Article
MultiFEBE integrates multiple finite element and boundary element models for solving linear static and time harmonic multi-domain interaction problems within the field of computational mechanics. It allows to couple bounded or unbounded two- and three-dimensional continuum inviscid fluids, elastic solids or poroelastic media with beam and shell str...
Article
This paper presents the results of a study on the dynamic and seismic response of the support structures of three reference Offshore Wind Turbines (OWT) of increasing rated power, founded to the seabed through monopile foundations. Thus, the structural behaviour of the NREL 5 MW, IEA Wind 10 MW and IEA Wind 15 MW reference OWTs under seismic input...
Article
The paper presents a Winkler‐based numerical model for the analysis of the dynamic response of caisson foundations. The model allows the evaluation of the impedance functions and of the foundation input motion (FIM), which can be used in the framework of the substructure approach to compute inertial soil‐foundation superstructure interaction analys...
Article
Full-text available
Piles and suction caissons are the most common foundation solutions for fixed Offshore Wind Turbines at intermediate water depths. They are generally used as a single element, presenting large diameters and short aspect ratios. These specific dimensions drastically differ from the ones of classical applications (offshore platforms, bridges, tall bu...
Article
Full-text available
In common engineering practice, foundation–soil–foundation interaction of shallow foundations is frequently ignored. This is presumably for cost/benefit reasons, since computationally demanding finite-element and/or boundary element models are required for that purpose, and its effects are usually assumed to be negligible. In this sense, the presen...
Article
Full-text available
Boundary element method formulations usually rely eventually on the calculation of weakly singular integrals, and hence robust and efficient algorithms for their evaluation are desirable. This paper proposes a numerical scheme based on a conformal polar transformation, four novel non-linear angular transformations, and a subdivision pattern which a...
Article
The potential use of pile barriers as a ground vibration mitigation measure is analysed through an efficient numerical model. The soil is modelled as an elastic half space, using the reciprocity theorem and specific Green’s functions for the layered half space, while the piles are treated as beam elements. After benchmarking the proposed model agai...
Article
Full-text available
Offshore Wind Turbine (OWT) support structures need to satisfy different Limit States (LS) such as Ultimate LS (ULS), Serviceability LS, Fatigue LS and Accidental LS. Furthermore, depending on the turbine rated power and the chosen design (all current designs are soft-stiff), target natural frequency requirements must also be met. Most of these cal...
Article
The effects of considering the tangential tractions that act on the soil-pile interface in the estimation of the pile seismic response are studied through a Beam on Dynamic Winkler Foundation model, which includes the distributed moments produced by the rotation of the pile cross-section and the action of the incident field. The performance of the...

Article
Full-text available
Stiff wave barriers are capable of reducing the transmission of ground vibrations. Most designs consist of a single vertical wall, although double walls are also being considered. This paper investigates the shape optimization (position, inclination, length and thickness) of these topologies in a two-dimensional setting, for a point source and a po...
Article
Full-text available
This paper is concerned with a three-dimensional time harmonic model of open shell structures buried in poroelastic soils. It combines the dual boundary element method (DBEM) for treating the soil and shell finite elements for modelling the structure, leading to a simple and efficient representation of buried open shell structures. A new fully regu...
Article
Full-text available
This paper is concerned with the vibration isolation efficiency analysis of total or partially buried thin walled wave barriers in poroelastic soils. A two-dimensional time harmonic model that treats soils and structures in a direct way by combining appropriately the conventional Boundary Element Method (BEM), the Dual BEM (DBEM) and the Finite Ele...
Conference Paper
Full-text available
This paper presents a two-dimensional BEM-FEM model of thin structures for time harmonic analysis when they are surrounded by inviscid fluid, viscoelastic and/or poroelastic media. The thin structures are considered as beams under the Euler-Bernoulli hypotheses, which are discretized by the FEM. The surrounding media are discretized by the BEM, whe...
Article
Full-text available
This paper deals with two-dimensional time harmonic fluid–structure interaction problems when the fluid is at rest, and the elastic bodies have small thicknesses. A BEM–FEM numerical approach is used, where the BEM is applied to the fluid, and the structural FEM is applied to the thin elastic bodies. From the fluid point of view, the thin elastic b...

[ES] En problemas de interés y con geometrías complejas, la solución de las ecuaciones implicadas en el proceso de electrodeposición requiere el uso de métodos numéricos. En este trabajo se propone la formulación e implementación de un modelo de elementos de contorno para la resolución de problemas tridimensionales de electrodeposición.

ES]La interconexión de los sistemas eléctricos de las Islas Canarias, así como la de éstas con el sistema eléctrico continental africano, y por ende con el europeo, supone la mejora de los sistemas eléctricos de las Islas Canarias en múltiples aspectos, de los cuales cabe destacar aquí tres: disminución de los costes de generación, mejora de la cal...
