Sentence examples for non-linear interfaces from inspiring English sources

After a preliminary analysis performed on a unit cell meshed by means of elastic FEs and non-linear interfaces, macroscopic moment curvature diagrams so obtained are implemented at a structural level, discretizing masonry walls by means of rigid triangular elements and non-linear interfaces.

The non-linear behavior so obtained is then implemented at a structural level in a novel FE non-linear code, relying on an assemblage of rigid infinitely resistant six-noded wedge elements and non-linear interfaces, exhibiting deterioration of the mechanical properties.

This paper presents a 3D non-linear interface element able to compute SSI based on the "macro-element" concept.

A finite element model was developed using thick-layered shell elements to model the composite laminates and non-linear interface elements to simulate the through thickness reinforcements.

The 2D finite element model includes a continuum cracking model for the masonry material and a non-linear interface accounting for the soil and foundation stiffness.

A non-linear interface law is adopted, taking into account non-linear behavior of concrete cover and adhesive subject to high shear stresses.

Furthermore, in order to numerically describe the bond behaviour of the specimens tested, non-linear interface laws were calibrated starting from the debonding load and the measured strains along the GFRP for various loading levels.

We impose the Fourier boundary condition at the top surface, a non-linear Tresca interface condition at the bottom one and Dirichlet boundary conditions on the top and the lateral parts.

We consider the Dirichlet boundary conditions on (overline{Gamma }_{1}^{varepsilon }cupoverline{Gamma}_{L}^{varepsilon}), where (overline{Gamma}_{L}^{varepsilon}) is the lateral one, the Fourier boundary condition at the top surface (overline{Gamma}_{1}^{varepsilon}), finally, a non-linear Tresca interface condition at the bottom one ω.
