Fiber-reinforced composite materials due to their high specific strength, high stiffness and light weight are becoming increasingly used in many engineering industry, especially in the aerospace, marin and civil, etc. In this paper, the buckling load and mode shapes of composite laminates with elliptical cross-section including transverse shear deformations are analyzed. For solving this problems, a versatile flat shell element has been developed by combining a membrane element with drilling degree-of-freedom and a plate bending element. Also, an improved shell element has been established by the combined use of the addition of enhanced assumed strain and the substitute shear strain fields. The combined influence of shell geometry and elliptical cross-sectional parameter, fiber angle, and lay-up on the buckling loads of elliptical cylinder is examined. The critical buckling loads and mode shapes analyzed here may serve as a benchmark for future investigations.

In this study, a refined beam analysis model has been developed for multi-celled composite blades with elliptic cross-sections. Reissner's semi-complimentary energy functional is introduced to describe the beam theory and also to deal with the mixed-nature of the formulation. The wail of elliptic sections is discretized into finite number of elements along the contour line and Gauss integration is applied to obtain the section properties. For each cell of the section, a total of four continuity conditions are used to impose proper constraints for the section. The theory is applied to single- and double-celled composite blades with elliptic cross-sections and is validated with detailed finite element analysis results.

To grasp the characteristics of hydrodynamic pressure distribution on the hull surface of the chine-type ship in vertical vibration of high frequency the hydrodynamic pressure on the surface of two dimensional cylinders of the curvilinear-element section with chines is investigated in comparison with those of the rectangular section, of the circular section, of the elliptical section, of the triangular section, and of the Lewis form of hypotrocoidal character. The results on the chine-type show markably different characteristics in the pressure distribution from the others.

In this study, expressions for the magnetic field and magnetic gradient tensor due to an elliptical disk were derived. Igneous intrusions and kimberlite structures often have elliptical cylinders with axial symmetry and elliptical cross sections. An elliptical cylinder with varying cross-sectional areas was approximated using stacks of elliptical disks. The magnetic fields of elliptical disks were derived using the Poisson relation, which includes the direction of magnetization in the gravity gradient tensor, as described in a previous study (Rim, 2024). The magnetic gradient tensor due to an elliptical disk is derived by differentiating the magnetic fields, which is equivalent to obtaining ten triple-derivative functions acquired by differentiating the gravitational potential of the elliptical disk three times in each axis direction. Because it is possible to exchange the order of differentiation, the magnetic gradient tensor is derived by differentiating the gravitational potential of the elliptical disk three times, which is then converted into a complex line integral along the closed boundary curve of the elliptical disk in the complex plane. The expressions for the magnetic field and magnetic gradient tensor derived from a complex line integral in complex plane are perfectly consistent with those of the circular disk derived from the Lipschitz-Hankel integral.

This paper presents a new approach for modeling human limbs shape from 3D scan data. Based on the cylindrical structure of limbs, the overall shape is approximated with a set of ellipsoids through ellipsoid fitting and interpolation of fit-ellipsoids. Then, the smooth domain surface representing the coarse shape is generated as the envelope surface of ellipsoidal sweep, and the fine details are reconstructed by constructing parametric displacement function on the domain surface. For fast calculation, the envelope surface is approximated with ellipse sweep surface, and points on the reconstructed surface are mapped onto the corresponding ellipsoid. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach for skeleton-driven body deformation.

Applications of commercial software DEFORM-3DTM for 3-D simulation in extrusion process are developed for the analysis of twisting of extruded products. Because the elliptical shape has at least one line symmetry, the twisting is not occured during the extrusion. But, the results of extrusion simulation of the elliptical shape show that the twisted boundary of the die surface makes the material inside die surface rotate with the constant angular velocity. Otherwise, the simulation results of the S shaped product show that the twisting can be occured by the only 180$^{\circ}$rotation symmetry of S shape without no line symmetry and show that the angular velocity increases by the only 180$^{\circ}$rotation symmetry without no twisted die surface between on the die entrance section and on the die exit section. The results of the analysis show that the angular velocity of the extruded product changes with die length and friction condition.

The effects of the ovalization of the tangential pipes to the elbows are analyzed. The geometric nonlinear behaviors of the elbows are shown with the element capable of ovalization. The relationships between the length of the tangential pipes in the models and the bend angles of the elbows are analyzed to supplement the ASME code. And the proper length of the tangential pipes for the elbow models are suggested.

This study derives the expressions of vector gravity and gravity gradient tensor due to an elliptical cylinder. The vector gravity for an arbitrary three-dimensional (3D) body is obtained by differentiating the gravitational potential, including the triple integral, according to the shape of the body in each axis direction. The vector gravity of the 3D body with axial symmetry is integrated along the axial direction and reduced to a double integral. The complex Green's theorem using complex conjugates subsequently converts the double integral into a one-dimensional (1D) closed-line integral. Finally, the vector gravity due to the elliptical cylinder is derived using 1D numerical integration by parameterizing a boundary of the elliptical cross-section as a closed line. Similarly, the gravity gradient tensor due to the elliptical cylinder is second-order differentiated from the gravitational potential, including the triple integral, and integrated along the vertical axis direction reducing it to a double integral. Consequently, all the components of the gravity gradient tensor due to an elliptical cylinder are derived using complex Green's theorem as used in the case of vector gravity.

A computer code has been developed to simulate three-dimensional viscous flows over a ship-stern. Semi-elliptic forms of Reynolds equations are adopted and numerically generated body-fitted coordinate systems are used to resolve complex geometries of the ship-hull. A standard form of $k-\varepsilon$ turbulence model is adopted for evaluation of the Reynolds stresses. Turbulent flows on a model with 3:1 elliptic sections and the SSPA-720 container ship model are predicted by using the code. Calculated pressure distributions of hull-surfaces and mean velocity distributions are generally in good agreements with measured values in wind-tunnels. But turbulent kinetic energies tend to be over-estimated near the stern in comparison with measured data.
