Mixed Variational Approaches in Nonlinear Continuum Mechanics and Discretization by Finite Element Exterior Calculus
Numerical solution techniques for nonlinear elasticity have been an active area of research for a while. Right from the early days, it was recognized that constructing well-performing FE approximations for nonlinear ... -
Mixing Enhancement Studies on Supersonic Elliptic Sharp Tipped Shallow (ESTS) Lobed Nozzles
(2017-11-22)Rapid mixing and spreading of supersonic jets are two important characteristics in supersonic ejectors, noise reduction in jets and fuel mixing in supersonic combustion. It helps in changing the acoustic and thermal signature ... -
Mode-3 Asymptotic Analysis Around A Crack Embedded In A Ductile Functionally Graded Material
(2009-09-15)Functionally graded materials (FGMs) are composites with continuous material property variations. The distinct interfaces between the reinforcement and the matrix in classical composites are potential damage initiation ... -
A Model For Heat Transfer In A Honey Bee Swarm
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-07-20)During spring, it has been observed that several thousand bees leave their hive, and settle on some object such as a tree branch. Some of the scout bees search for a suitable place where a new hive can be set up, while the ... -
