Abstract: We introduce an Eulerian approach for problems involving one or more soft solids immersed in a fluid, which permits mechanical interactions between all phases. The reference map variable is exploited to simulate finitedeformation ...

Abstract: One of the most effective means of developing engineers as managers is to encourage their active involvement in key decision‐making areas linked to the financial implications of engineering operations. Performance budgeting ...

Abstract: Membrane structures have been used since the earliest of times. Until recently, their analysis has relied chiefly on trial and error; however, modern methods of analysis are evolving. The ...

Abstract: Small unmanned/uninhabited aerial vehicles (UAVs) are quickly becoming a cost-effective alternative for mapping and volumetrics, particularly for small- to medium-sized earthwork projects. However, the accuracy of ...

Abstract: Biomechanical preconditioning of biological specimens by cyclic loading is routinely done presumably to stabilize properties prior to the main phase of a study. However, no prior studies have ...
