Thin shell structures are widely used in high-performance engineering due to their favorable strength-to-weight characteristics and capacity for distributed load-bearing. However, traditional ...

Toughening has always been an important research direction of structure ceramics. The addition of secondary phases to the ceramic matrix to prepare composite ceramics is an effective toughening ...

Second-order shell elements: Meshing the thin band with secondorder-shell elements produces precise curvilinear geometry. There was a time when the task of building a model for finite-element analysis ...
