A parametric model of topological consistency is developed with fault amplitude as a control parameter, and an algorithm for sequential incorporation of weak control points is proposed, replacing the gradient descent with stable two-dimensional finite element interpolation.
The increasing interest in performance-based earthquake engineering (PBEE) is further emphasizing the need for more accurate estimates of large deformations under increasingly higher levels of seismic excitation. In this regard, meshfree methods offer a number of advantages towards this goal. In a pilot effort to intro...

This article addresses the problem of slope stability from two complementary perspectives. On the one hand, it considers practical issues related to improving the efficiency of construction on subsidence soils. On the other hand, since traditional experimental and theoretical methods proved insufficient, it was necessa...

A method for developing global numerical honeycomb models with interpolated physical and mechanical properties of a rock mass is proposed. The methodology is based on transferring data on the physical and mechanical characteristics of the rock mass from the geomechanical block models into the finite element models whil...

This paper develops a finite element method for wave-structure interaction problems arising in the hydroelastic modelling of submerged elastic plates. The approach is formulated for both two-dimensional settings and three-dimensional channels. For the fluid part of the problem, we use a symmetric discontinuous Galerkin...

The two-dimensional free-surface flow of an inviscid and incompressible fluid passing over a triangular hollow at the bottom of a channel is studied in this paper. The flow is considered irrotational and steady. The effect of surface tension is taken into account, while the force of gravity is neglected. The region in...
