PhD position on Image-guided Computational Cardiac Mechanics

Submitted by genet on

The Institute for Biomedical Engineering at the University and ETH Zurich, Switzerland and MEDISIM at École Polytechnique/INRIA Paris, France jointly develop Magnetic Resonance image-guided computational models of the heart. As part of our efforts to predict growth and remodeling of the failing heart we are offering a PhD position on image-guided Computational Cardiac Mechanics. See details in attached documents.

A level-set based IGA formulation for topology optimization of flexoelectric materials

Submitted by hd_ghasemi@yahoo.com on

Abstract

This paper presents a design methodology based on a combination of isogeometric analysis (IGA),

level set and point wise density mapping techniques for topology optimization of piezoelectric /

flexoelectric materials. The fourth order partial differential equations (PDEs) of flexoelectricity,

which require at least C 1 continuous approximations, are discretized using Non-Uniform Rational

B-spline (NURBS). The point wise density mapping technique with consistent derivatives is

Time Integration Schemes for 2D Dynamic Crack Propagation

Submitted by abbhuiya on

1. Is there anyone familiar/working with the time integration schemes for 2D dynamic crack propagation in XFEM? I would like to discuss some of the issues I am facing. I will really appreciate any kind of help/suggestions! 

2. I tried to implement the time integration scheme proposed by Combescure et. al (An energy-conserving scheme for dynamic crack growth using the extended finite element method). But I am not sure about some of the strategies they are following in that paper. Anyone can clarify some of the questions I have?
