A Brief Review on Induction heating
Abstract: Induction heating is the method of heating an electrically conducting material (usually a metal) by electromagnetic induction, through eddy currents generating heat in the object. An induction heater is an electromagnet and an electronic oscillator that passes through the electromagnet through a high-frequency alternating current (AC). The rapidly alternating magnetic field penetrates the artifact, producing the conductor's electrical currents called eddy currents. The eddy currents flow through Joule heating through …

Nonlinear Finite Element Approaches for Structural Failure Prediction: A Comparative Assessment with Case Studies
Abstract: Abstract Nonlinear finite element methods (NLFEM) have become indispensable for predicting structural failure in complex engineering systems, particularly where linear models fail to capture critical behaviors, such as large deformations, crack propagation, and post-buckling responses. This study investigates and compares several state-of-the-art NLFEM techniques – namely cohesive zone modeling (CZM), extended finite element method (XFEM), and phase-field fracture modelling – in the context of structural failure prediction. Three representative case …
