finite-element analysis does not provide enough information about buckling to make correct design decisions, especially when designing lightweight components ...

One of the most important steps in the evolution of modern mammals was the development of highly sensitive hearing. The middle ear of mammals, with an eardrum and several small bones, allows us to ...
