Funded Activity Summary

From CAD and digital imaging to fully automatic adaptive 3D analysis. This project aims to develop, directly from computer-aided design models or digital images, an automatic numerical simulation approach for the safety assessment of engineering structures in three dimensions. Underpinning this novel approach is the proposed use of scaled boundary polytope elements and a complementary octree algorithm for mesh generation. Complex loadings are intended to be addressed effectively by the developed adaptive shakedown analysis leading to factors of safety familiar to engineers and directly usable in design. The expected primary outcome is an innovative technology for numerical simulation and the development of an invaluable numerical tool for the effective safety assessment of engineering structures.
