Finite element method (FEM) suffers from a serious mesh distortion problem when used for high velocity impact analyses. The smooth particle hydrodynamics (SPH) method is appropriate for this class of problems involving severe damages but at considerable computational cost. It is beneficial if the latter is adopted only in severely distorted regions and FEM further away. The coupled smooth particle hydrodynamics - finite element method (SFM) has been adopted in a commercial hydrocode LS-DYNA to study the perforation of Weldox 460E steel and AA5083-H116 aluminum plates with varying thicknesses and various projectile nose geometries including blunt, conical and ogival noses. Effects of the SPH domain size and particle density are studied considering the friction effect between the projectile and the target materials. The simulated residual velocities and the ballistic limit velocities from the SFM agree well with the published experimental data. The study shows that SFM is able to emulate the same failure mechanisms of the steel and aluminum plates as observed in various experimental investigations for initial impact velocity of 170 m/s and higher.

Deformable elastic bodies in viscous and viscoelastic media constitute a large portion of synthetic and biological complex fluids. We present a parallelized 3D-simulation methodology which fully resolves the momentum balance in the solid and fluid do
mains. An immersed boundary algorithm is exploited known as the immersed finite element method (IFEM) which accurately determines the internal forces in the solid domain. The scheme utilized has the advantages of requiring no costly re-meshing, handling finite Reynolds number, as well as incorporating non-linear viscoelasticity in the fluid domain. Our algorithm is designed for computationally efficient simulation of multi-particle suspensions with mixed structure types. The internal force calculation in the solid domain in the IFEM is coupled with a finite volume based incompressible fluid solver, both of which are massively parallelized for distributed memory architectures. We performed extensive case studies to ensure the fidelity of our algorithm. Namely, a series of single particle simulations for capsules, red blood cells, and elastic solid deformable particles were conducted in viscous and viscoelastic media. All of our results are in excellent quantitative agreement with the corresponding reported data in the literature which are based on different simulation platforms. Furthermore, we assess the accuracy of multi-particle simulation of blood suspensions (red blood cells in plasma) with and without platelets. Finally, we present the results of a novel simulation of multiple solid deformable objects in a viscoelastic medium.
Unfitted finite element techniques are valuable tools in different applications where the generation of body-fitted meshes is difficult. However, these techniques are prone to severe ill conditioning problems that obstruct the efficient use of iterat
ive Krylov methods and, in consequence, hinders the practical usage of unfitted methods for realistic large scale applications. In this work, we present a technique that addresses such conditioning problems by constructing enhanced finite element spaces based on a cell aggregation technique. The presented method, called aggregated unfitted finite element method, is easy to implement, and can be used, in contrast to previous works, in Galerkin approximations of coercive problems with conforming Lagrangian finite element spaces. The mathematical analysis of the new method states that the condition number of the resulting linear system matrix scales as in standard finite elements for body-fitted meshes, without being affected by small cut cells, and that the method leads to the optimal finite element convergence order. These theoretical results are confirmed with 2D and 3D numerical experiments.
For conventional smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH), obtaining the static solution of a problem is time-consuming. To address this drawback, we propose an efficient dynamic relaxation method by adding large artificial-viscosity-based damping into
the momentum conservation equation. Then, operator splitting methods are introduced to discretize the added viscous term for relaxing the time-step limit. To further improve the convergence rate, a random-choice strategy is adopted, in which the viscous term is imposed randomly rather than at every time step. In addition, to avoid the thread-conflict induced by applying shared-memory parallelization to accelerate implicit method, a splitting cell-linked list scheme is devised. A number of benchmark tests suggest that the present method helps systems achieve equilibrium state efficiently.
In this paper, we present a simple artificial damping method to enhance the robustness of total Lagrangian smoothed particle hydrodynamics (TL-SPH). Specifically, an artificial damping stress based on the Kelvin-Voigt type damper with a scaling facto
r imitating a von Neumann-Richtmyer type artificial viscosity is introduced in the constitutive equation to alleviate the spurious oscillation in the vicinity of the sharp spatial gradients. After validating the robustness and accuracy of the present method with a set of benchmark tests with very challenging cases, we demonstrate its potentials in the field of bio-mechanics by simulating the deformation of complex stent structures.
The enrichment formulation of double-interpolation finite element method (DFEM) is developed in this paper. DFEM is first proposed by Zheng emph{et al} (2011) and it requires two stages of interpolation to construct the trial function. The first stag
e of interpolation is the same as the standard finite element interpolation. Then the interpolation is reproduced by an additional procedure using the nodal values and nodal gradients which are derived from the first stage as interpolants. The re-constructed trial functions are now able to produce continuous nodal gradients, smooth nodal stress without post-processing and higher order basis without increasing the total degrees of freedom. Several benchmark numerical examples are performed to investigate accuracy and efficiency of DFEM and enriched DFEM. When compared with standard FEM, super-convergence rate and better accuracy are obtained by DFEM. For the numerical simulation of crack propagation, better accuracy is obtained in the evaluation of displacement norm, energy norm and the stress intensity factor.
