Three-dimensional transient complex free surface flows: Numerical simulation of XPP fluid
(2013-05-01)
In this paper we present a finite difference MAC-type approach for solving three-dimensional viscoelastic incompressible free surface flows governed by the eXtended Pom-Pom (XPP) model, considering a wide range of parameters. ...
Application of the natural stress formulation for solving unsteady viscoelastic contraction flows
(Elsevier B.V., 2019-07-01)
We present a numerical scheme for a previously unexploited formulation of the equations for unsteady viscoelastic flow. The formulation aligns the polymer stress along particle paths/streamlines, utilising the characteristic ...
Numerical study of the square-root conformation tensor formulation for confined and free-surface viscoelastic fluid flows
(2016-12-01)
We present a numerical study of a stabilization method for computing confined and free-surface flows of highly elastic viscoelastic fluids. In this approach, the constitutive equation based on the conformation tensor, which ...
GENERALIZED FINITE ELEMENT METHOD ON NONCONVENTIONAL HYBRID-MIXED FORMULATION
(WORLD SCIENTIFIC PUBL CO PTE LTDSINGAPORE, 2012)
The generalized finite element method (GFEM) is applied to a nonconventional hybrid-mixed stress formulation (HMSF) for plane analysis. In the HMSF, three approximation fields are involved: stresses and displacements in ...
Testing viscoelastic numerical schemes using the Oldroyd-B fluid in Newtonian kinematics
(Elsevier B.V., 2020-12-15)
We focus here on using a Newtonian velocity field to evaluate numerical schemes for two different formulations of viscoelastic flow. The two distinct formulations we consider, correspond to either using a fixed basis for ...
Study of a stabilized mixed finite element with emphasis on its numerical performance for strain localization problems
(John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2008-12)
The numerical performance of a stabilized mixed finite-element formulation based on the pressuregradient- projection method (PGP) using equal-order (linear) interpolation is evaluated by solving solid mechanics problems, ...
Thermal performance of a pcm storage unit

Different formulations to solve the giesekus model for flow between two parallel plates
(2021-11-01)
This work presents different formulations to obtain the solution for the Giesekus constitutive model for a flow between two parallel plates. The first one is the formulation based on work by Schleiniger, G; Weinacht, R.J., ...
Determination of the numerical parameters of a continuous damage model for the structural analysis of clay brick masonry
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos (UFSCar), Dept Engenharia Materials, 2012-12-01)
Models based on the continuous damage theory present good responses in representing the nonlinear behavior of reinforced concrete structures with loss of strength and stiffness of the material. However, damage theory is ...
