Interactive simulation of multi-material deformable models. / CUHK electronic theses & dissertations collectionJanuary 2007 (has links)
Based on the expression specifying the deformation of a multi-component object, a component-based condensation method is developed. This further reduces the size of the matrix to be inverted from the total number of unknown displacements to the number of unknown displacements with changing boundary condition. To speed up the construction of matrices, a maximal matrix technology is proposed. By categorizing the changes in boundary conditions, three fast update strategies on matrix inverse are introduced. Based on the maximal matrix technology and the matrix inverse update strategy, eight easily-formed characteristic matrices are defined to enhance the computation speed further. / In this thesis, an algorithm is developed for simulating the deformation of multiple objects with different material properties using the boundary element method. By tessellating the surface of a geometric model into elements, classifying all the element nodes into different groups with different attributes, and partitioning the stiffness matrix into several sub-matrices according to these attributes, a compact expression about the unknown variables is deduced. In this expression, the dimension of the system matrix has been effectively reduced compared with the traditional method. This expression shows that the deformation of a multi-component object can be simulated in a way similar to that of a single-component object. / Research on the real-time deformation of elastic models has captured wide attention and gained considerable achievement in the past two decades. Most related works focus on developing efficient ways to simulate the behavior of a single-component elastic object. However, objects are usually made up of multiple components with different material properties in practice. It is thus essential to develop efficient techniques for modeling objects which are composed of more than one material. / To make the proposed accelerated algorithm more applicable, a method for simulating the deformation of multi-component models with non-matching interfaces is developed. By applying the interpolation and extrapolation methods, the displacement data can be transferred between non-conforming interfaces. With the application of the energy conservation principle, a relationship between the internal forces on different surfaces can also be established. Together with the force equilibrium conditions and displacement compatibility conditions over the common faces of objects, the deformation of models composed of multi-material components with non-matching interfaces can be simulated. During the application of the linear interpolation method, when the mesh densities on the interfaces of the neighboring components are not the same, unexpected phenomena arise in the simulation process because of this disparity. A traction super-imposition method is adopted to enforce the force constraints on the interface. Experiments showed that this approach produces the correct results. / Zhou, Aifang. / "August 2007." / Adviser: Keh Chuen Hui. / Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 69-02, Section: B, page: 1299. / Thesis (Ph.D.)--Chinese University of Hong Kong, 2007. / Includes bibliographical references (p. 144-155). / Electronic reproduction.

Mathematical and computational modelling of ultrasound elasticity imagingSouthern, James Alastair January 2006 (has links)
In this thesis a parameter recovery method for use in ultrasound elasticity imaging is developed. Elasticity imaging is a method for using a series of ultrasound images (and the displacement field between them) to estimate the spatial variation of the stiffness of the tissue being imaged. Currently iterative methods are used to do this: a model of tissue mechanics is assumed and a large number of simulations using varying parameters are compared to the actual displacement field. The aim of this work is to develop a solution method that works back from the known displacement field to determine the tissue properties, reducing the number of simulations that must be performed to one. The parameter recovery method is based on the formulation and direct solution of the 2-d linear elasticity inverse problem using finite element methods. The inverse problem is analyzed mathematically and the existence and uniqueness of solutions is described for varying numbers of displacement fields and appropriate boundary conditions. It is shown to be hyperbolic (and so difficult to solve numerically) and then reformulated as a minimization problem with hyperbolic Euler-Lagrange equations. A finite element solution of the minimization problem is developed and implemented. The results of the finite element implementation are shown to work well in recovering the parameters used in numerical simulations of the linear elasticity forward problem so long as these are continuous. The method is shown to be robust in dealing with small errors in displacement estimation and larger errors in the boundary values of the parameters. The method is also tested on displacement fields calculated from series of real ultrasound images. The validity of modelling the ultrasound elasticity imaging process as a 2-d problem is discussed. The assumption of plane strain is shown not to be valid and methods for extending the parameter recovery method to 3 dimensions once 3-d ultrasound becomes more widely used are described (but not implemented).

Some problems in anisotropic elasticity / Tristom Peter Cooke.Cooke, Tristrom Peter January 1998 (has links)
Bibliography: leaves 91-95. / x, 155 leaves ; 30 cm. / Title page, contents and abstract only. The complete thesis in print form is available from the University Library. / This thesis contains methods of solution for a number of different problems within the area of the elasticity of anisotropic materials. The first problem concerns the calculation of stresses and strains within a concentric arrangement of cylindrical shells, where each shell has a differing set of anisotropic properties. This has immediate application to the design of yacht masts, and the particular example of the "Moth" yacht mast is considered. The second problem considered is the uncoupled thermo-elastic problem, where a boundary element method is derived for solving the class of boundary value problems governing plane thermo-elastic deformations of isotropic and anisotropic materials. The final class of problems deals with mixed boundary value problems in which the stresses become singular at some points, for instance in elastic problems containing cracks. / Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Adelaide, Dept. of Applied Mathematics, 1998

Elastic-plastic analysis of axisymmetrically loaded isotropic circular and annular plates undergoing large deflectionsAkileh, Aiman R. 01 January 1986 (has links)
The concept of load analogy is used in the elastic and elastic-plastic analysis of isotropic circular and annular plates undergoing moderately large deflection. The effects of the nonlinear terms of lateral displacement and the plastic strains are considered as additional fictitious lateral loads, edge moments, and in-plane forces acting on the plate. The solution of an elastic or elastic-plastic Von Karman type plate is hence reduced to a set of two equivalent elastic plate problems with small displacements, namely, a plane problem in elasticity and a linear elastic plate bending problem. The method of finite element is employed to solve the plane stress problem. The large deflection solutions are then obtained by utilizing the solutions of the linear bending problems through an iterative numerical scheme. The flow theory of plasticity incorporating a Von Mises layer yield criterion and the Prandtl-Reuss associated flow rule for strain hardening materials is employed in this approach.
