The present study proposes a computational methodology to obtain the homogenized effective elastic properties of unidirectional fibrous composite materials by using the generalized finite-element method and penalization ...

A general technique to embed non-uniform displacement discontinuities into standard solid finite elements is presented. The technique is based on the decomposition of the kinematic fields into a component related to the ...

We estimate the number |Aλ| of elements on a linear family A of monic polynomials of Fq[T] of degree n having factorization pattern λ:=1λ12λ2nλn. We show that |Aλ| = T(λ)qn-m + O(qn-m-1/2), where T(λ) is the proportion of ...

We address two problems with the structure and representation theory of finite W-algebras associated with general linear Lie algebras. Finite W-algebras can be defined using either Kostant`s Whittaker modules or a quantum ...

The Miles' quasi laminar theory of waves generation by wind in finite depth h is presented. In this context, the fully nonlinear Green-Naghdi model equation is derived for the first time. This model equation is obtained ...
