Design no desenvolvimento de um projeto de interface: aprimorando o processo de modelagem em programas de análise de estruturas tridimensionais por barras. 2020. 142 f. Dissertação (Mestrado em Design) – Escola de Engenharia / Faculdade de Arquitetura, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul, Porto Alegre, 2020. O presente trabalho tem por objetivo criar um protótipo de interface para um software de análise de estruturas tridimensionais por barras, promovendo a usabilidade e reduzindo a carga cognitiva dos usuários no processo de modelagem por meio das heurísticas de usabilidade e da modelagem preditiva do comportamento humano. Para tal, o levantamento bibliográfico compreende temas como Ergonomia, Usabilidade, Modelagem Preditiva do Comportamento Humano, Heurísticas de Usabilidade, Interface Gráfica do Usuário e levantamento de softwares de análise estrutural por barras, através dos quais se busca entender os procedimentos de modelagem estrutural. Para atingir o objetivo geral foram traçados objetivos específicos, os quais consistem na identificação e análise dos procedimentos de modelagem, na verificação de dificuldades de interação e proposição de alternativas para melhoria. A verificação das dificuldades foi realizada através da ferramenta KLM-GOMS (Keystroke-Level Model - Goals, Operators, Methods, Selection Rules), a qual apresenta uma metodologia para mensurar a carga cognitiva, através do tempo de interação necessário, de interação com uma interface para realização de atividades específicas) e das heurísticas da usabilidade. Para tal, foram estabelecidas atividades que deviam ser cumpridas pelos softwares selecionados, resultando em um grande volume de dados. A partir destes dados, forem desenvolvidas alternativas as quais foram concebidas iterativamente, e resultaram em 3 opções: a primeira sugere a mescla dos procedimentos adotados pelos softwares estudados, selecionando-se os que apresentaram os melhores resultados em termos de redução da carga cognitiva. A segunda alternativa abrange esses mesmos procedimentos, porém com melhorias realizadas de acordo com os problemas encontrados através dos tempos mensurados. E a terceira alternativa consiste em considerações de usabilidade, as quais resultam na concepção da reutilização de conceitos e na geração de alternativas diferentes para melhorar o desempenho da modelagem. Esta terceira alternativa da origem ao protótipo que é objetivo da pesquisa. Seu desenvolvimento foi realizado através do Adobe XD, uma ferramenta de prototipagem de interfaces. Durante a criação do protótipo todos os passos obtidos através do KLM-GOMS foram revisados e ajustados, passando de uma ferramenta teórica para prática. O protótipo resultante diminuiu o tempo previsto de modelagem de uma estrutura em cerca de 33% em relação ao melhor resultado obtido pelos softwares estudados. As principais alterações referem-se à interação de modelagem geométrica, aplicação das restrições, e aplicação das cargas. Nessas duas últimas, o resultado foi um novo paradigma de modelagem, o qual apresenta, como principal característica, uma configuração visual e geométrica em detrimento dos formulários normalmente utilizados. Também foi realizada a implementação de catálogos de materiais e seções, os quais apresentam impacto significativo na redução da carga cognitiva. Palavras-chave: Design de Interface.

The present work aims to create a prototype of an interface for software analysis of three- dimensional structures by bars, promoting usability and reducing the cognitive load of users in the modeling process through usability heuristics and predictive modeling of human behavior. To this end, the bibliographic survey comprises topics such as Ergonomics, Usability, Predictive Modeling of Human Behavior, Usability Heuristics, Graphical User Interface and survey of structural analysis software by bars, through which one seeks to understand the structural modeling procedures. To achieve the general objective, specific objectives were drawn up, which consist of the identification and analysis of the modeling procedures, the verification of interaction difficulties and the proposition of alternatives for improvement. The verification of difficulties was performed using the KLM-GOMS tool (Keystroke-Level Model - Goals, Operators, Methods, Selection Rules), which presents a methodology to measure the cognitive load, through the

