. The structural strength evaluation of crash boxes is predicted by machine learning in this study. The training data was obtained from the dynamic elastic plastic analysis of the crash box. The input physical quantities are barrier angle, box thickness, material properties and mass equivalent to vehicle weight. The output physical quantity is the reaction force. Buckling occurs in the analysis and different directions of corruptions are one of the most interesting phenomenon from a point of engineering view. We would like to propose an adaptive method for machine learning in structural evaluation that can be used for a wide range of structural evaluations.

. Liquid crystal elastomers (LCEs) are soft materials, which are capable of large deforma-tions induced by temperature changes and ultraviolet irradiation [1]. Therefore, since many years, these materials are under investigation in experimental researches as actuator materials. LCEs arise from a nematic polymer melt, consisting of long and flexible polymer chains as well as oriented and rigid rod-like molecules, the so-called mesogens, by crosslinking. After this process, the flow ability and the orientation of the mesogens is retained. To date, the alignment of LCEs is primarily achieved in thin films. When the orientational order in the film is lost due to temperature changes or ultraviolet irradiation, the LCE film is capable of length changes of 400 percent. In order to numerically simulate LCE materials as actuators in multibody system models by using the finite element method, a continuum formulation is necessary, which include in a thermo-viscoelastic material formulation of the polymer chains the orientation effects of the mesogens. This can be performed by introducing a normalized direction vector as an independent field, and deriving from additional (orientational) balance laws independent differential equations [2]. These differential equations describe the independent rotation of the rigid mesogens connected with the flexible polymer chains. The orientation-dependent stress law of LCEs arises from an anisotropic

. The new Geomiso DNL software is proposed to facilitate the use of isogeometric analysis for nonlinear inelastic dynamic applications. This hybrid software solution combines isogeometric analysis and 3D design with advanced spline techniques, such as NURBS and T-splines. Its dual nature satisfies the rising industrial need for unification of the fields of computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided analysis (CAE), as it eliminates geometric errors by merging geometry design with mesh generation into a single procedure. This paper presents sample nonlinear applications in structural dynamics. Geomiso DNL is seen to handle these situations remarkably well, as the numerical examples exhibit significantly improved accuracy of the results, and reduced computational cost, when compared with finite element software packages. It is argued that Geomiso DNL is a new, more efficient, alternative to FEA software packages. This is the first time ever

. In this study, we investigate a method for accurately representing mechanical anisotropy in a crystal plasticity finite element (FE) analysis using a computational model with a small number of crystal grains to reproduce the rolling texture. We propose a method for extracting the preferred orientation of the rolling texture, construct a computational model using this method, and perform a crystal plasticity FE simulation.

. The time-dependent behaviour of quasi-brittle materials can have a significant effect on ser-viceability and ultimate failure. E.g., in the case of concrete structures, the presence of cracking can evolve, propagate and gradually widen over time, therefore significantly changing the stress state and expected structural response. The development of models that can account for the discrete nature of cracking whilst predicting time-dependent behaviour can be of interest to many practical applications. The discrete strong discontinuity approach (DSDA) has been validated as a reliable approach for sim-ulating the cracking phenomenon by directly embedding the traction-separation constitutive relation within finite elements, therefore enriching standard finite element models with the ability to capture cracks, where material can separate without the need for remeshing. This work presents a generalisation to account for the long-term behaviour of cracked quasi-brittle materials, more specifically creep and shrinkage. To this end, a rate-type creep is first applied through a number of kelvin units; the interaction of the resulting response from the Kelvin chain system, shrinkage, and discrete cracking is developed to obtain a suitable constitutive model for the discrete crack simulations. Finally, the formulation is deployed on a finite element code where the performance of the proposed model is assessed through representative numerical examples.

. In future cities, micrometeorological predictions will be essential to various services such as drone operations. However, the real-time prediction is difficult even by using a super-computer. To re-duce the computation cost, super-resolution (SR) techniques can be utilized, which infer high-resolution images from low-resolution ones. The present paper confirms the validity of three-dimensional (3D) SR for micrometeorology prediction in an urban city. A new neural network is proposed to simultaneously super-resolve 3D temperature and velocity fields. The network is trained using the micrometeorology simulations that incorporate the buildings and 3D radiative transfer. The error of the 3D SR is sufficiently small: 0.14 K for temperature and 0.38 m s − 1 for velocity. The computation time of the 3D SR is negligible, implying the feasibility of real-time predictions for the urban micrometeorology.

. The strength evaluation of structures that requires high reliability, such as power generation facilities, is extremely important. It is necessary to ensure safety under extremely low cycle fatigue caused by earthquakes. However, a highly reliable evaluation method has not yet been developed because of variable fracture toughness due to the constraint effect with large deformation. The crack propagation criterion proposed by the previous study has needed some modification for accurate prediction. In this study, we confirmed whether the crack propagation criterion proposed by previous study can reproduce the fracture behavior of the experiment. Among then, relationship between the number of cycle and crack length, hysteresis loop, reproduction of crack shape were evaluation items.
