    Notes: In this paper we discuss the implementation of parallel multigrid methods on unstructured locally refined meshes for 2D linear elasticity calculations. The problem of rebalancing the workload of the processors during execution of the program is discussed in detail and a load balancing algorithm suited for hierarchical meshes is proposed. For large problems the efficiency per multigrid iteration ranges from 65% on 64 processors in the locally refined case to 85% on 256 processors in the uniformly refined case. All calculations were carried out on a CRAY T3D machine. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Effective methods leading to automated adaptive numerical solutions to geometrically non-linear shell-type problems are studied in this work. In particular, procedures for improving the accuracy, the reliability and the computational efficiency of the finite element solutions are of primary interest here. This is addressed using h-adaptive mesh refinement based on a posteriori error estimation, self-adaptive methods in global incremental/iterative processes, as well as smart algorithms and heuristic approaches based on methods of knowledge engineering. Seemless integration of h-adaptive finite element methods with adaptive step-length control makes it possible to maintain a prescribed accuracy while maintaining the solution efficiency without user intervention throughout the process of a non-linear analysis. Several examples illustrate the merit and potential of the approach studied herein and confirm the feasibility of developing an automatic adaptive environment for geometrically non-linear analysis of shell structures.

    Notes: In this paper we investigate an approach for a posteriori error estimation based on recovery of an improved stress field. The qualitative properties of the recovered stress field necessary to obtain a conservative error estimator, i.e. an upper bound on the true error, are given. A specific procedure for recovery of an improved stress field is then developed. The procedure can be classified as Superconvergent Patch Recovery (SPR) enhanced with approximate satisfaction of the interior equilibrium and the natural boundary conditions. Herein the interior equilibrium is satisfied a priori within each nodal patch. Compared to the original SPR-method, which usually underestimates the true error, the present approach gives a more conservative estimate. The performance of the developed error estimator is illustrated by investigating two plane strain problems with known closed-form solutions. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: A probabilistic model for stability analysis of a deepwater gravity-based platform foundation is defined, based on theory for wave loading in conjunction with conventional slip surface considerations. The model accounts for uncertainties in loading as well as in soil properties, and model uncertainties are also considered. The model is updated through in-service measurements of some of the governing variables, and measurement uncertainties are included. The practical application of the model is illustrated by presentation of calculations for a typical foundation. Probability calculations are performed by first-order reliability methods.

    Description: Author(s): Jon Alm Eriksen, Renaud Toussaint, Knut Jørgen Måløy, Eirik Flekkøy, and Bjørnar Sandnes Experiments on confined two-phase flow systems, involving air and a dense suspension, have revealed a diverse set of flow morphologies. As the air displaces the suspension, the beads that make up the suspension can accumulate along the interface. The dynamics can generate “frictional fingers” of air… [Phys. Rev.

    Description: Author(s): Arne Stormo, Knut Skogstrand Gjerden, and Alex Hansen We study numerically the failure of an interface joining two elastic materials under load using a fiber bundle model connected to an elastic half space.

Flekkøy We perform experiments where air is injected at a constant overpressure P in , ranging from 5 to 250 kPa, into a dry granular medium confined within a horizontal linear Hele-Shaw cell.
