A Finite Element/Finite Volume Method for Dam-Break Flows over Deformable Beds (2018)
Journal Article
Alghosoun, A., Osman, A., & Seaid, M. (2018). A Finite Element/Finite Volume Method for Dam-Break Flows over Deformable Beds. https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.1474968

A coupled two-layer finite volume/finite element method was proposed for solving dam-break flow problem over deformable beds. The governing equations consist of the well-balanced two-layer shallow water equations for the water flow and a linear elast...

Characterizing excitability of Lamb waves generated by electromagnetic acoustic transducers with coupled frequency domain models (2018)
Journal Article
Wang, S., Huang, S., Wang, Q., Wang, Z., & Zhao, W. (2019). Characterizing excitability of Lamb waves generated by electromagnetic acoustic transducers with coupled frequency domain models. Ultrasonics, 93, 71-80. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ultras.2018.10.013

Electromagnetic acoustic transducers (EMATs) are versatile non-contact ultrasonic transducers with relatively low transduction efficiency. A fundamental problem not answered completely yet is how the structure of an EMAT influences the generation of...