  • Fenics-HPC: Automated Predictive High-Performance Finite Element
    FEniCS-HPC: Automated predictive high-performance finite element computing with applications in aerodynamics Johan Hoffman1, Johan Jansson2, and Niclas Jansson3 1 Computational Technology Laboratory, School of Computer Science and Communication, KTH, Stockholm, Sweden and BCAM - Basque Center for Applied Mathematics, Bilbao, Spain [email protected] 2 BCAM - Basque Center for Applied Mathematics, Bilbao, Spain and Computational Technology Laboratory, School of Computer Science and Communication, KTH, Stockholm, Sweden [email protected] 3 RIKEN Advanced Institute for Computational Science, Kobe, Japan [email protected] Abstract. Developing multiphysics finite element methods (FEM) and scalable HPC implementations can be very challenging in terms of soft- ware complexity and performance, even more so with the addition of goal-oriented adaptive mesh refinement. To manage the complexity we in this work present general adaptive stabilized methods with automated implementation in the FEniCS-HPC automated open source software framework. This allows taking the weak form of a partial differential equation (PDE) as input in near-mathematical notation and automati- cally generating the low-level implementation source code and auxiliary equations and quantities necessary for the adaptivity. We demonstrate new optimal strong scaling results for the whole adaptive framework applied to turbulent flow on massively parallel architectures down to 25000 vertices per core with ca. 5000 cores with the MPI-based PETSc backend and for assembly down to 500 vertices per core with ca. 20000 cores with the PGAS-based JANPACK backend. As a demonstration of the high impact of the combination of the scalability together with the adaptive methodology allowing prediction of gross quantities in turbulent flow we present an application in aerodynamics of a full DLR-F11 aircraft in connection with the HiLift-PW2 benchmarking workshop with good match to experiments.

  • The DUNE-Fem-DG Framework
    Extendible and Efficient Python Framework for Solving Evolution Equations with Stabilized Discontinuous Galerkin Methods Andreas Dedner, Robert Klofkorn¨ ∗ Abstract This paper discusses a Python interface for the recently published DUNE-FEM- DG module which provides highly efficient implementations of the Discontinuous Galerkin (DG) method for solving a wide range of non linear partial differential equations (PDE). Although the C++ interfaces of DUNE-FEM-DG are highly flexible and customizable, a solid knowledge of C++ is necessary to make use of this powerful tool. With this work easier user interfaces based on Python and the Unified Form Language are provided to open DUNE-FEM-DG for a broader audience. The Python interfaces are demonstrated for both parabolic and first order hyperbolic PDEs. Keywords DUNE,DUNE-FEM, Discontinuous Galerkin, Finite Volume, Python, Advection-Diffusion, Euler, Navier-Stokes MSC (2010): 65M08, 65M60, 35Q31, 35Q90, 68N99 In this paper we introduce a Python layer for the DUNE-FEM-DG1 module [14] which is available open-source. The DUNE-FEM-DG module is based on DUNE [5] and DUNE- FEM [20] in particular and makes use of the infrastructure implemented by DUNE-FEM for seamless integration of parallel-adaptive Finite Element based discretization methods. DUNE-FEM-DG focuses exclusively on Discontinuous Galerkin (DG) methods for var- ious types of problems. The discretizations used in this module are described by two main papers, [17] where we introduced a generic stabilization for convection dominated problems that works on generally unstructured and non-conforming grids and [9] where we introduced a parameter independent DG flux discretization for diffusive operators.

  • Abstractions and Automated Algorithms for Mixed Domain Finite Element Methods
    Abstractions and automated algorithms for mixed domain finite element methods CÉCILE DAVERSIN-CATTY, Simula Research Laboratory, Norway CHRIS N. RICHARDSON, BP Institute, University of Cambridge, United Kingdom ADA J. ELLINGSRUD, Simula Research Laboratory, Norway MARIE E. ROGNES, Simula Research Laboratory, Norway Mixed dimensional partial differential equations (PDEs) are equations coupling unknown fields defined over domains of differing topological dimension. Such equations naturally arise in a wide range of scientific fields including geology, physiology, biology and fracture mechanics. Mixed dimensional PDEs arealso commonly encountered when imposing non-standard conditions over a subspace of lower dimension e.g. through a Lagrange multiplier. In this paper, we present general abstractions and algorithms for finite element discretizations of mixed domain and mixed dimensional PDEs of co-dimension up to one (i.e. nD-mD with jn −mj 6 1). We introduce high level mathematical software abstractions together with lower level algorithms for expressing and efficiently solving such coupled systems. The concepts introduced here have alsobeen implemented in the context of the FEniCS finite element software. We illustrate the new features through a range of examples, including a constrained Poisson problem, a set of Stokes-type flow models and a model for ionic electrodiffusion. CCS Concepts: • Mathematics of computing → Solvers; Partial differential equations; • Computing methodologies → Modeling methodologies. Additional Key Words and Phrases: FEniCS project, mixed dimensional, mixed domains, mixed finite elements 1 INTRODUCTION Mixed dimensional partial differential equations (PDEs) are systems of differential equations coupling solution fields defined over domains of different topological dimensions. Problem settings that call for such equations are in abundance across the natural sciences [27, 47], in multi-physics problems [13, 48], and in mathematics [8, 29].

