In this study, a finite element model was developed to analyze the mechanical behavior of repairing aluminum 2024-T3 structures subjected to complex shear-shear loads using composite patch repair techniques. The study aimed to investigate the effect of different patch sequences on the mechanical behavior of the repaired structure, including the ori...

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is one of the most prominent cardiovascular diseases, with almost 1 in 500 people suffering from it. It is of great importance for this disease to be detected in a timely manner, so that patients can be provided with an adequate therapy. This is also important for monitoring the future development of the disease so that ...

Recent studies have attempted to find methods and techniques that enable the development of heat transfer within thermal transformers. For this purpose, this paper includes a numerical simulation of a non-Newtonian fluid inside a chamber with four hot bodies. The chamber is exposed to a magnetic field of constant and uniform intensity. Also, the up...

The introduction of pressure piping increasingly requires the use of efficient materials which must withstand both high hydrostatic pressures, high mechanical loads and high thermal gradients. At nuclear power plants, piping systems are subjected to high pressures (up to 60 MPa). The occurrence of cracks and their possible spread is one of the seri...

This paper presents a comparative analysis of numerical simulations of blood flow through the left ventricle using SPH (LS-DYNA) and FVM (Ansys Fluent) solvers. Numerical simulations based on SPH and FVM methods can provide a more comprehensive understanding of cardiac blood flow patterns. In Fluent, left ventricle walls were modeled as boundary co...

This paper presents а numerical solution of a non-similar two-dimensional boundary-layer flow over a cylinder. The assumptions and related two-dimensional flow equations are presented. The fourth-order Runge-Kutta method with the backward differentiation formula (BDF) method to separation point is implemented in the numerical solution usin...

Accurate prediction of stress and displacement in plates with central cracks is vital for engineering design safety. However, the impact of finite plate size on stress and displacement distribution is an important factor that has not been fully addressed in previous studies, highlighting the need for further investigation. Thus, this study presents...

In this article we present an experimental and numerical study of the behavior of the boundary layer type viscous flow in the presence of the thermal effect. The flow was held in a three-dimensional field with a uniform infinite velocity in the case of an adiabatic wall with heat input. The presented experimental work was performed in the Thermal L...

The objective of this study is to present numerical aspects related to the implementation of the interaction integral method for the purpose of determining the stress intensity factors in mode I and mixed-mode crack problems of functionally graded materials (FGM) and homogenous materials for a different form of cracking. This numerical development ...

The combined effect of Soret-Dufour, higher-order chemical reaction and variable thermophysical properties on nonlinear thermal and solutal convective flow of a non-Newtonian fluid (Casson nanofluid) over a slanted surface is analyzed. The nonlinear dimensionless equations governing the fluid flow are transformed into ordinary differential equation...
