1. Numerical implementation of a micromechanics-based viscoelastic model for geomaterials with isotropically distributed micro-fractures
Abstract The constitutive behavior of geomaterials is generally affected by the presence at different scales of discontinuity surfaces with different sizes and orientations. According to their mechanical behavior, such discontinuities can be distinguished as cracks or fractures. Fractures are interfaces that can transfer normal and tangential stresses, where

2. Contribution to hierarchical modeling in tunnel design practice
Resumo Esse trabalho apresenta uma análise comparativa entre duas hierarquias de modelos comumente aplicadas no projeto estrutural de túneis: modelos de maciço contínuo e de anel sobre apoios. Primeiramente, as principais características de cada modelo e as interfaces entre ambos são discutidas. Baseado em tais avaliações um procedimento simples é p

3. Towards the Brazilian Space Program Modeling Through the Combination of Stakeholder Theory and System Dynamics Methodology
Abstract: In the last 50 years, Stakeholder (STH) theory has become one of the main instruments of analysis, identification, classification and management of entities in the complex and conflicting corporate environment. In a similar way, System Dynamics (SD) methodology has been used as an instrument for modeling and simulating the dynamics of complex syste

4. An enriched meshless finite volume method for the modeling of material discontinuity problems in 2D elasticity
Abstract A 2D formulation for incorporating material discontinuities into the meshless finite volume method is proposed. In the proposed formulation, the moving least squares approximation space is enriched by local continuous functions that contain discontinuity in the first derivative at the location of the material interfaces. The formulation utilizes sp

5. A Numerical Mode-Matching Method Based on Multiple-Knot Cubic B-Splines Applied to the Analysis of Well-Logging Tools
Abstract The numerical mode-matching (NMM) technique is a very efficient approach to analyze well-logging tools used for hydrocarbon exploration. This problem is typically modeled as a cylindrically layered medium (subterranean formation) including both horizontal and vertical stratifications. In this paper, we present a new NMM formulation based on the use

6. Impact Damage Analysis with Stress Continuity Constraints Fulfilment at Damaged-Undamaged Regions and at Layer Interfaces
Abstract Low-velocity impacts have a relevant importance for safety of laminated and sandwich composite structures, because they are highly susceptible to damage. In this paper, a 3D cost effective zig-zag model is developed in order to efficiently simulate such impacts. It a priori fulfills the continuity of out-of-plane stresses at layer interfaces, the co

7. Study of Continuous Rheological Measurements in Drilling Fluids
Abstract Drilling an oil well involves using drilling fluids that perform cleaning and cooling functions, but that most importantly maintain the fluids of the geological formation contained by hydraulic pressure. A fundamental role in predicting the hydraulic pressure of the well consists of monitoring the fluid’s rheological behavior. This paper summarize

8. Self-Organization in Ionic Liquids: From Bulk to Interfaces and Films
In this contribution we present an overview on the relation between the complex structure of ionic liquids (ILs) and its impact in the field of surface science. The results herein described result mainly from modeling and simulation work carried out at Centro de Química Estrutural, Universidade de Lisboa, complemented in some cases by experimental results o

9. Challenges of the expansive use of Building Information Modeling (BIM) in construction projects
Building information modeling (BIM) is an emerging modeling technology which challenges existing work procedures and practices in the construction industry. In this article we study the challenges, problems and potential expansions of BIM as a tool in the design, construction and operation of buildings. For this purpose the interfaces between different parti

10. Electrochemical and Optical Investigation of Conductive Polymer and MWCNT Nanocomposite Film
Composites of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) and conductive polymer with good uniformity were prepared by electropolymerization. Molecular modeling calculations were carried out for electroactive monomer (OAP) polymerization with density functional theory (DFT) level using 6-311G(d,p) basis set for all atoms and Gaussian 03 program package. The reflec

11. A model for evaluation of effective thermal conductivity of periodic composites with poorly conducting interfaces
This paper presents a new micromechanical extension of the parametric finite-volume theory for evaluation of effective thermal conductivities of periodic unidirectional fiber reinforced composites. Such materials are assumed as composed of repeating unit cells with arbitrary internal architectural arrangements of fiber coated by thin interphase with low ther

12. Uso de Refinamento Adaptativo em Escultura Virtual para CriaÃÃo Livre de Detalhes em Malhas Triangulares / Use of Adaptive Refinement in Virtual Sculpting for Free Insertion of Details in Triangular Meshes
Modelar objetos e personagens virtuais pode ser uma tarefa tediosa e difÃcil em vÃrias situaÃÃes. Um sistema de modelagem ideal deve ser capaz de representar qualquer mudanÃa ou caracterÃstica desejada pelo usuÃrio da forma mais rÃpida e transparente possÃvel, abstraindo toda a complexidade topolÃgica e matemÃtica, permitindo ao modelador concentr
