A Book in Honour of D. Roger J. Owen
Article
This work introduces a distributed memory machine and octree-based Finite Element (FE) framework for modeling metal Additive Manufacturing (AM) processes. In this sense, an Adaptive Mesh Refinement (AMR) is us...

Article
This work presents an h-adaptive finite-element (FE) strategy to address the numerical simulation of additive manufacturing (AM) of large-scale parts. The wire-arc additive manufacturing is chosen as the demonstr...
Article
In additive manufacturing (AM), residual stresses and microstructural inhomogeneity are detrimental to the mechanical properties of as-built AM components. In previous studies, the reduction of the residual st...
Article
As strain localization is usually prognostics of localized failure in solids and structures, prediction of its occurrence and quantification of its adverse effects are of both theoretical and practical signifi...
Article
This work analyses the performance of parts built by Additive Manufacturing (AM) using fused filament fabrication (FFF) demonstrating the correlation between the printing orientation and structural performance...
Article
This paper investigates the capacity of solid finite elements with independent interpolations for displacements and strains to address shear, membrane and volumetric locking in the analysis of beam, plate and ...
Article
In this work the strain localization analysis of Hill’s orthotropic plasticity is addressed. In particular, the localization condition derived from the boundedness of stress rates together with Maxwell’s kinem...
Article
In industrial practice, additive manufacturing (AM) processes are often followed by post-processing operations such as heat treatment, subtractive machining, milling, etc., to achieve the desired surface quali...
