Bend-Twist Coupled Carbon-Fiber Laminate Beams: Fundamental Behavior and Applications
Material-induced bend-twist coupling in laminated composite beams has seen applications in engineered structures for decades, ranging from airplane wings to turbine blades. Symmetric, unbalanced, carbon fiber laminates ... -
Effects of Flow Shielding and Channeling on Tsunami-Induced Loading of Coastal Structures
Prior efforts to numerically model the complex fluid-structure interactions that occur as tsunami inundations pass through coastal communities have failed to consistently reproduce experimentally-measured flow velocities ... -
Evaluation of Fluid-Driven Debris Impacts in a High-Performance Multi-GPU Material Point Method
Tsunamis, storm surges, landslides, lahars, and avalanches driving groups of debris (e.g. cars, trees, boats, collapsed structures) are complex coinciding hazards. Yet, in recent 3D animated films these events are rendered ...
