Ansatzfunktionen auf dem logarithmischen Raum: die Log-FE-Methode [Abstract]
(2015-09)
Die Logarithmische Finite-Elemente-Methode (Log-FE-Methode) bietet einen neuartigen Ansatz zur Berechnung von FE-Modellen, insbesondere im Rahmen von Multigrid-Verfahren.
In Multigrid-Verfahren wird eine schnelle und robuste Konvergenz insbesondere durch die Entkopplung der Einflüsse der Freiheitsgrade auf den unterschiedlichen Längenskalen erreicht. Das Näherungsverfahren auf dem groben Netz sollte daher auf einer deutlich gröberen Skala arbeiten und (räumlich) hochfrequente Deformationsanteile vermeiden.

A unified and memory efficient framework for simulating mechanical behavior of carbon nanotubes
(2015-06-01)
Carbon nanotubes possess many interesting properties, which make them a promising material for a variety of applications. In this paper, we present a unified framework for the simulation of the mechanical behavior of carbon nanotubes. It allows the creation, simulation and visualization of these structures, extending previous work by the research group “MISMO” at TU Darmstadt. In particular, we develop and integrate a new matrix-free iterative solving procedure, employing the conjugate gradient method, that drastically ...

Meshing highly regular structures: The case of super carbon nanotubes of arbitrary order
(2015)
Mesh generation is an important step inmany numerical methods.We present the “HierarchicalGraphMeshing” (HGM)method as a novel approach to mesh generation, based on algebraic graph theory.The HGM method can be used to systematically construct configurations exhibiting multiple hierarchies and complex symmetry characteristics. The hierarchical description of structures provided by the HGM method can be exploited to increase the efficiency of multiscale and multigrid methods. In this paper, the HGM method is employed ...
