Reliable
FE simulations of human bones.
Patient-Specific FE-models constructed
from CT-scans are
validated by experimental
observations. Fracture risk laws are sought (funded project).
The
following pictures show a FE analysis of a femur and a typical
experiement of a fresh frozen femur (from left: Nir, Zohar,
Ilan, Romina, Natan).

Generalized
fracture mechanics.
Numerical, analytical and experimental research
on generalized failure
criterion in 3-D mechanical components (funded
project
).
Pictures show a 3P bending experiment and the FE of
a V-notched specimen.

Simulation of a
coupled thermo-finite deformation process (SPS) including
uncertainy quantification.
Simulation of powder sintering under
heat-pressure and electrical field. The aim is to construct a
simulation capability and investigate how uncertainty in
material properties propagate to the simulation results
(funded project in collaboration with German and Israeli
colleagues). |
Generalized edge
stress intensity functions (ESIFs) in three-dimensional
domains.
The elastic solution in the vicinity of a
realistic 3-dimensional edge (as a crack front) is derived and
ESIFs are extracted from FE solution by a quasi-dual function
method (funded project). |

p-FE for
bio-mechanics of arteries:
Incorporating
hyperelastic constitutive models, active response, blood-wall
interaction.
Incorporating hyperelastic constitutive models
(passive and active response) of human arteries in the
framework of p-FEMs.
Performing experiments on human arteries in
active state.
The
following pictures show our experimental equipment and a
high-order FE analysis including active
response.
