Rainfall weakens an earth slope in a number of ways. It increases the degree of saturation of
the soil, thereby breaking the bonds created by surface tension between the soil particles …

In this paper a computational approach is presented that is able to forward model complex
structural evolution with multiple intersecting faults that exhibit large relative movement. The …

In this paper, a practical meshfree large deformation method (MFLDM) is proposed for
numerical analysis in geotechnical engineerings, including: soil foundation, slop, dam, etc …

Due to the growing popularity of laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) as a metal additive
manufacturing technique, there is a strong need to be able to accurately predict build …

Mechanized tunneling is characterized by complex interactions between the shield machine
and the surrounding ground during the TBM advancement process. In this paper, a new …

We present projection methods and transfer operations required for adaptive mesh
refinement/coarsening in problems with internal variables. We extend the results of Hennig …

In this paper, an adaptive refinement technique using the scaled boundary finite element
method (SBFEM) is proposed. The salient feature of this technique is that it is not required to …
