A four-noded quadrilateral element for composite laminated plates/shell using the refined zigzag theory
(2012-06)
External research report
Open AccessA new bilinear 4-noded quadrilateral element (called QLRZ) for the analysis of composite laminated and sandwich plates/shells based on the refined zigzag theory (RZT) proposed by Tessler et al. [1] is presented. The element ... -

Reflexiones sobre el tránsito de la idea al producto en el entorno de la Escuela de Caminos de Barcelona
(2011)
External research report
Open AccessSe presentan unas reflexiones sobre el ciclo que las ideas recorren desde que surgen en un entorno universitario hasta que se transforman en un producto industrial. Se concretan estas reflexiones en el contexto de la Escuela ... -
The cycle of ideas in research development and technology transfer
(2011)
External research report
Open AccessWhen people talks about research, development and technology transfer (RTD in short) and commercial industrial activities, it is quite usual to mix up objectives, resources and responsibilities. There is a growing opinion, ... -
Explicit dynamic analysis of thin membrane structures
(2011-02)
External research report
Open AccessAn explicit dynamic structural solver developed at CIMNE for the analysis of parachutes is presented. The canopy fabric has a negligible out-of-plane stiffness, therefore its numerical study presents important challenges. ... -
El ciclo de las ideas en la I+D+i
(2011-03)
External research report
Open AccessCuando se habla de la investigación, el desarrollo tecnológico y la innovación (I+D+I en siglas, que yo escribo todas en mayúsculas [1]) es frecuente confundir fines, medios y responsabilidades. La última moda parece que ... -
Analysis of fluid soil-structure interaction problems with the particle finite element method (PFEM)
(2012)
External research report
Open AccessWe present some developments in the Particle Finite Element Method (PFEM) for analysis of coupled problems in mechanics involving fluid-soil-structure interaction (FSSI). The PFEM uses an updated Lagrangian description to ... -
A finite calculus formulation of the level set equation
(2003-09)
External research report
Open AccessA finite calculus formulation of the level set equation is presented. Quadratic Galerkin finite elements are used for spatial discretization. A unique stabilization parameter is computed. A time stabilization parameter ... -
Evolutionary methods for optimal shape design
(2005-06)
External research report
Open AccessAn optimization code called Optima has been developed at the International Centre for Numerical Methods in Engineering (CIMNE). This report validates two reputably robust Evolutionary Algorithms available in Optima and ... -

A neural networks approach to aerofoil noise prediction
(2009)
External research report
Open AccessA neural network noise prediction model for a turbulent boundary layer noise mechanism has been created using a feed forward multilayer perceptron and a noise spectrum database collected from a family of NACA 0012 areofoils. ... -
Melting and spread of polymers in fire with the particle finite element method
(2009)
External research report
Open AccessA new computational procedure for analysis of the melting and flame spread of polymers under fire conditions is presented. The method, termed Particle Finite Element Method (PFEM), combines concepts from particle-based ...
