DOWNLOAD EBOOKNonlinear Finite Element Analysis and ADINA contains the proceedings of the Fourth ADINA Conference held at Massachusetts Institute of Technology on June 15-17, 1983. Separating the papers presented in the conference as chapters, this book first elucidates the use of ADINA for analysis of mines with explosive fills. Subsequent chapters explore the use of ADINA in soil mechanics; nonlinear shell analysis; analysis of bond between prestressed steel and concrete; determination and simulation of stable crack growth; offshore structures analysis; modeling of traveling-loads and time-dependent masses; and comparison of two slideline methods. Other notable applications of ADINA are also shown.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis monograph describes the numerical analysis of non-linearities in structural mechanics, i.e. large rotations, large strain (geometric non-linearities), non-linear material behaviour, in particular elasto-plasticity as well as time-dependent behaviour, and contact. Based on that, the book treats stability problems and limit-load analyses, as well as non-linear equations of a large number of variables. Moreover, the author presents a wide range of problem sets and their solutions. The target audience primarily comprises advanced undergraduate and graduate students of mechanical and civil engineering, but the book may also be beneficial for practising engineers in industry.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKFinite element analysis has been widely applied to study biomedical problems. This book aims to simulate some common medical problems using finite element advanced technologies, which establish a base for medical researchers to conduct further investigations. This book consists of four main parts: (1) bone, (2) soft tissues, (3) joints, and (4) implants. Each part starts with the structure and function of the biology and then follows the corresponding finite element advanced features, such as anisotropic nonlinear material, multidimensional interpolation, XFEM, fiber enhancement, UserHyper, porous media, wear, and crack growth fatigue analysis. The final section presents some specific biomedical problems, such as abdominal aortic aneurysm, intervertebral disc, head impact, knee contact, and SMA cardiovascular stent. All modeling files are attached in the appendixes of the book. This book will be helpful to graduate students and researchers in the biomedical field who engage in simulations of biomedical problems. The book also provides all readers with a better understanding of current advanced finite element technologies.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKScoliosis is a musculoskeletal abnormality causing complex three dimensional curvatures in the spine. Current surgical treatments for this adolescent spinal deformity are successful but invasive. Potential new treatments that are less invasive are being developed based on altering growth by mechanically redistributing stresses across the vertebral growth plates. In the literature, in vivo and in vitro tests have shown biomechanical changes in the disc and growth plates due to insertion of staple like implants used in these new methods. In order to understand the biomechanics behind these potential new methods, a nonlinear finite element analysis (FEA) is performed and various biomechanical properties of the spinal segment with and without the implant are determinedA three-dimensional FE model of T7-T8 motion segment was developed from a CT scan of a porcine spine and imported to ABAQUS (an FEA software). Various material properties and contact interactions were used from the literature in determining the model that best predicted the available experimental load-displacement curve and the compressive properties of the disc. Bending loads were applied to this FE model to determine the reduction in the motion of the spinal segment. Sensitivity of the implant features were examined against the compressive properties of the disc. Mechanobiological growth models have been partially developed to study various biomechanical factors causing deformities in spine. This available model was utilized in understanding how growth in a normal spine could be influenced due to the presence of these implants.
