A space-time finite element formulation for geometrically exact shear-deformable beams

Ivo Steinbrecher, Alexander Humer

We present a space-time finite element formulation for the transient analysis of geometrically exact shear-deformable beams. The formulation treats space and time within a unified…

Mechanical Modeling of Braided Neurovascular Flow Diverters using a Beam-to-Beam and Beam-to-Surface Contact Formulation

Martin Frank, Ivo Steinbrecher, Matthias Mayr +1

Braided neurovascular flow diverters are widely used for the endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms, where their mechanical response and final deployed configuration are…

Contact-resolved deployment of the Contour Neurovascular System in patient-specific intracranial aneurysms

Ratnadeep Pramanik, Fina Gießler, Martin Frank +5

While intrasaccular flow disruptors are increasingly used to treat wide-necked intracranial aneurysms (IAs), many patient-specific computational workflows prescribe a pre-seated de…

Modified augmented Lagrangian preconditioning for mixed-dimensional beam-solid coupling

Max Firmbach, Ivo Steinbrecher, Alexander Popp +1

This paper presents modified augmented Lagrangian block preconditioners for the mixed-dimensional coupling of three-dimensional solid bodies with embedded one-dimensional torsion-f…

Mixed Finite Elements for Geometrically Exact Beams using Discontinuous Rotations and Discrete Curvature

Alexander Humer, Ivo Steinbrecher, Astrid Pechstein

We propose a novel mixed finite-element formulation for geometrically exact (Simo--Reissner) beams that introduces the moment vector as additional independent field. The specific m…

A variationally consistent beam-to-beam point coupling formulation for geometrically exact beam theories

Ivo Steinbrecher, Nora Hagmeyer, Christoph Meier +1

Slender beam-like structures frequently occur in engineering applications and often interact at discrete locations through joints or connectors. Accurate modeling of such interacti…

An Embedded Mesh Approach for Isogeometric Boundary Layers in Contact Mechanics

Eugenia Gabriela Loera Villeda, Ivo Steinbrecher, Alexander Popp

This paper proposes a novel discretization workflow for contact problems in which the discretization of the contact interface is decoupled from that of the bulk domain. This separa…
