Refined layer-wise models for nonlocal analysis of magneto-electro-elastic plates

Size-dependent theories of continuum mechanics are an important tool for structural and material modeling in engineering applications, with particular regard to those involving micro- and nano-scales. Among various approaches proposed in the literature to account for the effect of the microstructure via continuum models, the Eringen’s nonlocal elasticity model incorporates important features of material behavior via a differential stress-strain relationship involving a scale coefficient, or characteristic length, depending on the material microstructure [1]. In the framework of Eringen’s nonlocal elasticity, plate theories have been reformulated for homogeneous and multilayered configuratio…

IL CONTENUTO IN ABVT DURANTE IL PROCESSO DI MATURAZIONE DELLA BOTTARGA DI TONNO

Abstract In the past few years the alimentary consumptions have not shown signs of resumption and the fish field has endured not only one concentration of the consumptions but also the competition of the Countries Emergents . In this phase of stall in the sales and a market of remarkable competitive pushes, the attention of the producers has been that one to increase sale politics above all heading at the quality and the voluntary certification of product. The botargo of tuna it is a product that is lend to this politics in how much high target of the consumers. Between several the parameters of appraisal of the quality of the products fish sure the content in basic nitrogen flown them tota…

A HYBRID VEM/BEM NUMERICAL TECHNIQUE FOR SIMULATING DAMAGE IN COMPOSITE MATERIALS

Composite materials are nowadays widely used in the aerospace sector both for primary and secondary structures for their high mechanical properties and the ability to model them according to project needs. Therefore, accurately predicting material behaviour when subjected to operating loads is extremely important in making the design process more efficient. For this purpose, computational approaches based on continuum damage mechanics have been largely used to study the progressive loss of material integrity due to the propagation and coalescence of microscopic defects. In this contribution, a recently developed hybrid computational technique, which combines the Virtual Element Method (VEM)…
