The GETMe Mesh Smoothing Framework: A Geometric Way to Quality Finite Element Meshes
by Dimitris Vartziotis Joachim WipperHigh quality meshes play a key role in many applications based on digital modeling and simulation. The finite element method is a paragon for such an approach and it is well known that quality meshes can significantly improve computational efficiency and solution accuracy of this method. Therefore, a lot of effort has been put in methods for improving mesh quality. These range from simple geometric approaches, like Laplacian smoothing, with a high computational efficiency but possible low resulting mesh quality, to global optimization-based methods, resulting in an excellent mesh quality at the cost of an increased computational and implementational complexity. <P><P>The geometric element transformation method (GETMe) aims to fill the gap between these two approaches. It is based on geometric mesh element transformations, which iteratively transform polygonal and polyhedral elements into their regular counterparts or into elements with a prescribed shape. GETMe combines a Laplacian smoothing-like computational efficiency with a global optimization-like effectiveness. The method is straightforward to implement and its variants can also be used to improve tangled and anisotropic meshes. <P><P>This book describes the mathematical theory of geometric element transformations as foundation for mesh smoothing. It gives a thorough introduction to GETMe-based mesh smoothing and its algorithms providing a framework to focus on effectively improving key mesh quality aspects. It addresses the improvement of planar, surface, volumetric, mixed, isotropic, and anisotropic meshes and addresses aspects of combining mesh smoothing with topological mesh modification. <P><P>The advantages of GETMe-based mesh smoothing are demonstrated by the example of various numerical tests. These include smoothing of real world meshes from engineering applications as well as smoothing of synthetic meshes for demonstrating key aspects of GETMe-based mesh improvement. Results are compared with those of other smoothing methods in terms of runtime behavior, mesh quality, and resulting finite element solution efficiency and accuracy. <P><P>Features: <li>Helps to improve finite element mesh quality by applying geometry-driven mesh smoothing approaches. <li>Supports the reader in understanding and implementing GETMe-based mesh smoothing. <li>Discusses aspects and properties of GETMe smoothing variants and thus provides guidance for choosing the appropriate mesh improvement algorithm. <li>Addresses smoothing of various mesh types: planar, surface, volumetric, isotropic, anisotropic, non-mixed, and mixed. <li>Provides and analyzes geometric element transformations for polygonal and polyhedral elements with regular and non-regular limits. <li>Includes a broad range of numerical examples and compares results with those of other smoothing methods.
Getriebekonzepte für Fahrzeuge: Übertragungskonzepte für Fahrzeugantriebe – heute und zukünftig (erfolgreich studieren)
by Werner KlementAuf Grundlage von Konzeptfahrzeugen werden die spezifischen Anforderungen an Getriebe je nach Antriebskonzept erarbeitet und die technischen Möglichkeiten aufgezeigt. Dabei werden zunächst grundlegende Aspekte wie der Leistungsfluss abgeleitet und anhand praktischer Beispiele verdeutlicht. Es werden Lösungen sowohl für Verbrennungsmotoren in PKW als auch für LKW beschrieben. Im Bereich der Ackerschlepper spielen stufenlose Getriebekonzepte eine bedeutende Rolle. Bei alternativen Fahrzeugantrieben werden die Möglichkeiten von Hybridlösungen sowie die Notwendigkeit einer geeigneten Übersetzung für elektrische Antriebe behandelt. Der Fokus liegt dabei stets auf der Fahrzeuganwendung und den daraus resultierenden Anforderungen an die Übertragungskomponenten bei gegebener Energiequelle. Getriebe sind keine eigenständigen Produkte, sondern fungieren als „Übersetzer“, die passgenau die Anforderungen des jeweiligen Fahrzeugs erfüllen müssen. Oft ergibt sich daraus eine ganzheitliche Lösung, die in Bezug auf Performance und Wirkungsgrad Standardanwendungen überlegen ist. Zahlreiche Beispiele verdeutlichen diese Symbiose und die damit einhergehende Verbesserung der Gesamtsysteme.

Getting Laid
by Barb WebbSustainable living boasts no boundaries. You don’t need massive amounts of acreage or even a fenced-in backyard. We may not be 100 percent sustainable in our lifestyle, but we can become better in-tune with our environment and conscientious of our actions. Like all aspects of life, it’s about balance, finding ways to live a greener, cleaner life within the parameters of your current lifestyle. Top blogger for country living, Rural Mom, shows us the (actually very easy) way to live a sustainable lifestyle without making ourselves crazy in the process. Why does even Jennifer Aniston raise chickens in the Hollywood Hills? Easy answer, it is extremely cool to raise you own hens. Eat the organic eggs and lie back on feather beds from your own brood. And what about you? Author Barb Webb believes there's a farm girl in all of us and she helps you find yours! What initially drew you to the idea of raising chickens, organic gardening and incorporating more sustainable living practices into your lifestyle? Are you interested in saving money, eating a more healthy diet, being on trend, going more "green,” or saving the planet one plant at a time? Whatever the reason, the good new is all of the above motivators are real, tangible end-results of sustainable living. SUSTAINABLE LIVING IS. . . a) reducing your carbon footprint b) eating organic and "living off the land” c) living in harmony with the earth d) using resources efficiently and investing in renewable resources e) creating a better future for the next generation f) protecting and nurturing our natural resources g) eliminating waste and recycling h) actively pursuing a balanced and simplistic lifestyle i) spending money and resources in a frugal way j) our economy, social structure and natural environment working in agreement for the betterment of the world Sustainable living has many definitions and interpretations that have developed over time. In its basic definition, the Merriam Webster Dictionary defines sustainable as "able to be used without being completely used up or destroyed,” and living as "full of life or vigor. ” In a nutshell - as sustainable living agents, we are ultimately defenders, maintainers and supporter of life! Our mission is of the utmost importance to ourselves, our environment and our future generations. Our mission is also easy.