Munich, September 27, 2019 Richard Hertrich Abstract In partitioned fluid structure interaction, a structure solver and a fluid solver are coupled via boundary conditions at the interface. This thesis presents partitioned FSI simulations using OpenFOAM for the fluid, preCICE as a coupling tool, and a structure solver I developed with the FEM library FEniCS. I extended the preCICE- FEniCS adapter to match the requirements for FSI, such that users can couple FEniCS simulations with vector functions and read conservatively mapped quantities from preCICE to a FEniCS solver. Plus, the adapter now features a mapping between pseudo-3D OpenFOAM and 2D FEniCS. The setup is tested with two FSI scenarios: An elastic flap in a channel and the FSI3 benchmark. I compare the results to validated partitioned FSI methods and reference results in literature to validate the preCICE-FEniCS adapter and the structure solver.

Hierarchical a posteriori error estimation of Bank–Weiser type in the FEniCS Project∗ Raphaël Bulle† Jack S. Hale† Alexei Lozinski‡ Stéphane P. A. Bordas† Franz Chouly§ February 10, 2021 Abstract. In the seminal paper of Bank and Weiser [Math. Comp., 44 (1985), pp. 283–301] a new a posteriori estimator was introduced. This estimator requires the solution of a local Neumann problem on every cell of the finite element mesh. Despite the promise of Bank– Weiser type estimators, namely locality, computational efficiency, and asymptotic sharpness, they have seen little use in practical computational problems. The focus of this contribution is to describe a novel implementation of hierarchical estimators of the Bank–Weiser type in a modern high-level finite element software with automatic code generation capabilities.

The framework— VABS Structural Optimization and Aeroelastic Analysis (SONATA)—incorporates two structural solvers, the commer- ANBA4 cial tool VABS, and the novel open‐source code ANBA4. SONATA also parameterizes the design inputs, post- Parametric design framework processes and visualizes the results, and generates the structural inputs to a variety of aeroelastic analysis Composite structures tools. It is linked to the optimization library OpenMDAO. This work presents the methodology and explains the fundamental approaches of SONATA. Structural characteristics were successfully verified for both VABS and ANBA4 using box beam examples from literature, thereby verifying the parametric approach to generating the topology and mesh in a cross section as well as the solver integration. The framework was furthermore exercised by analyzing and evaluating a fully resolved highly flexible wind turbine blade. Computed structural characteristics correlated between VABS and ANBA4, including off‐diagonal terms. Stresses, strains, and defor- mations were recovered from loads derived through coupling with aeroelastic analysis. The framework, there- fore, proves effective in accurately analyzing and optimizing slender composite structures on a high‐fidelity level that is close to a three‐dimensional finite element model.

Those state variables can describe many microstructural aspects of the material (grain size, dislocation density, hardening state, etc.) or be phenomenological in nature (equivalent plastic strain). The knowledge of those internal state vari- ables allows the computation of local thermodynamic forces which affect the material equilibrium at the structural scale. MFront is an open-source code generator for complex constitutive laws which aims at ease of use, nu- merical efficiency and portability (See [5, 3]). MFront has been developed under very stringent quality requirements in the context of nuclear fuel element simulation under the PLEIADES platform (see [6]), which is co-developed by CEA, EDF and Framatome. MFront provides several domain specific languages (DSL) build on top of the C++ language and asso- ciated with specific integration schemes that allows to readily implement the constitutive equations in source code close to their mathematical expressions.
