Reliability-based Topology Optimization using Large Deviation Theory
Maryam Maghazeh, Ayyappan Unnikrishna Pillai, Mohammad Masiur Rahaman +1
Reliability-based topology optimization (RBTO) requires repeated estimation of small failure probabilities and their gradients, making conventional nested Monte Carlo approaches co…
Level set-based topology optimization of micropolar solids under thermo-mechanical loading
Mayank Shekhar, Ayyappan Unnikrishna Pillai, Subhayan De +1
We propose a novel level set-based topology optimization for micropolar solids subjected to thermo-mechanical loading. To capture the size effects, we have incorporated the microst…
A phase-field model for thermo-mechanical fracture with an open-source implementation of it using Gridap in Julia
Ved Prakash, Akash Kumar Behera, Mohammad Masiur Rahaman
In this article, we propose a thermodynamically consistent phase-field model for thermo-mechanical fracture and provide an open-source implementation of the proposed model using a…
An open-source implementation of a phase-field model for brittle fracture using Gridap in Julia
Mohammad Masiur Rahaman
This article proposes an open-source implementation of a phase-field model for brittle fracture using a recently developed finite element toolbox, Gridap in Julia. The present work…
An accelerometer-only algorithm for determining the acceleration field of a rigid body, with application in studying the mechanics of mild Traumatic Brain Injury
Mohammad Masiur Rahaman, Wenqiang Fang, Alice Lux Fawzi +2
We present an algorithm for determining the acceleration field of a rigid body using measurements from four tri-axial accelerometers. The acceleration field is an important quantit…
