We present an isogeometric collocation formulation for the Reissner-Mindlin shell problem. After recalling the necessary basics on differential geometry and the shell governing equations, we show that the standard approach ...

In this paper, the isogeometric formulations of the finite element and boundary element methods are applied to the dynamic analysis of thin-walled structures submerged in an infinite, inviscid, and incompressible fluid ...

Coupled fluid-structure interaction simulations of wind turbines have traditionally been considered computationally too expensive to carry out. However, more powerful computers and better solution techniques based on ...

Introduction Overweight and obesity in reproductive aged women is a global problem due to the increased risk of subfertility, pregnancy complications and cardiometabolic diseases. High-intensity interval training and ...

This article presents an isolated single-stage ac–dc high-frequency link full-bridge cycloconverter (HFLC) with high conversion ratio. Despite certain advantages, such topologies gen- erally suffer from transformer leakage ...

The fifth generation (5G) of cellular networks shall host a number of tenants and provide services tailored to meet a wide range of requirements in terms of performance, dependability and security. Network slicing will be ...

This article aims to explain why Danish municipalities usually choose to comply with stadium requirements from the Danish Soccer Association (DBU) even though, in most cases, they do not have the supporter base that could ...

Microstructural evolution of a cold-rolled Al–Mn–Fe–Si alloy during annealing was studied. Except the as-cast variant, two other different homogenizations were considered, one gave a high density of fine dispersiods providing ...

In the industrial production of manganese ferroalloys, incomplete pre-reduction of higher manganese- and iron oxides in the furnace causes an excess consumption of carbon and energy. Pre-treatment of the manganese raw ...
