The purpose of this paper is to investigate the effect of variable amplitude service loading
conditions and wear phenomenon on reliability analysis for rail steel. For this purpose, the …

In this paper, a reliability analysis of fatigue crack growth for a pearlitic Grade 900A rail steel
subject to the growth of multiple cracks is presented. The stress intensity factors (SIFs) at the …

This paper is devoted to study the bending response, free vibration and mechanical buckling
of functionally graded material (FGM) plates based on the scaled boundary finite element …

Application of the scaled boundary finite element method (SBFEM) in free vibration and
transient dynamic problems of the composite magneto-electro-elastic (MEE) cylindrical shell …

In this paper, a novel isogeometric scaled boundary finite element method (IGSBFEM) is
