Soft continuum robot outperforms its rigid counterpart when executing in complicated
environments thanks to its high dexterity of the redundant configuration. Shape control is …

Curved beams with variable curvature can be encountered in many engineering cases, but
continuous and complex changes of the radius and center can lead to challenges for …

Studies on functionally graded (FG) curved microbeam structures are rather rare in the
literature, and we thus present an effective computational approach on the basic …

the two-dimensional viscous wet-steam flow between stationary cascades of a steam turbine …

A strong form-based isogeometric-meshfree moving least-squares collocation (IMMLS-C)
approach is developed for two-dimensional linear elastic fracture problems with contact …

In this paper, the entropy generation is introduced as a criterion to analyze the impact of
variation of expansion rate in a two-dimensional viscous wet-steam flow through stationary …

An effective computational approach that can simultaneously deal with several complexities
in geometries, material properties, and size effects is of non-trivial yet important tasks for the …

This study presents a novel isogeometric Euler–Bernoulli beam formulation for in-plane
dynamic analysis of multi-patch beam structures. The kinematic descriptions involve only …
