A Bayesian regularization-backpropagation neural network model for peeling computations
Saipraneeth Gouravaraju, Jyotindra Narayan, Roger A. Sauer +1
Bayesian regularization-backpropagation neural network (BR-BPNN) model is employed to predict some aspects of the gecko spatula peeling viz. the variation of the maximum normal and…
On topology optimization of large deformation contact-aided shape morphing compliant mechanisms
Prabhat Kumar, Roger A. Sauer, Anupam Saxena
A topology optimization approach for designing large deformation contact-aided shape morphing compliant mechanisms is presented. Such mechanisms can be used in varying operating co…
Contact with coupled adhesion and friction: Computational framework, applications, and new insights
Janine C. Mergel, Julien Scheibert, Roger A. Sauer
Contact involving soft materials often combines dry adhesion, sliding friction, and large deformations. At the local level, these three aspects are rarely captured simultaneously,…
Isogeometric continuity constraints for multi-patch shells governed by fourth-order deformation and phase field models
Karsten Paul, Christopher Zimmermann, Thang X. Duong +1
This work presents numerical techniques to enforce continuity constraints on multi-patch surfaces for three distinct problem classes. The first involves structural analysis of thin…
